NEW YORK/WASHINGTON:President Donald Trump on Monday reiterated his claim that his administration stopped a “nuclear conflict” between India and Pakistan, telling the South Asian neighbours that America will do a “lot of trade” with them if they end hostilities.
“On Saturday, my administration helped broker a full and immediate ceasefire, I think, a permanent one between India and Pakistan, ending a dangerous conflict of two nations with lots of nuclear weapons,” Trump said at the start of a press conference in the White House where he announced that he will set 30-day deadline for drugmakers to lower cost of prescription drugs.
He started the briefing by describing “the historic events that took place over the last few days” in the Indian subcontinent.
