Trump Claims He Prevented India-Pakistan Nuclear War, Pushes New Arms Treaty

  • Donald Trump asserted on Truth Social that he stopped nuclear wars, including between India and Pakistan, while advocating for a new arms control treaty.
  • His claims came hours after the 2010 New START treaty, the last major US-Russia nuclear agreement, formally lapsed.
  • India's official military record contradicts Trump, stating Pakistan sought a halt to hostilities after suffering losses in Operation Sindoor, not due to international pressure.
  • Indian officials consistently maintain the crisis was resolved bilaterally and militarily, rejecting foreign intervention.
  • Trump has repeatedly made this claim since June 2025, but India, including PM Narendra Modi, has consistently pushed back against his narrative.
