White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Tuesday once again claimed that US President Donald Trump has ended the military conflict between India and Pakistan. `The President is using the might of American strength to demand that respect from our allies, our friends, our adversaries all around the world,` Leavitt said at a press briefing.

She said that it was seen not only in the progress with Russia and Ukraine but also `in the closing of seven global conflicts around the world.` `We`ve seen it with the end of the conflict between India and Pakistan, which could have resulted in a nuclear war if we had not had a President who believed in the strength and the leverage that comes with the job of being the President of the United States of America,` Leavitt said.

In an answer to another question, Leavitt said that Trump used trade `in a very powerful way as leverage` to bring the India-Pakistan conflict to an end. Since May 10, when Trump announced on social media that India and Pakistan had agreed to a `full and immediate` ceasefire after a `long night` of talks mediated by Washington, he has repeated his claim over 40 times that he `helped settle` the tensions between India and Pakistan.
