U.S. President Donald Trump has reignited controversy by claiming that Washington played a key role in mediating the 2019 ceasefire between India and Pakistan, a statement firmly denied by New Delhi. In his latest remarks, Trump revised his own account of the India-Pakistan standoff, asserting that "seven to eight aircraft were downed" before a U.S.-led diplomatic push brought hostilities to a halt. Indian officials maintain that no U.S. involvement occurred, reaffirming their position that the ceasefire was achieved independently. WATCH
