While speaking in Riyadh, U.S. President Donald Trump reiterated his claim of brokering the recent India-Pakistan ceasefire, saying, “I said, if it’s real, let’s trade goods, not nuclear missiles.” Trump praised Secretary of State Marco Rubio for his role in what he described as a historic intervention. However, India firmly denied any U.S. involvement, maintaining the ceasefire resulted from direct talks between the countries' military officials. The Ministry of External Affairs emphasized that all matters concerning Jammu and Kashmir are internal and will only be resolved bilaterally with Pakistan, not through third-party mediation.
