New Delhi: US President Donald Trump has reignited debate over the May 2025 India Pakistan conflict with fresh remarks about his role during Operation Sindoor. Speaking during his State of the Union address, Trump asserted that his intervention prevented a potential nuclear confrontation between the two countries, a claim that rapidly gained traction across social media platforms.
Trump stated that India and Pakistan were on the brink of nuclear war and suggested that his mediation brought about a ceasefire. He said that 35 million people had told him that Pakistan’s Prime Minister would have died in Indian strikes if the United States had not stepped in. The remark triggered widespread confusion, with some interpreting it as Trump directly claiming he saved Shehbaz Sharif from certain death, while others understood it as a reference to what he had been told by unnamed individuals.
During the address, Trump declared that he had ended eight wars within the first ten months of his second term and described the India Pakistan standoff as one of the most dangerous flashpoints. He also maintained that without his involvement, the situation could have escalated into a nuclear exchange. Additionally, he said the United States was working to resolve the ongoing Russia Ukraine conflict, arguing that it would not have occurred had he remained in office instead of Joe Biden.
Online reactions were swift and sharply divided. Some users mocked the suggestion that the Pakistani Prime Minister’s life was directly saved by US intervention. Others accused Trump of repeatedly taking credit for diplomatic efforts. A few commentators likened his recurring retelling of the episode to a television rerun, while supporters praised what they viewed as decisive leadership.
The remarks have once again placed Trump’s claims about Operation Sindoor under intense public scrutiny, with debate continuing over the accuracy and interpretation of his statements.
