Trump Reiterates India-Pakistan Ceasefire Claim '200 pc Tariffs, If You Fight'

US President Donald Trump reiterated his claim of saving millions of lives during the India and Pakistan conflict in 2024, stating that he threatened to impose a "200 per cent tariff" and both countries halted the conflict as there's "nothing like money." 

Speaking at his Board of Peace, Trump also increased the number of jets that were shot down during the conflict, taking the number to 11 from his previous claims of eight. 

Trump again repeated that he called Prime Minister Narendra Modi to



resolve the conflict, despite India's rejection of any third-party mediation.

"He (Pakistani PM) said in front of our Chief of Staff that President Trump saved 25 million lives when he stopped the war between us and India...That war was raging. Planes were being shot down. 

And I got on the phone with both of them, and I knew them a little bit. I knew Prime Minister Modi very well...I called them, and I said, listen, I'm not doing trade deals with you two guys if you don't settle this up," Trump said.
