US Congressman: Trump's Claims on Indo-Pak Conflict Baseless
After some fighting between India and Pakistan, former President Trump said he helped stop it.
But a US Congressman, Thanedar, said Trump was just trying to get attention.
He said Trump wasn't actually involved and that India and Pakistan worked things out on their own.
Thanedar thinks Trump just likes being in the news.
He believes Trump's claims are untrue and politically motivated.
India says they handled it themselves.
It was never a full war, so there was no agreement to stop it.
US Congressman Thanedar disputed Trump's claims of mediating an end to the Indo-Pak conflict.
Thanedar accused Trump of seeking political mileage from the situation.
India and Pakistan resolved the issue themselves, according to Thanedar.
Trump announced the agreement without any US mediation.
Thanedar stated there was no war, therefore no ceasefire, so there was nothing for Trump to negotiate.
