ANI, Washington. US President Trump has made a sensational claim regarding his relations with India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Trump has said that India has substantially reduced its trade and energy ties with Russia at his request. According to Trump, this move is part of his strategy to end the Russia-Ukraine war.

Distance from Russia and peace initiative

In a recent address, President Trump said, "I have a wonderful relationship with India. India was getting oil from Russia, but at my request they have significantly reduced their ties to Russia. We want to end a terrible war that is killing about 25,000 people every month."

Trump stressed that his close friendship with Prime Minister Modi has played an important role in global diplomacy and India's move is a major change towards peacekeeping.

India-Pakistan war stopped by threat of 200% tariff

Trump made a big revelation not only about Russia but also about the tension between India and Pakistan. He claimed that he prevented a possible war between the two countries through economic pressure.

Use of economic weapon: Trump said, "I stopped the war between India and Pakistan. I told them clearly - 'If you want to fight, fine, but then you will not be able to trade with America. I will impose 200% tariff on both the countries'."

Result of peace: According to Trump, immediately after this economic threat, the leadership of both the countries contacted him and confirmed to establish peace.

New era of trade and diplomacy

President Trump clarified that his 'America First' policy and tariffs are being used not just for revenue, but also to maintain peace in the world. Praising Prime Minister Modi, he said that India is now connecting more strongly with America commercially.

Experts believe that this statement of Trump can create a new stir in the triangular relations between Russia, India and America in the coming times. However, there has been no official confirmation yet from the Indian government on the claim of reducing oil imports from Russia.
