Donald Trump, after initially claiming to have brokered peace between India and Pakistan, has walked back his statement. He now says he doesn't want full credit but acknowledges playing a role in de-escalating tensions between the two nations.

President Donald Trump said the promise of trade with the U.S. was a big reason the two sides stopped fighting.

US President Donald Trump said on Thursday that hostilities between Pakistan and India were settled, after he urged the two countries to focus on trade instead of war, and asked the tech giant Apple to manufacture its products in the United States instead of India.
