Washington, D.C. – Former U.S. President Donald Trump made a startling revelation about one of the most dangerous flashpoints in South Asia’s history, claiming that the conflict between India and Pakistan nearly escalated into a nuclear war.
Speaking about the crisis, Trump said:
“The war with India and Pakistan was the next level that was going to be a nuclear war… They already shot down seven jets – that was raging.”
Trump’s remarks appear to reference the 2019 Pulwama-Balakot crisis, when tensions between New Delhi and Islamabad spiked after a deadly terrorist attack in Kashmir. In retaliation, India carried out airstrikes deep inside Pakistani territory, prompting Pakistan to respond with its own air operations. During the skirmishes, fighter jets were shot down, and the world watched anxiously as two nuclear-armed neighbors moved dangerously close to all-out war.
At the time, global leaders, including the United States, scrambled to defuse the crisis. Trump now suggests that U.S. intervention played a critical role in preventing the situation from spiraling into a nuclear exchange that could have destabilized not only South Asia but the entire world.
The India-Pakistan conflict remains one of the world’s most volatile rivalries, with both nations maintaining significant nuclear arsenals. Experts warn that any miscalculation or escalation has the potential to trigger catastrophic consequences.
Trump’s comments reignite debate over how fragile peace remains in the region — and highlight the importance of diplomacy, restraint, and crisis management in avoiding disaster.
