'35 million would have died if...': Trump's new claim on India-Pakistan conflict

In a recent statement, former US President Donald Trump claimed that the India-Pakistan conflict could have potentially resulted in the deaths of 35 million people had it escalated into a nuclear war. Trump emphasized the severity of the situation, suggesting that the geopolitical tensions between the two nuclear-armed nations were on the verge of spiraling out of control. His comments reflect ongoing concerns about regional stability in South Asia, where historical animosities and territorial disputes have long posed threats to peace. Trump’s assertion highlights the critical role of diplomatic interventions in preventing conflicts that could have catastrophic consequences. His remarks come in the context of broader discussions on international relations and security, particularly regarding nuclear proliferation and the importance of maintaining dialogue between rival nations. The statement serves as a reminder of the delicate balance of power in the region and the potential human cost of military escalation.
