Cong to PM Modi: Come clean on Trump's claim on ceasefire

The Congress on Wednesday again asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to come clean on the repeated claims being bragged by US President Donald Trump that it was the US that brokered the ceasefire between India and Pakistan.

India and Pakistan had agreed to a ceasefire on May 10 after four days of intense hostilities.

Speaking at the US-Saudi Arabia Investment Forum, Donald Trump on Wednesday claimed he persuaded both India and Pakistan to "trade goods, not nuclear missiles."

Crediting trade diplomacy to be the crux of the efforts for easing tensions, Mr Trump also praised leaders of both countries as "smart and strong."
