Liar vs Liar! Trump once again claims that he was the architect of the "ceasefire" immediately after Indian Foreign Secretary claims that Modi has refuted it in telephonic conversation with Trump

After his boss the External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar (just watch::<https://www.instagram.com/reel/DKAJN46vPpw/>), now the Foreign Secretary, Vijay Misri, has been fielded to deny Trump's role -- as repeatedly claimed by Trump from the very day one, i.e. May 10 itself, while breaking the news-in-making to the world -- in bringing about the "ceasefire" (or "temporary cessation" in fighting?) between India and Pakistan on Modi's behalf.

By way of briefing the Indian version of a telephonic talk between Modi and Trump a while earlier (ref.: <https://youtu.be/tLu4OyTUgsM>.

Significantly, just the following day of the ceasefire -- on May 11, the Pakistani Prime Minister had profusely thanked Trump for being the peacemaker (ref.: <https://x.com/CMShehbaz/status/1921511016082370599>).

Modi himself, however, still remains intriguingly tight-lipped. (The 56" yet to summon the courage to directly contradict the (far) bigger Bully!?)

Now, here's Trump again:

<<Asked what he wanted to achieve from the [unprecedented] meeting [with Pakistan's military chief], Trump told reporters at the White House: "Well, I stopped a war ... I love Pakistan. I think (Indian Prime Minister Narendra) Modi is a fantastic man. I spoke to him last night. We're going to make a trade deal with Modi of India.

"But I stopped the war between Pakistan and India. This man was extremely influential in stopping it from the Pakistan side, Modi from the India side and others," he did, referring to [Field Marshal Asim] Munir. "They were going at it - and they're both nuclear countries. I got it stopped.">>
