Talking about US President Donald Trump's claim that he brokered a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor said, "If there was any persuasion...it would've been persuasion of the Pakistanis." He added, "We (India) don't need to be persuaded (to end conflict) because we don't want war." Tharoor said India has "enormous respect" for American presidency.
