‘Trump inflates his involvement’: Foreign Policy editor on India-Pak ceasefire

#indiapakistan #operationsindoor #donaldtrump To Delhi’s chagrin, US president Donald Trump announced a ceasefire and claimed it was brokered by him after the conflict between India and Pakistan flared up following Operation Sindoor. “The US-India relationship is strong as it predates Trump. It goes from Clinton to Bush to Obama to Trump to Biden and Trump again… There is bipartisan belief [in the US] that this relationship is only going to get stronger. I am not seeing any change in the trajectory despite the last four weeks,” Ravi Agrawal, editor of the Foreign Policy magazine and a geopolitical expert, said in an interview with Newslaundry. After Trump’s ceasefire claim following India’s Operation Sindoor in response to a terror attack in Pahalgam, India has objected to it. Should Trump’s claims be seen as a betrayal towards PM Narendra Modi? Agrawal, former Delhi bureau chief of CNN, said India should not read much into Trump claims, considering: he likes to “inflate his involvement” and “claim victories when there are none”. “I wouldn’t see it as a betrayal. This is Trump acting exactly as you would expect him to act,” he said. In this interview, Agrawal also explains the role of the Quad bloc, India-US tariff talks, how misinformation and disinformation led to an off-ramp and much more. Watch.
