Doubling down his attack on the BJP, Rahul said, “I know the BJP-RSS people. If you put even a little pressure and give them just a slight push, they run away out of fear.””Donald Trump called from there and said ‘Narender… surrender’. Here Narendra Modi followed Trump’s gesture by saying ‘Yes Sir’,” he claimed.Notably, Trump has continued to claim that American intervention helped avert a potential nuclear conflict between India and Pakistan, after both countries agreed to a ceasefire following a series of clashes.India has consistently rejected the claim, stating that neither the US nor its threat of tariffs played any role in the ceasefire talks with Pakistan.”From the time Operation Sindoor commenced on May 7 till the time of cessation on May 10, there was conversation between India and the US. But the issue of tariffs never came up in these discussions,” MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said at the weekly press briefing on May 29.External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar had also clarified that India and Pakistan were “very, very far away” from a nuclear conflict during their recent clashes.In an interview to German newspaper FAZ, Jaishankar, in an apparent criticism of the West, said there has been a tendency to link everything in “our part of the world” to a “nuclear problem.”
