What did Trump say?
In a speech in Doha, Qatar, Trump said, "I don't want to say I did it, but I certainly helped solve the problem between Pakistan and India last week, which was becoming more and more hostile, and all of a sudden, you start seeing a different type of missiles, and we solved it.
I hope I don't get out of here and find out two days later that it's not solved, but I think it's solved, and we talked to them about trade. Let's do trade, and Pakistan was very happy with it, and India was very happy with it, and I think they're on their way
