US President Donald Trump said his talking to India and Pakistan and bringing them back from the brink is a “bigger success” than he’ll ever be given credit for, saying there was “great hatred” among the two nations and tensions got to a point where the next phase was probably “nuclear”.
“A bigger success than I’ll ever be given credit for. Those are major nuclear powers ,” Trump said in an interview to Fox News on Friday. Trump was asked about the “couple of foreign policy successes” before his trip to West Asia, when he picked up the phone and called India and Pakistan. Trump replied, “I did, ya”.
The interviewer said that was a success. “And the next phase was probably, did you see where it was getting? It was tit for tat. It was getting deeper and more, I mean, more missiles, everyone was ‘stronger, stronger’, so to a point where the next one’s going to be, you know what? The N word. You know the N word is, right?” Trump asked the interviewer, to which he replied “nuclear”.
“That’s a very nasty word, right? In a lot of ways. The N word used in a nuclear sense, that’s the worst thing that can happen. And I think they were very close. The hatred was great. And I said, ‘We’re going to talk about trade’,” Trump said.
He went on to say that “I’m using trade to settle scores and to make peace.
