Kananaskis/Delhi/Hyderabad, June 18 (Maxim News): Prime Minister narendra Modi on Wednesday spoke with US President Donald Trump and set the record straight that Operation Sindoor was “paused” following a request from Pakistan and not due to mediation or offer of a trade deal by the US.
In a 35 minute phone call with Trump, Modi briefed the US President on Operation Sindoor launched by India against terror sites in Pakistan and made it clear that countries that support terrorism must face the consequences. This was the first conversation between Trump and Modi after the pause in Operation Sindoor last month.
“PM Modi clarified that no topics related to trade were discussed in connection with Operation Sindoor. he asserted that India has never accepted third-party mediation and will not accept such mediation in the future.” Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said in a statement on the Modi-Trump phone call. He said Trump invited Modi, who was here to attend the G-7 meeting, to visit the US on his return journey from Canada.
However, Modi said he could not accept the invitation due to a pre-existing schedule. Modi invited Trump to visit India for the Quad Summit likely later this year. Trump had left the meeting mid-way amid rising hostilities between Israel and Iran.

The Prime Minister told Trump clearly that in this entire chain of events, there was no discussion of an India-US trade deal and there was no reference to US mediation between India and Pakistan, Misri said.
Modi made it clear that the decision to halt military action was taken in direct talks between India and Pakistan using the existing channels and at the insistence of Pakistan.
PM Modi firmly made it clear that India will not accept any mediation in its dealings with Pakistan and there is bipartisan/political unity on this issue. Misri said Trump understood the issue after hearing the Prime Minister and expressed support for India’s fight against terrorism.
“Modi told Trump that henceforth India will not treat terrorism as a proxy war but as an act of war and Operation Sindoor was still continuing,” Misri said, Misri said Modi and Trump were scheduled to meet on the sidelines of the G-7 meeting, but it could not fructify as the US President left early. he said Trump insisted on having conversation with Modi after which the call was set up.
Modi told Trump that he had expressed his resolve to take action against terrorism after the Pahalgam attack. The Pahalgam attack. The prime Minister told Trump that India had targeted terror sites inside Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and Pakistan on the intervening night of may 6-7. he made it clear that India’s action was “measured, precise and non-escalatory”.
