NEW DELHI: US President Donald Trump on Thursday once again boasted about his tariff-centred approach to peace negotiations. Speaking at an event of his self-styled UN-like body, the "Board of Peace," he referred to the India-Pakistan military tensions of May 2025 and claimed he had threatened to impose "200 per cent tariff" on both countries if they had continued fighting.
His remarks came in the presence of Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who attended the Board of Peace event. India also attended the inaugural meeting of US President Donald Trump’s Board of Peace on Gaza as an “observer” country.
