This statement is true. In Greek mythology, Zeus arranged the wedding between Thetis and Peleus, and this event led to the start of the Trojan War because Eris, the goddess of discord, was not invited and brought a golden apple inscribed "For the Fairest" which caused a dispute among Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite. Zeus then tasked Paris of Troy to judge which goddess was the fairest, and his decision to give the apple to Aphrodite, who promised him the love of the most beautiful woman in the world, led to the abduction of Helen of Troy and the Trojan War.
