After intense U.S.-led talks, India and Pakistan reached a ceasefire agreement following clashes that escalated from a recent attack blamed on Pakistan. However, both nations reported violations shortly after, raising tensions once again. Indian officials claimed Pakistan was responsible for the breaches, while Pakistan asserted its commitment to peace. The ceasefire aims to mitigate ongoing military confrontations, especially in Kashmir, where recent violence has sparked international concerns. The agreement received notable acknowledgment from U.S. President Donald Trump, who praised both nations for their decision.
"We call upon Pakistan to take appropriate steps to address these violations and deal with the situation with seriousness and responsibility," he said at a news conference in New Delhi.
In Islamabad, Pakistan's Foreign Ministry blamed Indian forces for initiating the ceasefire violation. The ministry said Pakistan remains committed to the agreement and its forces were handling the situation with responsibility and restraint.
"Congratulations to both Countries on using Common Sense and Great Intelligence. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" said U.S. President Donald Trump.
Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said in a speech Saturday that his country agreed to the ceasefire in the larger interest of peace in the region.
