WASHINGTON: (May 10) India and Pakistan have agreed to a “full and immediate” ceasefire, President Donald Trump announced on Saturday, claiming that it was a result of the US-mediated talks.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio termed it a US-brokered ceasefire while commending Prime Ministers Narendra Modi and Shehbaz Sharif on “their wisdom, prudence, and statesmanship in choosing the path of peace.”
The ceasefire came hours after the militaries of India and Pakistan attacked each other’s military facilities, dangerously escalating the ongoing conflict.
