President Trump announced Saturday that India and Pakistan had agreed to a cease-fire, after four days of the most widespread fighting between the nuclear-armed neighbors in decades.
“After a long night of talks mediated by the United States, I am pleased to announce that India and Pakistan have agreed to a FULL AND IMMEDIATE CEASEFIRE,” Mr. Trump posted on Truth Social, congratulating the two countries on using “Common Sense and Great Intelligence.”
Indian and Pakistani officials confirmed the cease-fire in social media posts, though neither immediately mentioned an American role.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement that he and Vice President JD Vance had engaged with senior officials from both countries, including their prime ministers, over 48 hours. In addition to the cease-fire, India and Pakistan also agreed to “start talks on a broad set of issues at a neutral site,” Mr. Rubio said.
However, India’s foreign ministry contradicted Mr. Rubio, saying the cease-fire was worked out directly between India and Pakistan, and that there had been no decision to hold talks on any other issue at any location.
