The United States has hinted that President Donald Trump could serve as a mediator in the ongoing Kashmir conflict between Pakistan and India, following a deadly attack in Pahalgam that has heightened tensions between the two nations.
US Shows Interest in Mediating Kashmir Conflict
The United States has indicated that President Donald Trump is willing to resolve the Kashmir dispute. This comes after a deadly attack in Pahalgam on April 22, which increased tensions between India and Pakistan.
State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce addressed the media about Trump’s possible role. She said, “President Trump has always aimed to end long-standing global conflicts. His actions often bring together nations that are unwilling to talk. So, it’s no surprise that he may want to step in here too.”
Diplomatic Push by Pakistan
Pakistan has been working hard to counter India’s claims about the Pahalgam incident. The government strongly denies any involvement in the attack. In response, a parliamentary delegation led by PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari visited Washington to discuss the situation.
During the visit, they met with US officials including Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Allison Hooker. Tammy Bruce confirmed that “State Department officials welcomed the delegation and emphasized support for the ongoing ceasefire between India and Pakistan.”
Global Outreach and Peace Efforts
Trump willing to resolve Kashmir reflects a broader US interest in South Asian stability. According to Bruce, Trump’s history of successful diplomacy could help bring both nations to the table. The US sees maintaining peace in the region as a top priority.
Pakistan is also reaching out to other global powers. The delegation plans visits to London and Brussels to present Islamabad’s case for peace in Kashmir. These efforts show Pakistan’s commitment to peaceful, diplomatic solutions over military escalation.
