South Asia analyst Michael Kugelman has termed the US’s offer to assist in de-escalating tensions between India and Pakistan as the “most consequential move”.
“This is the most consequential move the US has made since the crisis — now a war — began. If you want to talk to the Pakistanis about de-escalation, you need to talk to [COAS] Gen Munir. He’s driving the Pakistani response,” Kugelman said on X.
