US President Donald Trump has said he would work with Pakistan and India to see if a solution could be reached to the Kashmir dispute, just a day after his country mediated a ceasefire between the South Asian neighbours.
“I am very proud of the strong and unwaveringly powerful leadership of India and Pakistan for having the strength, wisdom, and fortitude to fully know and understand that it was time to stop the current aggression that could have lead to to the death and destruction of so many, and so much,” Trump said on Truth Social.
“Additionally, I will work with you both to see if, after a ‘thousand years’, a solution can be arrived at concerning Kashmir. God Bless the leadership of India and Pakistan on a job well done!!!” the US president added.
He highlighted: “Millions of good and innocent people could have died! Your legacy is greatly enhanced by your brave actions. I am proud that the USA was able to help you arrive at this historic and heroic decision.”
The US president further said he would “substantially” increase trade with both Pakistan and India, terming them “great nations”.
