Washington: Efforts have begun to stop India's attack on Pakistan. America has said that to stop the tension between the two countries, Foreign Minister Marco Rubio will talk to the foreign ministers of India and Pakistan over the phone. After the Pahalgam terrorist attack, there is a fear that India may attack Pakistan, which may start a war between the two countries. US State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce has said on the question of reporters that "We are contacting both the sides and are definitely telling them not to escalate the situation further."
The US State Department spokesperson has said that "the (Foreign) Secretary hopes to speak to the foreign ministers of Pakistan and India today or tomorrow (according to US time)." He said, "They are also encouraging other national leaders, other foreign ministers to contact countries on this issue." Let us tell you that after the Pahalgam terrorist attack, America has shown solidarity with India. From US President Donald Trump to FBI Chief Kash Patel and US Intelligence Chief Tulsi Gabbard have also condemned the Pahalgam terrorist attack and said that they will provide all possible help.
Will America try to mediate?
This time, experts of international affairs are surprised that India and Pakistan are standing on the brink of war, while there is already a war going on between Ukraine and Russia and Israel has not yet ended the war against Hamas, yet America or other countries of the world are not showing any activism to reduce the tension between India and Pakistan. Statements have definitely been issued by some countries, but they are just formal statements. Iran has given a statement to mediate. Whereas Saudi Arabia has officially contacted the leaders of India and Pakistan only once. However, the United Nations is now showing activism and the UN Chief has appealed to both countries to maintain peace.
The US State Department has also appealed to Marco Rubio to talk to the foreign ministers of India and Pakistan at a time when Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given the Indian Army the freedom to take action against Pakistan as per its own discretion. Therefore, questions are being raised as to why America has remembered diplomacy so late? India has accused Pakistan of supporting the Pahalgam terrorist attack. Pakistan is denying this allegation and is claiming that India is going to attack in the next few hours. From Pakistan's Defense Minister Asif Khawaja to Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, everyone is saying that Pakistan is going to be attacked within the next 24 to 36 hours.
