Modi to Trump: No US role behind ceasefire with Pakistan
INDIA: India‘s prime minister, Narendra Modi, told US President Donald Trump in a phone call that May’s ceasefire between India and Pakistan was achieved through direct talks between the militaries and not with US mediation.
That’s according to leading Indian diplomat Vikram Misri, who released a video statement after the phone call on Wednesday.
The call was the first conversation between the two leaders since April 22, when Trump called Modi to express condolences for the 26 civilians killed in the Pahalgam attack in Indian-Administered Kashmir, the Foreign Secretary said.
“PM Modi told President Trump, in clear terms, that there was no talk of an India-US trade deal or any US mediation at any point during the time frame between the April 22 attack and the ceasefire on May 10. Ceasefire talks took place directly between the militaries of India and Pakistan, through their existing channels. That too, at the request of Pakistan,” Misri said in the statement.
“PM Modi strongly emphasized that India has never accepted third-party mediation and nor will it in the future.”
