US has applauded the ceasefire agreement between Pakistan and India and has emphasised the need for peace and diplomacy for the solution of problems. This was stated by the State Department, Deputy Spokesperson Tommy Pigott while addressing a press conference. \u201cWe welcome the ceasefire reached between India and Pakistan this weekend and commend both prime ministers for choosing the path of peace,\u201d stated Pigott during the briefing. \u201cOur focus remains on encouraging direct communication between the parties to preserve regional stability.\u201d Regarding questions about the geopolitical implications, Pigott reiterated the administration\u2019s commitment to peacebuilding efforts globally, highlighting President Trump\u2019s role as a peacemaker and dealmaker. The spokesperson declined to speculate further on specific geopolitical developments, emphasizing the administration\u2019s steadfast support for conflict resolution and peace initiatives. The ceasefire, which came into effect over the weekend, marks a positive step towards reducing tensions between the two nations. The US government continues to monitor the situation closely while encouraging further dialogue and cooperation between India and Pakistan. The announcement follows praise from President Trump, who hailed the decision as a testament to strength, wisdom, and fortitude on both sides. Eleven soldiers and 40 civilians were martyred while 78 soldiers and 121 civilians sustained injuries during Indian aggression against Pakistan, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Tuesday. According to the ISPR, \u201cOn the night of 6-7 May 2025, the Indian Armed Forces launched unprovoked and reprehensible dastardly attacks targeting innocent civilians, including women, children, and the elderly\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
