Trump Proposes Solution for Kashmir Amid Rising Tensions
In a recent post on Truth Social, President Donald Trump expressed his intent to work with India and Pakistan to find a resolution for the long-standing Kashmir conflict, claiming a potential solution could be reached after "a thousand years." This remark, however, has sparked backlash, with Indian MP Manish Tewari highlighting that the conflict is not an ancient narrative, but rather a situation stemming from 1947.
Pakistan’s Foreign Office reiterated that any lasting resolution must prioritize the Kashmiri people’s right to self-determination. The current state in Kashmir remains dire, with author Mirza Waheed describing recent escalations as "the most intense and the most dangerous." He recounted harrowing accounts from individuals in Kashmir who have faced severe violence and destruction, stating many have been unable to sleep while fleeing bombarded homes.
Despite accusations of ceasefire violations from both sides, there remains a collective relief that the ceasefire continues to hold. Sky News correspondent Cordelia Lynch noted a prevailing sense of triumphalism in Pakistan, where gratitude towards Trump’s intervention is expressed, in stark contrast to India’s muted response regarding the U.S. involvement.
The ceasefire follows a series of violent exchanges, with India conducting strikes in response to a militant attack that resulted in significant civilian casualties. Just before the ceasefire was announced, Pakistan targeted multiple zones in India with missiles, further escalating tensions. As the situation unfolds, the possibility for peace remains uncertain in a region marked by decades of strife.
