Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar says recent ceasefire between Pakistan and India is a result of the diplomatic efforts of different countries. In an interview with Sky News, he said Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif expressed his gratitude to President Donald Trump, who played a pivotal role in the ceasefire.

A fter four days of deadly fighting between India and Pakistan that seemed near the edge of catastrophe, the two sides abruptly agreed to a U.S.-brokered ceasefire on Saturday. Th

India has rejected U.S. President Donald Trump's claim that he helped New Delhi and Islamabad reach a ceasefire in exchange for trade concessions.

India on Tuesday pushed back against US President Donald Trump’s offer to mediate on Kashmir and his claim that he used trade to prevent a “nuclear war” between India and Pakistan, with the external affairs ministry saying the military action under Operation Sindoor was “entirely in the conventional domain”.

The neighboring countries exchanged fire for several days after India's missile attack on Pakistan before reaching a ceasefire on Saturday.

A series of military strikes last week by India and Pakistan brought the nuclear-armed rivals closer to a broader war.

Pakistan categorically rejects the "provocative" assertions made by the Indian Prime Minister in his address yesterday, the Foreign Office said in a statement Tuesday.
