Pakistan has strongly praised US President Donald Trump’s role in facilitating ceasefire between Islamabad and New Delhi, and welcomed his offer to help resolve decades -old Kashmir conflict after several days of severe cross -border hostages.

The Foreign Office said in a statement, “We recognize the definition of a constructive role played by the United States, along with other friendly states, to support the recent ceasefire between Pakistan and India.

In 1947, the two countries born of British colonial rule have gone into war three times – twice in the Kashmir region.

New Delhi accused Islamabad of insurgency in IIOJK, which began in 1989 and has killed tens of thousands of people. It claims that Pakistan -based groups face attacks elsewhere in India. The claim has been permanently rejected by the government in Islamabad.

Pakistan says it only provides moral, political and diplomatic support to the Kashmiri people.

The latest increase in decades of old enmity began on May 7 when at least 31 civilians, including children, were killed in an illegal attack cross -border. In retaliation, Pakistan dropped five IAF fighter jets, including three Rafael, and dozens of drones.

On Friday night, India launched several missile attacks on Pakistani airbase, including Noor Khan, Mard, and Sherkot Air Base, which were fired by planes, according to Director General Inter Services Public Relations (DGISPR), Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif.

In response, Pakistan launched a “Operation Bonyan Um-Marsos” against India early Saturday, targeting several military bases, including missile storage sites in India.

After the US diplomacy and pressure, a ceasefire agreement was reached, which was announced by President Trump.

Earlier, the US president praised a social media platform, and the leaders of both countries for agreed to stop aggression.

In this post, Trump said, “Unless it was talked, I am going to increase trade with these two great countries to a great extent. Also, I will work with you both to see that a solution can be reached about Kashmir.”

In response to this offer, Pakistan said it had confirmed that any correct and lasting settlement of the Jammu and Kashmir dispute should be in accordance with the relevant UN Security Council resolutions and it would have to ensure the acquisition of basic rights of the Kashmiri people.

“Pakistan is committed to engaging with the United States and the international community in efforts to promote peace, security and prosperity in the region,” the statement said.

It concluded, “We look forward to deepening our multilateral partnership with the United States, especially in the fields of trade, investment and economic cooperation.”

Prime Minister welcomes Trump’s offer

In addition, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif thanked President Trump’s “invaluable offer” to play more and more role in bringing sustainable peace to South Asia.

In a post on X, he said that Pakistan and the United States have been partners for decades, working closely to protect and promote their mutual interests, as well as to maintain peace and security in key parts of the world.

Expressing confidence in Trump, Prime Minister Shahbaz remarked that Pakistan has received a huge partner who can resurrect the strategic partnership and further strengthen Pakistan -US relations not only in trade and investment but in all areas of cooperation.
