“It’s a shame.” While climbing between India and Pakistan, which exchange intense attacks on their disputed border in cashmere, accelerates, the international community denounces the increase in tensions and demands appeasement between the two nuclear countries.
During the night, when the strikes continued, the head of the American diplomacy Marco Rubio spoke with his Indian and Pakistani counterparts, calling them to dialogue to “deactivate the situation and avoid a new escalation,” according to the White House cited by the Reuters news agency.
When asked shortly before, Donald Trump said he expected the clashes “to end very quickly.” “It’s a shame,” said the president of the United States against journalists at the White House. “I guess people knew something was going to happen, according to the past. They have been fighting for a long time,” he added.
“Responsible solution”
At the end of April, after the murderous attack in the Indian Kashmir that gave fire to the dust between India and Pakistan, Washington had already urged the two neighboring countries to find a “responsible solution.” “We are contacting both parties and we say, of course, not worsen the situation,” said a state department spokesman, Reuters news agency reported.
“The world cannot afford a military confrontation,” said the UN. China asked both countries “to avoid taking measures that more complicate the situation.”
The Chief of French diplomacy called India and Pakistan “with restriction” this Wednesday. “We understand the aspiration of India to protect against the scourge of terrorism, but obviously we call India as Pakistan, in restriction to avoid climbing and obviously to the preservation of civilians,” said Jean-Noël Barrot, on the TF1 channel.
Two weeks after the attack that killed 26 people in Pahalgam, in the Indian part of Kashmir, India, who ensures that Islamabad is behind this attack despite his denials, puts his threats. During the night from Tuesday to Wednesday, he released missiles in nine places that took refuge “terrorist infrastructure” in Pakistan.
Islamabad has denied any participation in the attack, the deadliest to have attacked civilians in puppy for more than 20 years. One of the sites led at night by the Indian army is the Subhan Mosque, in Bahawalpur, in the Pachistani pendjab, linked according to Indian intelligence with groups close to the jihadist movement of Lashkar-E-Taiba (Let). India accuses this group, suspected of attacks that had killed 166 people in Bombay in 2008, having led Pahalgam’s attack.
