Following the announcement of a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, global leaders and international organizations expressed cautious optimism that the agreement would pave the way for long-term peace and stability in the region. However, just hours after the truce was brokered, India accused Pakistan of violating the terms, raising concerns about the durability of the fragile accord.

Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri confirmed that Indian armed forces were responding to what he described as “repeated violations” by Pakistan. Speaking at a news conference in New Delhi, Misri urged Islamabad to take responsibility and address the situation with seriousness and accountability.

The ceasefire agreement, which followed intensive US-led diplomatic efforts, was widely welcomed by world leaders.

“After a long night of talks mediated by the United States, I am pleased to announce that India and Pakistan have agreed to a FULL AND IMMEDIATE CEASEFIRE,” Trump posted on Truth Social, congratulating both nations for “using Common Sense and Great Intelligence.”

UN Secretary-General António Guterres also welcomed the ceasefire, urging both nations to build on this momentum through sustained dialogue. “We welcome all efforts to de-escalate the conflict,” Guterres said, emphasizing the importance of long-term engagement to maintain peace.

UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy described the development as “hugely welcome” and called on both sides to show restraint. “I urge both parties to sustain this. De-escalation is in everybody라이브 바카라 interest,” he posted on social media.

In a statement, the Saudi Foreign Ministry expressed hope that the ceasefire would help restore peace and security in the region. “The Kingdom commends both parties for prioritizing wisdom and self-restraint and reaffirms its support for resolving disputes through dialogue and peaceful means,” the ministry said.

The United Nations reiterated its support for the ceasefire through Secretary-General spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric, who called the agreement a “positive step” toward easing tensions and creating a conducive environment for resolving broader, long-standing issues between India and Pakistan.

“We call upon Pakistan to take appropriate steps to address these violations and deal with the situation with seriousness and responsibility,” Misri stated.
