Vice President Vance says India-Pakistan fighting is 'none of our business'

Vice President Vance stated that the escalating conflict between India and Pakistan is "fundamentally none of our business" during an interview on Fox News. He expressed the U.S. desire to encourage de-escalation while acknowledging that the situation is beyond American control. The comments come amidst increasing tensions, with prior involvement from the U.S. in mediating conflicts appearing to wane. Analysts warn that without U.S. intervention, both nations may further destabilize their already precarious nuclear dynamics, highlighting a concerning lack of a neutral arbitrator in the situation.

Vance said the U.S. administration is pursuing de-escalation through diplomacy, emphasizing that it would not engage in conflicts that don't concern America.

The commentary brings attention to the historical role of the U.S. in mediating tensions between India and Pakistan, which seems to be diminishing now.
