President Donald Trump has proposed to mediate between India and Pakistan regarding the Kashmir conflict, following a recently brokered ceasefire. Despite Trump's historically inaccurate claim of a thousand-year conflict, the dispute began in 1947 during the partition of British India. India has rejected international intervention, while Pakistan has indicated willingness to engage in dialogue, asserting that any resolution must align with UN resolutions and respect the rights of the Kashmiri people. The ongoing tension in the region continues to impact regional stability and security.
I will work with you, both to see if, after a thousand years, a solution can be arrived at concerning Kashmir, Trump posted on his Truth Social platform on Sunday.
The government of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has so far remained committed to a decades-old policy of refusing international mediation to find a solution to the Kashmir issue.
Pakistan reaffirms that any just and lasting settlement of the Jammu and Kashmir dispute must be in accordance with the relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions.
The Muslim-majority territory has been contested since the partition of British India in 1947 into India and Pakistan, leading to three wars.
