India’s Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri clarified to the Parliamentary Standing Committee on External Affairs that there was no nuclear threat from Pakistan nor any American mediation in the India-Pakistan ceasefire following Operation Sindoor. The ceasefire, he said, resulted from a direct request by Pakistan’s DGMO to his Indian counterpart. Misri dismissed US President Donald Trump’s claim of brokering peace and preventing nuclear war, stating, “He certainly isn’t seeking my approval.” India launched precision strikes on terror bases in Pakistan on May 7 after the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack. Pakistan’s counter-attacks led to hostilities until the May 10 ceasefire. (PC: News18)
