Overview

• In an NBC Meet the Press interview, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the U.S. watches the India–Pakistan situation "every single day" and cautioned that ceasefires can unravel quickly.
• Rubio added that Washington seeks a durable peace agreement rather than a temporary pause in fighting.
• At the White House alongside Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President Trump again asserted he stopped the India–Pakistan war and has made similar claims roughly 40 times since May 10.
• New Delhi has rejected any third‑party role, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar saying the halt to operations followed DGMO‑to‑DGMO contact and was not linked to trade.
• Pakistan has publicly credited the U.S., and reporting says Army Chief Asim Munir even nominated Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize after the May 10 ceasefire that followed India’s Operation Sindoor.
