U.S. President Donald Trump has expressed concerns over the state of affairs between India and Pakistan in the aftermath of major militant attack in Jammu and Kashmir last week.
"Right now between Pakistan and India, there is a very, very bad situation. A very dangerous situation,” Trump told reporters, according to Dawn, a Pakistani daily.
Tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbors have risen after India blamed Pakistan for the Feb. 14 attack in which an explosive-laden vehicle rammed into a paramilitary bus in Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir, killing at least 40 Indian troops.
Islamabad denied the accusation, offering to open investigation if "actionable evidence" is provided by New Delhi.
“A lot of people were just killed, We want to see it just stop,” Trump said of the Pulwama attack.
The U.S. president said his administration was talking to “authorities in both countries.”
