ISLAMABAD: Pakistan and India’s Directors General of Military Operations (DGMOs) are set to hold talks today, as both countries have agreed to a ceasefire, announced Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar.
In a statement during a private news channel show, Dar confirmed that military-level discussions were ongoing and stressed that the next phase would involve dialogue. He called the global recognition of Pakistan's stance as a diplomatic victory, adding, "The world agreed to our narrative, which is our victory, while India struggles to formulate its own."
Dar highlighted Pakistan's robust diplomatic efforts, stating that he had contacted over 60 countries and Pakistan's diplomats had made more than 100 engagements. He also emphasized that Pakistan did not request any nation to enforce the ceasefire. "We made it clear to the US Secretary of State that we would respond if India escalates further," Dar explained.
The third round of communication between the DGMOs, Major General Kashif Abdullah of Pakistan and Lieutenant General Rajeev Ghai of India, reaffirmed their commitment to peace along the Line of Control (LoC). Both sides agreed on additional confidence-building measures aimed at reinforcing the existing ceasefire and maintaining stability along the border.
The diplomatic efforts, which were largely facilitated by the United States and other international players, are being seen as a crucial step toward ensuring regional stability. This ceasefire agreement is expected to contribute to reducing tensions and fostering dialogue between the two nuclear-armed neighbors.
