India vs Pakistan War Stopped: DGMOs of Both Nations Agree to Ceasefire After US Mediation

The India-Pakistan War has officially stopped after the Directors General of Military Operations (DGMOs) of India and Pakistan agreed to an immediate ceasefire across land, air, and sea.

This critical breakthrough came after the DGMO of India and the DGMO of Pakistan engaged in direct talks at 15:35 hours, followed by an announcement by US President Donald Trump, who revealed that the ceasefire was mediated by the United States.

“After a long night of talks mediated by the United States, I am pleased to announce that India and Pakistan have agreed to a FULL AND IMMEDIATE CEASEFIRE,” Trump stated in a social media post.


How the Ceasefire Was Achieved

  • DGMO Talks: The DGMO of India and the DGMO of Pakistan communicated directly, agreeing to halt all military actions on land, air, and sea from 17:00 hours IST.
  • US Mediation: Former US President Donald Trump and his diplomatic team played a crucial role in convincing both sides to de-escalate.
  • Pakistan Foreign Minister’s Role: Pakistan’s Foreign Minister publicly supported the ceasefire, confirming that Islamabad was committed to maintaining peace.

The Role of the United States and Donald Trump

The ceasefire was not a spontaneous decision but the result of intense US diplomatic intervention.

  • Trump’s Announcement: In a social media post, Trump declared that the United States had mediated the ceasefire talks, ensuring that both India and Pakistan agreed to stop hostilities.
  • Backchannel Diplomacy: US diplomats engaged with both New Delhi and Islamabad, urging restraint and offering to mediate.
  • Global Stability: The US intervention was driven by a desire to prevent a regional conflict between two nuclear-armed nations.

Why the Ceasefire Matters

This ceasefire is more than just a pause in the conflict — it is a crucial step towards maintaining peace in South Asia.

  • Preventing War: The ceasefire stops active military operations, preventing further casualties and damage.
  • Nuclear Tensions: As both India and Pakistan possess nuclear weapons, the ceasefire reduces the risk of a catastrophic escalation.
  • Diplomatic Victory: The successful US mediation showcases the importance of diplomatic intervention in resolving international conflicts.

What Lies Ahead

  • DGMO Talks Continue: The DGMOs of India and Pakistan will speak again on May 12 to review the ceasefire status and ensure compliance.
  • Monitoring Mechanisms: Both nations will monitor the ceasefire to prevent violations.
  • US Diplomatic Role: The United States is expected to maintain engagement with both countries to ensure peace holds.

As the world watches, the success of this ceasefire will depend on the commitment of both India and Pakistan to maintain peace and resolve their disputes through dialogue.
