Web Desk(National Times)- US State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce has reaffirmed that President Donald Trump and senior members of his administration were actively involved in negotiations that helped secure a ceasefire between Pakistan and India in May. Apparently contradicting New Delhi’s remarks, Bruce said: “So many comments speak for themselves,” she said. “That’s one of the good-news aspects of our modern world — people can see what’s really occurring. You’re not reliant on a comment to know what has really happened. President Trump has repeatedly said to have brokered Pakistan-India ceasefire, while the Indian government has consistently denied any US involvement in the process. “Everyone will have an opinion. That is an opinion. Some opinions are wrong; mine rarely are. But other people’s opinions can be wrong,” Bruce said while speaking at a State Department media briefing in Washington. She further highlighted the rapid technological advances that allow news consumption on smartphones and other devices, enabling greater clarity and understanding of global affairs. “The exponential speed of technology change… reminds many of us how quickly things will change, how much information we can get, and the seriousness of making up our own minds when it comes to the things the world puts upon us,” she added. “Donald Trump is here to make that easier and help use this to make things clear. In May this year, Pakistan and India engaged in the military confrontation triggered by April’s Pahalgam attack in IIOJK. In response to the Indian aggression, Pakistan’s armed forces launched a large-scale retaliatory military action, named “Operation Bunyan-um-Marsoos”, and targeted several Indian military targets across multiple regions. Pakistan downed its six fighter jets, including three Rafales, and dozens of drones. After at least 87 hours, the war between the two nuclear-armed nations ended on May 10 with a ceasefire agreement brokered by the US. The ceasefire was first announced by US President Donald Trump on social media after Washington held talks with both sides, but India has differed with Trump’s claims that it resulted from his intervention and threats to sever trade talks. However, Pakistan has acknowledged Trump’s efforts and formally recommended him for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize, citing his role in defusing tensions between Pakistan and India last month.
