Pakistan called on the Trump administration to do more to help ease tensions after India revoked autonomy in the disputed Muslim-majority state of Kashmir, a decision that has inflamed tensions between the two Asian powers.
“The US could do and the US must do more to help defuse this situation and to perhaps inject some more sanity on the Indian side," Asad Khan, Pakistan’s ambassador to the US, said in an interview on Friday in Washington with Bloomberg News editors and reporters. “We would expect that from all our friends. It really is a question of principle."
