US President Donald Trump emphasized on Monday that trade negotiations played a pivotal role in the cessation of hostilities between India and Pakistan. Addressing reporters at the White House, the president revealed that the US is currently in trade discussions with India and plans to initiate negotiations with Pakistan.

Trump's announcement follows a recent agreement between India and Pakistan, which led to the halting of all military actions across their land, air, and sea borders as of last Saturday.
