India and Pakistan confirmed the ceasefire deal following U.S. mediation.

Ceasefire Resolution reached between Pakistan and India

President Donald Trump hailed the reaching of a ceasefire between India and Pakistan on Saturday following U.S.-led talks to end the most serious military confrontation between the nuclear-armed rivals in decades.

"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 wrote Saturday morning on Truth Social.

"Congratulations to both Countries on using Common Sense and Great Intelligence. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

Secretary of State Marco Rubio praised the quick resolution for a ceasefire and vows to meet for long-term peace talks.

"Over the past 48 hours, Vice President Vance and I have engaged with senior Indian and Pakistani officials, including Prime Ministers Narendra Modi and Shehbaz Sharif, External Affairs Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, Chief of Army Staff Asim Munir, and National Security Advisors Ajit Doval and Asim Malik," Rubio wrote to Newsmax in a statement.
