PM Modi Rejects Trump’s ‘Broker’ Claim After G7 Call | “No Mediation by US' - India on Pak Ceasefire

In a bold and unequivocal message, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has dismissed US President Donald Trump’s claim of brokering a ceasefire between India and Pakistan. After a high-stakes phone call post-G7 Summit, India clarified that all communications with Pakistan were strictly bilateral — handled via military channels with no third-party involvement. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri emphasized India’s long-standing position against external mediation and underlined full political unanimity on the issue. Modi also told Trump that India now views terrorism as "actual war, not proxy war", following the deadly Pahalgam attack that claimed 26 lives. #ModiTrump #IndiaPakistan #OperationSindoor #NoMediation #PahalgamAttack #Geopolitics #IndiaFirst #TrumpNews #ModiSpeech #BreakingNews #ForeignPolicy #SouthAsiaTensions #G7Summit #CeasefireClarified Also Read Donald Trump Asks People To 'Immediately Evacuate Tehran' Amid Israel-Iran Tensions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-asks-people-to-immediately-evacuate-tehran-amid-israel-iran-tensions-4184437.html?ref=DMDesc French President Macron Whispers Something In Italian PM Meloni's Ear, Her Eye Rolling Reaction Goes Viral :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/french-president-macron-whispers-something-in-italian-pm-meloni-ear-her-eye-rolling-reaction-goes-4184371.html?ref=DMDesc ‘Much Bigger Than Ceasefire’: Trump Blasts Macron, Exits G7 Over Israel-Iran Crisis :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-g7-exit-amid-rising-tensions-between-israel-and-iran-4183695.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~PR.274~ED.346~

India-Pakistan Ceasefire Shattered? Vikram Misri Accuses Pak of Intrusion After Deal-MEA Briefing [Video]

India-Pakistan Ceasefire Shattered? Vikram Misri Accuses Pak of Intrusion After Deal-MEA Briefing

Just hours after India and Pakistan agreed to a ceasefire, Delhi has accused Islamabad of violating the deal. In a hard-hitting press briefing, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri revealed that Pakistani forces intruded across the border shortly after the Director Generals of Military Operations (DGMOs) reached an understanding. India has responded with strong retaliation, and Misri did not mince words—calling the intrusion “extremely condemnable” and placing full responsibility on Pakistan. Is the ceasefire already collapsing? Has Pakistan’s military undermined its own civilian leadership? #IndiaPakistan #CeasefireViolation #VikramMisri #MEAStatement #PakistanIntrusion #IndiaRetaliates #BreakingNews #SouthAsiaCrisis #DGMOs #BorderTensions #IndianArmy #PakistanBetrays #PeaceDealCollapsed #Geopolitics #LiveUpdates ~HT.410~PR.274~ED.194~

‘Pak attacked Gurudwara’ | ‘Attempt to cause communal discord’ | ‘India’s unity a challenge to Pak’

The Indian government has called out Pakistan’s blatant lie that it was not targetting any religious places. India’s Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri informed the media that Pakistan had targetted a gurudwara in Poonch which resulted in the death of civilians. Misri also termed Pakistan’s claims that India targetted Nankana Sahib in Pakistan, and was targetting its own cities as ‘Preposterous and Outrages’. He said that Pakistan’s attempts to fuel communal discord will fail as India’s unity is in itself a challenge to Pakisan. #OperationSindoor #IndiaPakistanWar #IndiaVsPakistan #IndiaPakistanTensions #PakistanVsIndia #IndiaStrikesPakistan #IndiaAttackPakistan #IndiaPakistanConflict #IndiaPakistanNews #OperationSindoorLive #IndiaPakistanRelations #OperationSindoorVideo #IndiaPakistanTension #OperationSindoorLatest #IndiaPakistanLatestNews Also Read Jaisalmer Enforces Full Blackout and Curfew Amid Rising Indo-Pak Border Tensions :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/jaisalmer-enforces-full-blackout-and-curfew-amid-rising-indo-pak-border-tensions-4148589.html?ref=DMDesc India Accuses Pakistan Of Using Turkish Drones, Civilian Flights As Cover In Attacks Amid Rising Tensions :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-accuses-pakistan-of-using-turkish-drones-in-attacks-amid-rising-cross-border-tensions-4148531.html?ref=DMDesc MHA Urges Emergency Civil Defence Measures After Pakistan's Coordinated Attacks :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/mha-urges-emergency-civil-defence-measures-after-pakistans-coordinated-attacks-4148453.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.336~
