How the U.S Forced Pakistan Into a Ceasefire With India | IMF, Military and the CIA’s Crucial Role

Behind the scenes of the India-Pakistan ceasefire lies calculated pressure from the United States. Relying heavily on U.S.-controlled IMF loans and military aid, Pakistan was reportedly nudged by Washington to de-escalate. The U.S. is believed to have used its sway over Pakistan’s military, intelligence ties, and influence in international forums—possibly with help from Saudi Arabia—to defuse tensions. The strategic move helped avoid a full-scale conflict, as India also agreed to the ceasefire to ensure economic stability and regional peace. #IndiaPakistan #Ceasefire #USDiplomacy #IMF #Geopolitics #SouthAsia #USPressure #MilitaryAid #CIA #PakistanArmy #Modi #Bajwa #GlobalPolitics #WashingtonMoves #DiplomaticLeverage #RegionalStability #ConflictResolution #IndiaPakistanTensions #PeacePush #USInfluence #SaudiMediation #SouthAsiaNews #USForeignPolicy #IndiaNews #PakistanNews #StrategicAffairs #CeasefireDeal #GlobalInfluence #EconomicLeverage #MilitaryTies #USIMF ~HT.318~GR.124~ED.346~

India-Pakistan Ceasefire: What Forced Pak to Seek Ceasefire with India? Operation Sindoor Impact [Video]

India-Pakistan Ceasefire: What Forced Pak to Seek Ceasefire with India? Operation Sindoor Impact

India’s powerful and precise military response under Operation Sindoor forced Pakistan to seek a ceasefire, following the brutal terror attack in Pahalgam. The Indian Army’s targeted strikes on nine terror hubs across Pakistan and PoK sent a clear message: terror will be met with force. Despite international outreach, including behind-the-scenes pressure from the U.S. reportedly linked to Pakistan’s IMF bailout, India held its ground—refusing any political dialogue or compromise. The ceasefire was brokered solely through military channels, with Pakistan’s DGMO reaching out first. Indian officials have reiterated: any future provocation will cross a red line. #IndiaPakistanCeasefire #IndiaPakistanTensions #IndiaPakistanNews #IndiaVsPakistan #IndiaPakistanConflict #IndiaPakistanWar #IndiaAttacksPakistan #PakistanVsIndia #IndiaPakistan2025 #IndiaPakistanRelations #IndiaPakistanTalks #IndiaPakistanCrisis #IndiaPakistanLive #IndiaPakistanUpdate #IndiaPakistanBorders Also Read Omar Abdullah Questions Ceasefire Amid Fresh Explosions In Srinagar: 'What On Earth Just Happened?' :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/omar-abdullah-questions-ceasefire-amid-fresh-explosions-in-srinagar-what-on-earth-just-happened-4149995.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Pleads for Ceasefire After India's Relentless Response to Terror :: https://www.oneindia.com/temp/pakistan-pleads-for-ceasefire-after-indias-relentless-response-to-terror-4149969.html?ref=DMDesc Ceasefire Crumbles Within Hours As Pakistan Violates Truce Along LoC :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/ceasefire-crumbles-within-hours-as-pakistan-violates-truce-along-loc-4149927.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.152~ED.194~
