India Pakistan Ceasefire: Shashi Tharoor DEFENDS Peace, Hits Back At Posts Comparing 1971 To 2025

As the Congress invoked Indira Gandhi's 1971 Bangladesh war leadership to criticize the Modi government’s ceasefire deal with Pakistan, senior leader Shashi Tharoor urged a clear-eyed view of history.

Calling the 2025 scenario "entirely different," Tharoor said India needs peace, not endless escalation.

He emphasized the importance of preventing protracted conflict, arguing that while retaliation against terrorism is necessary, risking national stability without clear goals is not.

The comments mark a sharp political and strategic contrast to current government narratives amid rising border tensions.

Trump Takes Credit For India-Pakistan Peace | Offers 'Thousand-Year' Solution On Kashmir

Former U.S. President Donald Trump praised India and Pakistan for showing “wisdom and strength” in ending their recent aggression, calling the ceasefire a “historic and heroic decision.” Trump credited U.S. diplomatic efforts for facilitating the peace talks and pledged to increase trade with both nations. He also proposed working toward a “thousand-year” solution on Kashmir—remarks India swiftly rejected, citing the Simla Agreement and reaffirming Kashmir as a bilateral issue. The comments sparked debate over U.S. involvement in one of South Asia’s most sensitive geopolitical disputes. #DonaldTrump #IndiaPakistan #Ceasefire #KashmirIssue #TrumpSpeech #Diplomacy #SimlaAgreement #USIndiaRelations #USPakistanRelations #TrumpOnKashmir #PeaceTalks #BilateralIssue #Geopolitics #GlobalDiplomacy #InternationalAffairs #SouthAsia #TrumpStatement #CeasefirePraise #TradeTalks #ForeignPolicy #TrumpInNews #IndiaRejectsMediation #BilateralTalksOnly #TrumpQuotes #Trump2025 #PeaceEfforts #KashmirDebate #HistoricCeasefire #USMediation #TrumpVsDiplomacy Also Read Donald Trump 'Proud' Of India, Pakistan For Reaching Ceasefire: 'Will Work With You Both On Kashmir' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-trump-praises-india-and-pakistan-for-reaching-ceasefire-will-work-with-you-both-on-ka-4150129.html?ref=DMDesc India, Pakistan Confirm 'Full And Immediate' Ceasefire; US Says It Mediated Truce :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-announces-full-and-immediate-india-pakistan-ceasefire-claims-us-mediated-talks-4149637.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Reacts to Indian Missile Strikes: 'It’s a Shame,' Calls for Swift Resolution :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reacts-to-indian-missile-strikes-it-s-a-shame-calls-for-swift-resolution-4145511.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~

Trump Heads To Saudi Amid ‘$400Bn Deal’ Buzz | Will U.S. Recognize Palestine Without Hamas?

Saudi Arabia is set to host the Gulf-US Summit in mid-May during former President Trump’s second-term visit, with high-stakes announcements expected. Speculation is mounting that the U.S. may back recognition of a Palestinian state—without Hamas—in a move that could realign the Middle East. Economic deals, including tech and nuclear cooperation, are forecast to surpass $400 billion. With all Gulf leaders in attendance (except King Salman due to health), analysts predict this summit may reshape U.S.-Saudi ties and the regional power balance. #Trump #GulfSummit #USSaudiRelations #RiyadhSummit #MiddleEastPolitics #Palestine #SaudiArabia #TrumpVisit #GlobalDiplomacy #EconomicDeals #TechAgreements #Trump2025 #Riyadh #GulfLeaders #ArabWorld #MideastPeace #TrumpReturns #NuclearDeals #GulfNews #JerusalemPost #BreakingNews #Summit2025 #TrumpAbroad #ForeignPolicy #ArabSummit #PalestinianState #Geopolitics #TrumpSpeech #OilPolitics #GlobalImpact Also Read India-Saudi Arabia Relations: F15 Jets Escort PM Modi's Aircraft | Watch Video :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-saudi-arabia-relations-f15-jets-escort-pm-modi-aircraft-watch-video-4130835.html?ref=DMDesc PM Modi Hails India-Saudi Ties as Pillar of Stability in a Shifting World :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pm-modi-hails-india-saudi-ties-as-pillar-of-stability-in-a-shifting-world-4130609.html?ref=DMDesc Energy, Defence, And Investment Top Agenda For PM Modi’s Saudi Arabia Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/modi-saudi-visit-2025-strategic-ties-energy-trade-4129827.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.408~
