Wait until we learn that India and Pakistan will have to cede territory to Russia somehow.

India and Pakistan aren't known for having white people. Trump would have little interest in making them states.

I don't think Trumf has gone through the ambassador core yet. So it was probably the US ambassadors in that area.

I doubt it. This is the third time that India and Pakistan have started shooting at each other over this same area and not gone to a full-scale war. They've got form

I'm amazed anyone is left in the US government that can even be capable of doing mediation. I would assume they'd get advice like hey, if India and Pakistan both become the 51st and 52nd state then you won't have to fight anymore

Congratulation to both sides being mature enough to agree so rapidly to this ceasefire despite (or with the help of 😋 ?) "American mediation".
