Trump strongly condemned the terrorist attack and expressed full support to India to justice the criminals of this heinous attack. India and the United States are standing together in the fight against terror, “said Mr. Jaiswal.
Militants set fire to a popular tourist place near Pahalgam city on Tuesday afternoon, killing 26 people since the Pulwama strike in 2019, most of the other states from other states.
PM Modi, who was on a two -day state visit to Saudi Arabia, reduced his journey and decided to return to New Delhi on Tuesday night, as the terror attack sent shockwaves to the country and attracted widespread condemnation and resentment. He was originally scheduled to return to India on Wednesday night.
Earlier, White House Press Secretary Karolin Lewitt said on Tuesday that Trump was informed by the National Security Advisor about the terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir, and he is being kept for speed because more facts are learned. He said, “We already know that dozens were killed and more were injured in a cruel terrorist attack in a popular tourist place in South Kashmir.”
Lewitt had said that Trump would talk with Prime Minister Modi “as soon as he can probably express his heartfelt condolences to the lost people.” He said, “Our prayers are with those injured people, and our allies, support our country for India. There are such frightening events by terrorists that people who work for peace and stability in the world continue our mission,” he said.
Earlier in a post on Truth Social, Trump mourned terrorist attacks in Kashmir, saying that America is strong with India against terrorism.
“The news that harasses the depth outside Kashmir is strong with India against terrorism. We pray for the souls of those people, and to recover the injured. Trump said in a post on the truth social. American Vice President JD Vance, who is in India with his wife second lady Usha Vance and his children, also expressed the disastrous terrorist attack victims in Pahgam.” They have been away from the beauty of this country and its people. Our thoughts and prayers are with them because they mourn this horrific attack. “National Security Advisor Mike Waltz called the terrorist attacks” a terrible tragedy “.” Please join me praying for the victims and their families, “he said.
The Bureau of South and Central Asian Affairs of the State Department said in a post on X that “the United States strongly condemns the terrorist attack in Kashmir. Nothing can correct such heinous work to kill tourists and citizens. State Secretary Marco Rubio quoted the post of State Department on X, “The United States stands with India.”
