JD Vance Calls On India To Avoid War With Pakistan

U.S. Vice President JD Vance said on Thursday (May 1) that Washington hoped Pakistan would cooperate with India to hunt down Pakistan-based militants, and hopes that India's response to the recent Islamist militant attack in India-administered Kashmir does not lead to a broader regional conflict.

"Our hope here is that India responds to this terrorist attack in a way that doesn't lead to a broader regional conflict," Vance said in an interview on Fox News' "Special Report with Bret Baier" show.

"And we hope, frankly, that Pakistan, to the extent that they're responsible, cooperates with India to make sure that the terrorists sometimes operating in their territory are hunted down and dealt with," Vance added.
