Pakistan's foreign minister says his country would consider de-escalation if India stops attacks

Islamabad | Pakistan's foreign minister said on Saturday his country would consider de-escalation if India stopped further attacks.

However, Ishaq Dar warned that if India launched any strikes, “our response will follow.” Dar told Pakistan's Geo News that he also conveyed this message to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio when he contacted him after speaking to New Delhi two hours ago.

“We responded because our patience had reached its limit. If they stop here, we will also consider stopping,” Dar said.
