U.S. Senator JD Vance has issued a strong statement directed at Pakistan after the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. The attack, which happened earlier this week, resulted in the deaths of several Indian soldiers. In his statement, JD Vance said that Pakistan must “cooperate” with India and take responsibility if found involved in any way. “To the extent that Pakistan is responsible, they should be held accountable,” said the Republican senator from Ohio.
The terror attack in Pahalgam took place when terrorists ambushed an Indian Army vehicle. The sudden strike killed many soldiers and shocked the nation. Investigations are ongoing, and early reports suggest the possible involvement of Pakistan-based terror groups. Indian security forces are now working to trace the attackers and understand who planned this violent act.
Following the attack, Indian officials demanded strong global action. The Ministry of External Affairs urged the international community to hold Pakistan accountable for supporting terrorism. India has consistently maintained that Pakistan allows terror groups to operate from its soil and has asked for global pressure to stop this support.
JD Vance’s statement is seen as an important show of support from the United States. His words suggest that the U.S. is closely watching the situation in South Asia. Experts believe that such international backing can help India in pushing for stronger global action against cross-border terrorism.
Terrorism in Kashmir has been a serious issue for decades. Several attacks have been linked to terror groups that operate from Pakistan. Although Pakistan often denies involvement, India has provided evidence of training camps and support for militants. The Pahalgam terror attack is another reminder that the Kashmir region remains a hotspot for violence and international concern.
JD Vance’s firm message to Pakistan highlights the growing international focus on terrorism in Kashmir. His call for cooperation and accountability sends a clear signal. The world now waits to see how Pakistan will respond and whether it will take real action to stop such deadly attacks in the future.
