Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif once again thanks Trump for resolving the Indo-Pakistan conflict

Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif once again thanked US President Donald Trump for settling the Indo-Pakistani conflict in May.

New Delhi has consistently maintained that India and Pakistan reached an agreement on May 10 to end the conflict after four days of intense cross-border drone and missile strikes, with no third party involved.

“President Trump’s bold and decisive leadership led to a ceasefire between Pakistan and India, restored peace in South Asia, prevented a major war and saved millions of lives,” Mr Sharif said, speaking at the Azerbaijan Victory Parade in Baku on Saturday (8 November 2025).

Since May 10, when Mr. Trump announced on social media that India and Pakistan had agreed to a “full and immediate ceasefire” after a “long night” of talks brokered by Washington, he has repeatedly repeated his claim that he had “helped defuse” tensions between the two countries.

India has consistently denied any interference by third parties.

Pakistan has repeatedly praised Mr Trump, saying he brokered a ceasefire during the May conflict.

India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, targeting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in response to the April 22 Pahalgam attack that killed 26 civilians.

In his speech, Mr. Sharif also mentioned Kashmir, saying Azerbaijan’s victory in Karabakh is a beacon of hope for all nations struggling against oppression.

The prime minister said that Pakistan is committed to peace, but it will not allow anyone to challenge its sovereignty or undermine its territorial integrity.

The contingents of the armed forces of Pakistan and Turkey also participated in the parade, marching together with the troops of Azerbaijan. The ceremony also included a spectacular flyby of JF-17 Thunder jets.
