Trump wants India-Pakistan de-escalation, says White House after JD Vance's 'none of our business' remark

In a new statement on the India-Pakistan tension, the White House said President Donald Trump wants a quick de-escalation of the situation. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who is also the acting national security adviser, has been in communication with the leaders of both countries, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said. The statement came after Vice President JD Vance, in an interview with the Fox, said the India-Pakistan tension is none of US' business.

"This is something that the Secretary of State and now our NSA as well, Marco Rubio, has been involved in. The President has expressed that he wants this to de-escalate as quickly as possible. He understands these two countries have been at odds with one another for decades, long before President Trump was here at the Oval Office. However, he has good relations with the leaders of both countries. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has been in constant communication with the leaders of both countries, trying to bring this conflict to an end," Leavitt said.
