The unplanned call that sealed PM's deal with Trump - and the bigger challenge he now faces
Thursday, 8 May 2025 () VE Day with a packed diary was perhaps not the moment the prime minister would have chosen to announce he'd sealed a trade deal with Donald Trump.
As tensions erupt in Kashmir, the U.S. State Department has backed India’s claims, calling out Pakistan’s long-standing support for terrorism. A top U.S. official condemned the violence, stating, “What happened in Kashmir was awful.” President Trump also reacted to the Indian airstrikes, urging for a swift resolution while criticizing Pakistan’s drone and missile attacks. With Indian cities under threat and global eyes on the region, Washington is signaling a shift—strongly aligning with India as the crisis deepens.

The prime minister has held a phone call with the US president after agreeing a "historic" trade deal. Speaking from the White House, Donald Trump says there could not be a "more perfect morning to reach this historic agreement", given that the deal has been announced on the same day that Europe celebrated victory in World War II. Sir Keir Starmer replied by paying tribute to the historic, close partnership between the UK and US, adding that "the timing couldn't be more apt". Report by Brooksl.

India has launched Operation Sindoor, targeting terror launchpads in Pakistan and PoK after the Pahalgam massacre. Nine key Jaish-e-Mohammed-linked sites were hit in a precise military strike. Pakistan's PM Shehbaz Sharif called the strikes an “act of war” and vowed a “befitting reply,” while the defense minister accused India of killing civilians. U.S. President Trump expressed concern, urging calm. With tensions rising, India maintains the strikes were a measured response to terror. Both nuclear-armed nations now face growing global scrutiny over escalating hostilities.
