United States reaffirmed its unwavering support for India’s fight against terrorism during a crucial visit by a multi-party Indian parliamentary delegation, led by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor. In Washington, U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau emphasized the India-U.S. strategic partnership, especially in the aftermath of India’s Operation Sindoor. State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce acknowledged bilateral talks with both Indian and Pakistani delegations, reiterating support for peace and counterterrorism.

As the Congress invoked Indira Gandhi's 1971 Bangladesh war leadership to criticize the Modi government’s ceasefire deal with Pakistan, senior leader Shashi Tharoor urged a clear-eyed view of history. Calling the 2025 scenario "entirely different," Tharoor said India needs peace, not endless escalation. He emphasized the importance of preventing protracted conflict, arguing that while retaliation against terrorism is necessary, risking national stability without clear goals is not. The comments mark a sharp political and strategic contrast to current government narratives amid rising border tensions.
