G7 Nations: Following rising military tensions between India and Pakistan, the Group of Seven nations called on the two countries to ease the tensions at once and exercise maximum restraint. The call was made following concern for stability in the region as well as civilians’ lives as the two nuclear nations’ confrontations heighten.
Canadian, French, German, Italian, Japanese, UK, and US G7 foreign ministers and the European Union High Representative denounced in a joint statement the April 22 terror attack at Pahalgam. They underlined that additional military action would be a catastrophic threat to South Asian peace and urged India and Pakistan to put aside differences through diplomatic discourse.
The G7 leaders were concerned primarily with the security of civilians. Calling on restraint from both sides and for peaceful transfers. They indicated strongly that unbridled military interactions would destabilize the whole area and forestall efforts at a long-term peace.
Realizing the gravity of the situation, the G7 statement renewed their support for keeping the situation under monitor and assisting in a swift diplomatic solution. The organization has appealed to India and Pakistan to enter into direct talks and peaceful dialogue rather than through force.
