The European Union (EU) Friday called on New Delhi and Islamabad to show “restraint” and pursue dialogue to defuse tensions amid speculation about India’s possible retaliation against Pakistan following the Pahalgam terror attack.
Following separate phone conversations with External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and Pakistan’s Deputy PM Ishaq Dar, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs Kaja Kallas said the rising tensions between the two neighbouring countries are “alarming” and the escalation of the situation helps “no one”. “I urge both sides to show restraint and pursue dialogue to ease the situation. Escalation helps no one,” she said on X. “I spoke to both @DrSJaishankar and @MishaqDar50 today to convey these messages,” she added.
On his part, Jaishankar welcomed the EU’s “strong condemnation” of terrorism in all forms and manifestations. The EU’s call for restraint came two days after US Secretary of State Marco Rubio urged the two countries to work together to de-escalate tensions over the terror attack.
