WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump spoke with the prime ministers of India and Pakistan on Monday, urging them to reduce tensions over the Indian Held Kashmir (IHK).
"Spoke to my two good friends, Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi of India, and Prime Minister (Imran) Khan of Pakistan, regarding Trade, Strategic Partnerships and, most importantly, for India and Pakistan to work towards reducing tensions in Kashmir," Trump tweeted.
