The United States is at the forefront of international attempts to ease growing hostilities between India and Pakistan, according to Pakistan's Defence Minister, Khawaja Muhammad Asif.
In a statement provided to Reuters on Thursday, Asif emphasized that ongoing drone incursions by India into Pakistani territory could make a retaliatory strike by Pakistan unavoidable.
This international diplomatic intervention by the U.S. comes at a delicate time, as both nations appear to be on the brink of armed conflict.
