Now, Pakistan backs China’s claim that it mediated during Op Sindoor

Pakistan has now endorsed China’s claim of mediating the May 2025 India-Pakistan conflict, a move that raises eyebrows given India’s stance. Islamabad’s foreign office spokesperson stated Chinese leaders were in contact with both nations, contributing to de-escalation. This assertion contrasts with India’s position that the conflict pause followed a request from Pakistan’s DGMO, not third-party intervention.
