India Publicly Humiliates Trump And Rubio, Appears To Deny Their Ceasefire Claims In Front Of The World

The ceasefire was negotiated with the help of U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance. The two worked with the leaders of India and Pakistan to calm things down after deadly missile attacks and drone strikes killed dozens in Kashmir.

Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said the ceasefire would begin immediately. In India, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said the military leaders of both countries spoke and agreed to stop all military actions—on land, in the air, and at sea.

Soon after the announcements, India’s government clarified its position on how the ceasefire was arranged. Officials emphasized that the agreement was a direct understanding between India and Pakistan, not something brokered by the United States.

On X (formerly Twitter), the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting of India posted:
“Stoppage of firing & military action between India and Pakistan was worked out directly between the two countries.”

Despite the agreement, the situation remained extremely fragile, with shelling resuming just hours later as big explosions rocked Srinagar, and both sides immediately blamed each other.

Still, many people in the region were hopeful. People celebrated in Uri, a town near the border in Indian-controlled Kashmir. Tanveer Chalko, who lives there, said, “When news of the ceasefire broke, displaced families in camps began dancing with joy… Now everyone is preparing to return home.”

But others were more cautious. Lal Din from Poonch, another border town, lost his home and two relatives in the fighting. He said, “We’ve been here before… Until India and Pakistan seriously settle their disputes, we must brace for even greater conflicts.”

India and Pakistan have fought four wars before. This past week, things got dire. India said Pakistani-backed militants killed 25 Hindu tourists and a guide in Kashmir. In response, India bombed targets in Pakistan, killing 31 people. Pakistan hit back. Both sides used missiles, drones, and fighter jets.

India’s army spokesperson, Col. Sofiya Qureshi, said Pakistan attacked 26 sites in India, including airports and military bases. “Indian armed forces successfully neutralized these threats,” she said but admitted there was some damage.

Pakistan told a different story. Gen. Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said India started the fight. He said Pakistan’s air defense systems stopped most of India’s missiles. Then Pakistan launched its counter-attack, “Operation Bunyan Ul Marsoos,” which means “Wall of Lead.”

Both sides say they are ready to stop if the other stops. But so far, the shooting hasn’t stopped.

Just two days ago, JD Vance said the U.S. would stay out of this fight. But now, the Trump team rushed in to claim credit for stopping the war. Rubio called it a big win for peace and praised Modi and Sharif for choosing talks over bombs.

But here’s the truth: India’s government later made it clear — the ceasefire was arranged directly with Pakistan, not through the U.S. This flat-out contradicts Trump and Rubio’s claims. Once again, they lie about everything, even in a global crisis. And the shelling started again within hours. If this is Trump’s idea of “peace,” the world has every reason to worry.
