WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Rep. Warren Davidson (R-OH) introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives commending President Donald J. Trump for his successful diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the recent armed conflict between Pakistan and India.

“President Trump once again demonstrated his skill as a master negotiator and peacemaker by helping to mediate a ceasefire between Pakistan and India,” said Rep. Davidson. “His strategic use of trade leverage played a crucial role in reducing tensions in one of the world’s most volatile regions. At a time when the world faced the threat of a dangerous conflict, President Trump acted decisively to help secure peace. Stability in South Asia is vital to global security and the national interests of the United States, and the President’s leadership benefited both the region and the world.”

Background:

  • On April 22, 2025, a terrorist attack in Pahalgam, India, reignited the long-standing conflict between Pakistan and India.
  • As tensions escalated, the two countries exchanged artillery, drone, and missile strikes, pushing the region close to broader war.
  • President Trump intervened to mediate a peace deal, leveraging potential restrictions on U.S. trade access and offering economic incentives.
  • Following the ceasefire agreement, Pakistan nominated President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of his diplomatic efforts.
