India-Pakistan Border Tensions Heighten

The US has shifted its stance in the India-Pakistan conflict, siding with India due to strategic partnerships and concerns over Pakistan's handling of terrorism. This marks a departure from its previous neutral role. The US urges both nations to de-escalate tensions, especially given their nuclear capabilities. Pakistan, feeling isolated, may turn to China for support. Both countries seek a resolution but struggle to find a path forward.

What role does the US aim to maintain in the conflict between India and Pakistan?

What potential consequences could arise if Pakistan feels it lacks support from the US?
