India and Pakistan have reached a ceasefire deal following US mediation after they fired volleys of missiles across their borders on Saturday. It was the most serious increase in hostilities so far in a conflict triggered by a gun massacre last month,

Hours after the cease-fire was confirmed, there were accusations that the agreement was not being entirely upheld.

While Pakistani officials lavished praise on the US, the Indian side was not keen to highlight Secretary of State Marco Rubio's and Trump's mediation efforts. This, analysts think, reflects India's resistance to international mediation. Pakistan, on the other hand, thrives on foreign support as an ailing and struggling economy.
