In his noon phone call with Modi, Vance made it clear that the U.S. believed that there was a high probability of dramatic escalation as the conflict went into the weekend.
The vice president encouraged Modi to consider de-escalation options, including a potential off-ramp that U.S. officials knew the Pakistanis would be amenable to.
Modi listened to the vice president’s message, although he didn’t explicitly indicate openness to any of the options put forth.
Vance’s call to Modi came less than a month after he met with the Indian leader <www.foxnews.com/politics/jd-vance-champions-roadmap-toward-us-india-trade-deal-says-partnership-critical-deterring-dark-time> in New Delhi to discuss trade talks.
From that point, key U.S. officials continued to work the phones with their counterparts in India and Pakistan into the night to help re-establish communications between the two sides, allowing them to work out terms for a ceasefire in the next 12 to 18 hours.
“After a long night of talks mediated by the United States, I am pleased to announce that India and Pakistan have agreed to a FULL AND IMMEDIATE CEASEFIRE,” President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social just before 8 a.m. on Saturday. Congratulations to both Countries on using Common Sense and Great Intelligence. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
House Republican Conference Chair Rep. Lisa McClain, R-Mich., reacted to the president’s announcement by referring to him <x.com/RepLisaMcClain/status/1921183947406364964> in a post on X as “The Peace President.”
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio <www.foxnews.com/category/person/marco-rubio> noted in a statement that he and Vance had engaged with officials from the two foreign countries.

“I am pleased to announce the Governments of India and Pakistan have agreed to an immediate ceasefire and to start talks on a broad set of issues at a neutral site,” he continued. “We commend Prime Ministers Modi and Sharif on their wisdom, prudence, and statesmanship in choosing the path of peace.”
Vance wrote in a post <x.com/JDVance/status/1921188620452393411>on X, “Great work from the President’s team, especially Secretary Rubio. And my gratitude to the leaders of India and Pakistan for their hard work and willingness to engage in this ceasefire.”
