NEW DELHI: Director Generals of Military Operations (DGMO) of India and Pakistan held talks on Monday where they decided to continue the ceasefire and avoid initiating any "aggressive and inimical action against each other".
"Talks between DGMOs (of India and Pakistan) were held at 5pm, May 12, 2025. Issues related to continuing the commitment that both sides must not fire a single shot or initiate any aggressive and inimical action against each other were discussed," ANI reported citing Indian Army.
"It was also agreed that both sides consider immediate measures to ensure troop reduction from the borders and forward areas," it added.
The DGMO-level talks between the two nations, initially set for noon, were rescheduled for the evening, following a mutual understanding reached over the weekend.
Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump claimed that he helped India and Pakistan reach a ceasefire and stopped a "nuclear conflict".
"On Saturday, my administration helped broker a full and immediate ceasefire, I think, a permanent one between India and Pakistan, ending a dangerous conflict of two nations with lots of nuclear weapons," he said.
"I'm very proud to let you know that the leadership of India and Pakistan was unwavering, powerful, but unwavering in both cases, having these they really were from the standpoint of having the strength and the wisdom and fortitude to fully know and to understand the gravity of the situation," he added.
The relations between India and Pakistan deteriorated after the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26. In retaliation, India launched Operation Sindoor targeting nine terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. However, Prime Minister Narendra Modi hinted that the operation wasn't over calling it the "new normal".
