WASHINGTON, DC – Vice President JD Vance has stated that the India-Pakistan conflict is “fundamentally none of America’s business” and falls outside the United States’ ability to control. Speaking to Fox News, Vance emphasized a restrained U.S. role, arguing that while Washington can encourage de-escalation, it cannot intervene directly.

Vice President JD Vance said on Thursday that India and Pakistan should de-escalate tensions, but he added that the U.S. cannot control the nuclear-armed neighbors.

Vice President JD Vance said the United States cannot tell India or Pakistan to lay down their arms in a renewed conflict, saying it is "fundamentally none of our business."
