G7 Urges 'Immediate De-Escalation' in India-Pakistan Conflict
The G7 group of nations on Friday called for "immediate de-escalation" and "maximum restraint" in the conflict between India and Pakistan, as the nuclear-armed neighbors spiraled toward full-blown war.
"Further military escalation poses a serious threat to regional stability," the foreign ministers of the seven wealthy democracies said in a statement, adding that both sides should "engage in direct dialogue towards a peaceful outcome."
