The phone conversation between Jaishankar and Rubio came as Indian and Pakistani militaries targeted each other’s installations, escalating the already serious confrontations.
“Had a conversation with US @SecRubio this morning. India’s approach has always been measured and responsible and remains so,” Jaishankar said in a social media post.
The US State Department said Rubio emphasised that both sides need to identify methods to de-escalate and re-establish direct communication to avoid miscalculation.
“He further proposed US support in facilitating productive discussions to avert future disputes,” State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce said.
