President Donald Trump offered on Wednesday to mark the tensions between India and Pakistan, which has intensified as the results of a recently Islamist terrorist attack in the Cashmiro region.

Trump commented on the situation hours after India said her Armed Forces made strikes against Pakistan on Wednesday.

“It’s terrible,” Trump said about the conflict.

“My position is that I get along with both,” Trump said in the Oval office after throwing former Senator David Perdue or Georgia as the United States ambassador to China.

“I know both well, and I want to see it solve it,” said the president. “I want to see them stop, and I hope they can stop now.”

He added that the United States has good relations with both countries and wants to see the “Tit -for-Tat” stop.

“If I can do something to help, I will be there,” Trump said.

Trump told the White House journalists on Tuesday night that India and Pakistan have been fighting for “a long time” and involved that growing tensions may have been planned “based on a bit of the past.”

India has blamed Pakistan for the massacre of April 22, 26 civilians in the Kashmir section controlled by India, a region of the Himalayas.

Both India and Pakistan affirm that every Kashmir is part of their country.
