Michael Kugelman, a Washington-based South Asia analyst and writer for the Foreign Policy magazine, said India is now a much closer U.S. partner than Pakistan.

India has yet to present clear evidence of who conducted the attack on April 22nd that killed 26 mostly Hindu men in Pahalgam, a popular tourist spot in the Muslim-majority region. But local police are searching for two Pakistani suspects and one Indian.

As world powers face multiple crises, the one set off by a terror attack in Kashmir is getting scant attention or help in de-escalating between nuclear-armed neighbors.
