China Claims Mediation in India-Pakistan Tensions; India Rejects Third-Party Role

• China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi claimed Beijing "mediated" India-Pakistan tensions during the May 7-10 conflict.
• India firmly rejects this, stating de-escalation occurred through direct military-level talks between DGMOs.
• Wang Yi listed India-Pakistan alongside other global conflicts where China allegedly adopted an "objective and just stance."
• India maintains there is no role for third-party intervention in its matters with Pakistan.
• China's claim is sensitive due to its significant military aid to Pakistan and past comments on India's actions.
