India and Pakistan need to sit and talk about their ongoing border tension, the Trump Administration said on Wednesday. “We think that both sides would certainly have to sit down and have talks about that,” State Department spokesperson Heather Nauert told reporters at her daily news conference.

She was responding to a question on what role the US can play to ease down the tensions between the two neighbouring countries.
