India can't go on with the fighting! The Indian military is seeking peace proactively! According to foreign media reports on May 10, foreign media reported that Pakistan and India communicated through a hot line. The Indian side said they were willing to coexist peacefully with Pakistan. At the same time, an Indian Army spokesman stated that Pakistan had hit 26 sets of equipment of theirs, and the Indian military "noticed the aggression," but reiterated that New Delhi did not seek to escalate tensions.
Colonel Sofia, the Indian Army spokesperson, said that if Pakistan also agreed to de-escalate the conflict, they were prepared to stop the conflict as well. Clearly, this statement from India indicates that they no longer want to continue fighting. To be honest, now that the conflict has escalated, Pakistan, taking advantage of air superiority, clearly has the upper hand. Comparing the strength of both sides, India's army was superior, while Pakistan's air force was stronger.
However, after Pakistan struck targets within Indian territory by entering its airspace, it showed that Pakistan had completely seized air control. In such a situation, India's army certainly dared not act rashly either. If India continued to fight, it might suffer greater losses and lose even more miserably. It's estimated that India had a lot of pent-up frustration. A battle meant to teach the opponent a lesson ended up becoming a defensive war instead.
Now, timely cooling down is undoubtedly a wise choice. War is not just a matter of war itself; if it expands, the impact on India's economy will be even greater. Pakistan has already attacked 70% of India's power grid, testing its capabilities. If Pakistan directly bombed India's high-value economic targets like energy and power grids, India's economic development might regress.
