US President Donald Trump said late May 10 he would increase trade "substantially" with India and Pakistan.

"I am going to increase trade, substantially, with both of these great Nations," he posted on TruthSocial after the arch-rivals agreed to a ceasefire after days of deadly fighting.

However, since the ceasefire was announced, both sides have traded accusations of truce violations.

India said on May 10 that Pakistan had repeatedly violated ceasefire agreed between them just hours earlier and that it was retaliating, after days of military confrontation between the nuclear-armed neighbours.

India's foreign secretary Vikram Misri said Saturday there had been "repeated violations" and that the "armed forces are giving an adequate and appropriate response to these violations."
