A ceasefire brings relief, but hope is not a strategy. India & Pakistan must de-escalate before the next crisis turns nuclear.

Former President Trump’s call to send U.S. troops into Mexico to fight cartels is reckless and dangerous.
We at @PeaceEconomySTL say clearly:
Real security comes from diplomacy—not deployment. 🕊️
