Following India's Operation Sindoor, Pakistan launched an intensive lobbying campaign in Washington, spending approximately $5 million (around Rs 45 crore) to influence the Trump administration and US institutions. Documents filed under the US Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) reveal Pakistani diplomats and lobbyists made dozens of contacts with US officials, lawmakers, and media outlets. Pakistan sought US intervention to halt India's military actions, expressing concerns that strikes could resume. India, meanwhile, engaged a US firm to facilitate communication with policymakers regarding business and bilateral relations, without seeking mediation or a ceasefire.
