The United States has officially designated The Resistance Front (TRF), a proxy of Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), as a Foreign Terrorist Organization following its claim of responsibility for the deadly Pahalgam attack in Indian-administered Kashmir. This move has been welcomed by India and several international actors as a significant step in countering cross-border terrorism, while Pakistan initially objected but later shifted its stance to support the US decision, though it denied TRF's direct links to LeT. The designation increases diplomatic pressure on Pakistan to act against terror groups operating from its soil, and has prompted concerns that such groups may rebrand to evade sanctions. The development highlights growing India-US counter-terror cooperation and has drawn calls for enhanced regional efforts against terrorism from countries like China and the UK. The situation underscores the ongoing challenges of proxy warfare and the complexities of international counter-terror diplomacy in South Asia.
