...The Turkish foreign ministry called on both parties to "exercise common sense and refrain from unilateral actions."

They added, "We expect that measures will be taken to reduce tensions in the region as soon as possible and that the necessary mechanisms, including in the field of counter-terrorism, will be put in place to prevent the recurrence of similar incidents. We also support Pakistan's call for an investigation into the 22 April terrorist attack."

...Azerbaijan also issued a statement soon after the attack, condemning violence against Pakistan.

In their statement they said, "The Republic of Azerbaijan expresses its concern over the further escalation of tension between the Republic of India and the Islamic Republic of Pakistan."

Further, the foreign ministry wrote, "We condemn military attacks against the Islamic Republic of Pakistan that killed and injured several civilians. Being in solidarity with the people of Pakistan, we express condolences to the families of the innocent victims and wish a speedy recovery to those who were injured."

In a statement released on X, Qatar's foreign ministry stated on Wednesday regarding Operation Sindoor, "The State of Qatar is following with deep concern the continued escalation between the Republic of India and the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and Qatar urges both countries to exercise maximum restraint, give priority to the voice of wisdom, respect the principles of good neighborliness, and resolve the crisis through diplomatic means."

...In the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack, which led to the death of 26 civilians in Jammu and Kashmir, the Indian Armed Forces launched a strike at nine terror targets, all of which were successful.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Turkiye was one of the few countries which supported Pakistan after India's Operation Sindoor which received global support for targeting terror camps in Pakistan and PoK.

[snip] Foreign Minister of Armenia, Ararat Mirzoyan [condemned the terrorist attack] ... Pakistan is the only country in the world that does not recognize Armenia... In 2020, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan accused Pakistani Special Forces of collaborating with the Azerbaijani military in the Nagorno-Karabakh region. During an interview with the Russian news agency Rossiya Segodnya on October 15, Pashinyan claimed that Pakistani troops, in conjunction with Turkish forces, were involved in the ongoing conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh. Pakistan has not just used terror as a geopolitical tool against its neighbors, but also exported terror to region like Nagorno-Karabakh to eliminate its enemy Armenia, that according to its strategic community is a “Kafir” non-Muslim nation preventing connectivity between Turkey and Azerbaijan, which have majority Muslim populations.

Why does Pakistan allow terrorist training camps? Does Turkey ask that question? No.

Eventually, Turkey will be our biggest enemy. I hope Trump is aware of this.

“Why does Pakistan allow terrorist training camps? “

Why does the U.S. allow Muslim training camps in the U.S.?

Putin employs Chechen terrorists, supports Houthi terrorists, supports the Iranian terrorist state and directly or indirectly its terrorist proxies, and until the Assad dynasty got kicked out of Syria, supported the hereditary dictatorship there. The USSR helped usher in 'modern' jihad as a matter of policy, and Russia has continued supporting it via its alliances. So why shouldn't P, and why should T?

Pakistan's not unlikely to have a coup soon. There have been six coups plus a soft coup when al-Haq died, and five other attempts. I wonder, didn't check, if some of these didn't follow closely behind one of the earlier wars Pakistan started with India.

A civil war could fire up involving the Baloch population (Iranian relatives), but they are only about 3% of the entire Paki pop. There are over 4 million more in Iran and over a million in Afghanistan.

Why United Allows mosques in every city? Those are breeding grounds for radical fanatics.

You’re so worried about them, log off and go fight for them. Otherwise STFU.
