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 supported by China, while Pakistan's government, after initial resistance, has shifted to a stance of 'no objection' to the US designation, though it denies TRF's direct links to LeT. The designation is seen as a significant step in increasing diplomatic pressure on Pakistan to curb cross-border terrorism and has prompted concerns that Pakistan may attempt to rebrand its terror proxies. The development highlights growing international cooperation against terrorism and underscores the evolving tactics of terror groups in the region. The decision has also sparked calls for broader global action and vigilance against the rebranding of such organizations.
