In an unexpected move the Indian prime minister, Narendra Modi, visited Pakistan yesterday and met with his counterpart, Nawaz Sharif.
The visit, which was nonchalantly announced on Twitter, is being seen as a sign of attempts to improve relations between the two countries.
"Looking forward to meeting PM Nawaz Sharif in Lahore today afternoon, where I will drop by on my way back to Delhi," Mr Modi tweeted on Friday after stating he had wished Mr Sharif on his birthday.
Mr Modi later tweeted about his visit, stating he was "personally touched by Nawaz Sharif Sahab 's gesture of welcoming me at Lahore airport and coming to the airport when I left."
