NEW DELHI/ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Hopes rose on Sunday for an easing of tension between nuclear-armed rivals India and Pakistan after a senior U.S. peace envoy said he expected India to take steps to cool the conflict in the next few days....

...India said it welcomed a Pakistani pledge to stop rebel infiltration.

But Armitage cautioned that the crisis over the disputed Kashmir (news - web sites) region was not over yet.

"When you have close to a million men glaring, shouting and occasionally shooting across a territory that is a matter of some dispute, then I think you couldn't say the crisis is over, but I think you can say that the tensions are down measurably," Armitage told reporters.
