Pakistan Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif may meet President Donald Trump during his visit to the US next week to attend the UN General Assembly session. Pakistani media outlets have quoted sources as saying that the meeting between Shahbaz Sharif and Trump is expected to take place on September 25. The meeting may take place on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly session in New York.
Pakistan's Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir is also likely to attend the meeting. This possible meeting is taking place after the growing diplomatic relations between the US and Pakistan in 2025. Earlier this year, Trump hosted Munir at the White House.
According to reports, issues ranging from floods in Pakistan to the Israeli attack on Qatar and the Pakistan-India situation are also likely to be discussed during this meeting.
It is noteworthy that Trump has repeatedly claimed that he brokered a ceasefire between the two nuclear-armed neighbors, while now Pakistan's Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar has also clarified that India had categorically refused any third-party mediation in resolving bilateral issues during 'Operation Sindhur'.
