Trump claims on India-Pakistan arbitration
Since his return to power, Trump has repeatedly credited for reducing tension between India and Pakistan. He often says that he “ended the struggle” and meditated the ceasefire after the Pahalgam massacre of Jammu and Kashmir on 22 April, where 26 civilians were killed in a cruel terrorist attack. In retaliation, the Indian armed forces started Operation Sindoor on 7 May, in which accurate missile attacks were carried out on terrorist camps in Jaish-e-Mohammed’s stronghold Bahawalpur. Soon after, Trump announced on social media that India and Pakistan had agreed to the full and immediate “ceasefire after a conversation of Washington’s mediation” long night “. Since then, he has reiterated this claim more than 40 times in recent months. However, India strongly stated that the ceasefire agreement was directly held between the Directorate of Military Operations (DGMO) of the two countries without any foreign arbitration.
What does Trump-Sharif meet for India?
For New Delhi, the meeting of Trump-Sharif, on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, is not just a normal diplomatic meeting, but a sign that is necessary to keep an eye on. This meeting is taking place at a time when India’s relations with both Washington and Islamabad are tense. Trump’s frequent rhetoric of “mediation” between India and Pakistan is not appearing for New Delhi, especially after Operation Sindoor, in which India demonstrated its ability and intention to attack the terrorist structure within Pakistan.
Trump’s recent meeting with Pak army chief
The time of the United Nations General Assembly meeting is important as it is taking place only a few weeks after Trump meeting the Pakistani Army Chief General (now Field Marshal) Asim Munir. The meeting after Operation Sindoor had raised concern in Indian strategic circles, as the Pakistani army records of sheltering terrorist organizations is quite old. Indian security officials believe that such talks encourage Islamabad to show themselves suffering on international forums and continue their dual policy of promoting cross -border terrorism.
