The recent Trump Munir meeting at the White House has left a lasting impact. It marked a major moment in Pakistan’s diplomatic history. But sadly, it also gave birth to fresh waves of propaganda. While Indian lobbies naturally pushed anti-Pakistan narratives, some elements inside Pakistan also fueled conspiracy theories. These domestic voices played directly into the hands of the country’s enemies.
This disturbing trend isn’t new. It was seen during the Pakistan-India standoff when some voices tried to discredit our armed forces. Despite global media confirming the events and Pakistan’s successful response, a few people attempted to blur the facts. The same is happening now with the Trump Munir meeting. What was clearly a diplomatic triumph is now being questioned by people with hidden agendas.
The public knows the record of Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir. His commitment to national sovereignty has never been in doubt. When India openly challenged Pakistan’s borders, he didn’t hesitate. His response was swift, powerful, and filled with courage. That same leadership earned him respect not just in Pakistan but in military circles around the world. His promotion to Field Marshal was a reflection of national trust. The Trump Munir meeting added international recognition to his already well-established reputation.
This high-level interaction between the US President and Pakistan’s Army Chief was a major breakthrough. It set the tone for renewed bilateral cooperation. Yet, rattled by this diplomatic success, India’s media machinery quickly went to work. Troll farms, fake analysts, and social media cells started spinning baseless stories.
The most bizarre lie they spread was that the US had asked Pakistan for military support in a possible strike against Iran—and that Field Marshal Munir agreed. According to these conspiracy theories, Trump offered mediation on Kashmir and trade perks in return. The aim of this false campaign was clear: create sectarian discord within Pakistan and damage its strong relations with Iran.
But these wild claims don’t hold up. The United States already has military bases and assets across the Middle East, including aircraft carriers. It doesn’t need Pakistani soil for any operation. Its renewed presence in Afghanistan further disproves any such need.
The Trump Munir meeting was never about war plans. It focused on diplomacy and peace. Both leaders discussed the Iran-Israel conflict and agreed on the need for resolution. ISPR provided clarity and dismissed the rumors. The Foreign Office also reaffirmed Pakistan’s clear stance: solidarity with Iran and condemnation of Israel’s provocations. Pakistan warned that these actions threaten peace in the entire region.
Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif backed this view. He said the very nature of the discussions at the White House showed Pakistan’s rising global relevance. “Pakistan’s role in resolving international issues has been acknowledged,” he emphasized.
The Trump Munir meeting wasn’t just a media event. It was proof of Pakistan’s balanced diplomacy and the professionalism of its military leadership. Those who try to spread confusion must understand that national interests stand above political gain. Their frustration only highlights the success of Pakistan’s approach.
Let there be no doubt. Pakistan’s voice matters. And the world is listening.
