Asim Munir
Asim Munir US Trip: Pakistani Army Chief Asim Munir will visit the US again this month. This will be his second visit to Washington in two months, which indicates bilateral relations. Let us tell you that Asim Munir will attend the farewell ceremony of United States Central Command (CENTCOM) Commander General Michael Kurilla. He had described Pakistan as an important ally in anti-terrorism operations.
Four-star General Kurilla, who oversees the US military's activities in the Middle East, is going to retire at the end of this month. Some time ago, he had praised Pakistan. He had said that Pakistan had caught 5 ISIS-K terrorists with the help of intelligence received from the US.
General Kurilla supported Pakistan in front of the US Parliament's Defense Committee and said that Pakistan has cooperated a lot in the fight against terrorism. Therefore, we need to build good relations with both India and Pakistan. However, after this, the question arises that when India is constantly trying to explain to the world that Pakistan promotes terrorism, India did not like the praise of Pakistan.
India saw this as a return to the old days when India and Pakistan were seen as equals. In response to this praise, Pakistan honored Gen. Kurilla with its highest civilian award, the Nishan-e-Imtiaz, during his visit to Islamabad in July. All these events show that the military and strategic partnership between Pakistan and the US is getting stronger again. In June, Pakistan's Gen. Munir met former US President Donald Trump over lunch, just weeks after the Pahalgam terror attack and India's Operation Sindoor.
