Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif praised US President Donald Trump on Thursday, calling him a “peace man of peace” determined to resolve global conflicts.
In a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office, Shahbaz quoted that President Trump’s bold and decisive leadership has played a key role in brokering the Pakistan India Seas Fire, which has helped avoid avoiding the “major catastrophe” in South Asia.
Discarding the situation in the Middle East, the Prime Minister praised President Trump’s efforts to immediately end the war in Gaza, especially earlier this week, his move to invite key leaders of the Muslim world in New York, especially in Gaza and the West Bank, for peace.
Prime Minister Shahbaz, who was bound by Field Marshal Asim Munir at a rare meeting, also thanked President Trump for tariff arrangements between Pakistan and the United States earlier this year.
Recalling a long-standing partnership between the two countries, the Prime Minister expressed confidence that under the leadership of President Trump, the partnership of Pakistan-US will be further strengthened for the mutual benefit of the two countries.
In this regard, the Prime Minister invited US companies to invest in Pakistan’s agriculture, IT, mines and minerals and energy sectors.
The two leaders also discussed regional security, including counter -terrorism cooperation. Prime Minister Shahbaz thanked President Trump for his public confirmation of Pakistan’s role in terrorism and emphasized the need to further enhance security and intelligence.
He also gave President Trump a passionate and pleasant invitation to make a formal visit to Pakistan.
Prior to the meeting, which lasted for more than an hour, the US President, talking to the media, called Prime Minister Shahbaz and Field Marshal Munir “great” people.
In photos released from the White House, Prime Minister Shahbaz, Koas Field Munir and President Trump appeared to be busy with a pleasant conversation. During the meeting, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Venice were also present.
Reacting to this development, Defense Minister Khawaja Asif said that 2025 was full of successes for Pakistan so far, which highlighted victory over India, signing a defense agreement with Saudi Arabia, and extraordinary progress in Pakistan -US relations.
He added that the success of the “hybrid system” contribution continued to turn fruit, and described these progress in terms of thanksgiving and pride.
Washington has warmed Pakistan’s relations in recent months under Trump after seeing Pakistan’s rival India as a competition in Asia as China’s influence in Asia.
Talking to Geo News, Democratic leader Shahid Khan called the recent meeting very important, saying it had completely brought Pakistan-US relations to a new level.
Considering the talks between Pakistan’s top leadership and the US President, Khan, who served as a member of the President’s Advisory Committee on Arts during the Biden term, noted that Pakistan has not only strengthened its importance in Southeast Asia but also in the Middle East.
He argued that Pakistan now has a permanent seat on the table because of India’s misunderstandings, as well as the Palestinian questions and Islamabad’s strong position in its balanced site about Iran.
He said that these factors have gained Pakistan as growing all over the world, both Western countries and the United States are more inclined to it than ever.
Khan further emphasized that Pakistan’s four -day war earlier this year has shown considerable strength of the country.
He added that the conflict reduced India’s long -term contender as a “patron of security”, while raising Pakistan’s role as a decisive player in the strategic landscape of Southeast Asia.
Talking to Geo News, analyst Qamar Cheema describes the meeting as crucial, noting that it reflects the change in Pakistan-US relations with security-based relations toward geographical economics.
He cited President Trump’s announcement of plans to send US companies to Pakistan to launch oil exploration projects.
Cheema termed it a water shedding moment, saying that the US president was offering to promote Pakistan’s economy.
Talking to Geo News, journalist Faiz Rehman said that Pakistan not only shares a long border with Iran but also from deep root, which has spread over centuries-from culture and civilization and food to language and trade. He said that these sustainable links make Pakistan a unique way to make its neighbor in a sincere dialogue.
Rehman stressed that with the Trump meeting in the background, Pakistan’s access to Iranian leaders is of paramount importance. In his words, these engagements are “bridges of trust” that can help stabilize the tumultuous region.
He further observed that Trump is a businessman, and his warmth against Pakistan is not an account. Rehman argued that the President sees a partner in Pakistan, which is capable of providing several fronts, such as diplomacy, geopolitics and defense.
US Pakistan relations after the war in India
Washington’s relations with New Delhi have been examined by the Republican leader about visa barriers to Indians, high tariff rates imposed by Trump on Indian goods, and Trump has repeatedly claimed that he had a war in India in May in May.
India’s attacks were forced to launch Operation Bonyan Um-Marsus, including three Rafales, including six Indian Air Force fighter jets in response to Indian invasion.
The conflict eventually ended through an American broker ceasefire for which Pakistan has given President Trump a support, while he has also nominated him for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Since then, Islamabad and Washington have been engaged in high -level interactions between both civil and military leadership, and they have finalized a much more trade agreement, reflecting the improving relations between the two countries.
The United States and Pakistan announced a trade agreement on July 31, in which Washington imposed a 19 % revenue rate, while a trade agreement with India is still pending.
Officials and analysts have noted that after a tension with Washington, New Delhi is regaining relations with China as a hedge.
Trump welcomed Field Marshal Munir earlier this year, the first time an American president hosted the Pakistan Army chief at the White House, which was fought by senior Pakistani civilian officials.
“When it comes to economic and trade relations, when we talk about counter -terrorism, we are working on a number of issues,” a senior state official told reporters at a briefing on Tuesday when asked about Pakistan.
“And thus the president is focused on advancing US interests in the region, including involvement with Pakistan and its official leaders.”
