Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir is set to attend the US Army Day celebrations in Washington DC on June 14, marking the Army’s 250th anniversary. Sources told CNN-News18 that the visit reflects Pakistan’s strategic relevance amid US-China tensions, rather than a shift in India policy. The US may pressure Munir to act against terror groups targeting India and Afghanistan. Pakistan will seek investment and US assurances on TTP. India remains firm against any third-party mediation on Kashmir. The visit has sparked political backlash in Pakistan, with PTI planning protests and calling Munir a “criminal.” Outcomes remain uncertain. (PC: News18)
