This was besides the first time that the incumbent chief of Pakistan's army was formally admitted at this level without holding a political office or ruling in the state of war, added the newspaper.“He [Munir] agreed with me. The reason I invited him here was due to the fact that I wanted to thank him for not going into war [with India].”, told Trump reporters after the meeting.

"I would besides like to thank Prime Minister [India] Modi, who left just a fewer days ago.

We're working on a trade agreement with India and Pakistan.

These 2 very wise people decided not to prosecute a war that could be a atomic war.

Pakistan and India are 2 large atomic powers."A fewer hours before Munir's admission, the U.S. president had a telephone conversation with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who confirmed fresh Delhi's long-standing stance against 3rd organization intervention in his relations with Pakistan.
