In an interview with American media outlet Axios, Trump referred to Pakistan while discussing international relations and ongoing diplomatic efforts between global leaders.
He mentioned Pakistan’s leadership, including Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Chief of Defence Forces Field Marshal Asim Munir, and suggested that Pakistan’s regional connections and communication channels contributed positively to diplomatic engagement.
According to Trump, Pakistan’s familiarity with regional stakeholders helped support dialogue between the involved parties during discussions related to the Iran–US understanding.
He also spoke more broadly about international security challenges and past tensions between major regional powers, emphasizing the importance of diplomatic efforts in preventing further escalation.
