Janhit: Asim Munir Threatens Half the World with Nukes, Targets India Over Water | ABP NEWS
In a highly provocative move, Pakistan's Army Chief General Asim Munir issued a nuclear threat against India while addressing an event on U.S. soil—marking the first time such a warning has been made from America. Munir, currently on his second U.S. visit in two months, made the statement during a dinner hosted by Pakistani expatriates in Tampa, Florida. He threatened to launch missiles if India proceeded with dam construction by revoking the Indus Waters Treaty. Munir also compared India to a Mercedes and Pakistan to a heavy dump truck, suggesting that a collision would damage India more. Ironically, this analogy was seen as a self-goal, reflecting Pakistan's fragile state. He reignited the Kashmir issue, calling it Pakistan’s “jugular vein,” a stance India has repeatedly rejected as interference in its internal matters. The timing is notable as former U.S. President Donald Trump recently imposed a 50% tariff hike on Indian goods, raising suspicions about U.S. influence on Pakistan’s aggression. India condemned Munir’s statements, calling them irresponsible and a habitual practice by Pakistan. India affirmed its right to defend its national interests and security. Munir's remarks have drawn criticism globally, with concerns over Pakistan’s nuclear rhetoric and growing instability.
