A recent White House luncheon between U.S. President Donald Trump and Pakistan's military chief, Asim Munir, has triggered significant concern in India, prompting New Delhi to reconsider its diplomatic and strategic ties with both the United States and China. The meeting is seen as a strategic setback for India, which has long opposed any U.S. mediation in its disputes with Pakistan. This renewed U.S.-Pakistan engagement comes amid ongoing trade disagreements between the U.S. and India, particularly over agricultural tariffs, and as the U.S. seeks to balance its interests in South Asia. The developments have led India to explore closer ties with China, while also reassessing its economic and security partnerships. The situation underscores the complex and shifting alliances in South Asia, with potential impacts on defense, energy, and regional stability.
