Pakistani PM credits Trump for 2025 intervention, raises Kashmir at UNGA
Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif credited US President Donald Trump for his "timely intervention" in the 2025 conflict with India during his UN General Assembly address on Friday, while again raising the Kashmir issue. India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, 2025, targeting terror infrastructure in Pakistan following the April 22 Pahalgam attack that killed 26 civilians. Trump has repeatedly claimed he stopped the war, but New Delhi has consistently denied any third-party intervention. Sharif thanked Trump for saving "hundreds of millions of lives" and called for a just solution to Kashmir. India has rejected Pakistan's assertions, stating Jammu and Kashmir remains an integral part of India. Sharif also discussed the Indus Waters Treaty, which India has held in abeyance, and touted Pakistan's role in brokering peace between the US and Iran.
