Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has once again expressed gratitude to former US President Donald Trump for purportedly facilitating a ceasefire in the India-Pakistan conflict that escalated in May. Despite India’s consistent denial of any third-party involvement in the negotiations, Sharif has reiterated claims of Trump’s decisive leadership in restoring peace following intense cross-border tensions. Following India’s Operation Sindoor, which targeted terror infrastructure, Sharif emphasized Pakistan’s commitment to sovereignty and territorial integrity while referencing Azerbaijan’s victory in Karabakh as a symbol of hope for nations facing oppression. This narrative underscores the complexities of regional geopolitics, where perceptions of external mediation play a significant role in diplomatic relations.
