Asim Munir shopping in the US? Viral video claims
Did Asim Munir go mall hopping in the United States ahead of his meeting with Trump? An undated video showing Munir shopping in a mall is circulating widely on social media, prompting netizens to question if he took time off from his official visit for leisure. Munir is currently on a five-day official visit to the United States.
In the video, the 11th Chief of Army Staff of the Pakistan Army is seen walking inside a mall. However, the authenticity of the video remains in question.

The Pakistan Tribune uploaded the video on Facebook, with the caption, “Pakistan’s Field Marshal General Asim Munir and Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi Spotted somewhere [Shopping Mall] in the US.” The clip was also widely circulated on X, where many criticised Munir for sightseeing.
As per Grok, the conversational AI chatbot developed by Elon Musk’s company xAI, “The claim that Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir was sightseeing in an American mall is likely false or exaggerated.”
‘Honoured to meet him’: Donald Trump
Trump said he was ‘honoured’ to meet Asim Munir and thanked him for not entering the war with India. Speaking after their meeting, he said, “The reason I had him here was I wanted to thank him for not going into the war and ending the war. Prime Minister Modi just left a little while ago, and we are working on a trade deal with India. We are working on a trade deal with Pakistan…. I am so happy. Two smart people, two very smart people, decided not to keep going with the war. Those are two big nuclear powers. I was honoured to meet him today.”
