US Vice President J.D. Vance’s remarks during the Iran peace talks in Switzerland deserve far greater attention in New Delhi than they have received so far. Reflecting on the diplomacy of the past three months, Vance said that he had “probably talked to [Pakistani] Field Marshal [Asim] Munir more than I’ve talked to anybody else”.
He went further, declaring, “We would not be here without his statesmanship,” describing Munir as “a great diplomat” and “an amazing friend of the United States”. These were extraordinary words for the Vice President of the US to pronounce in public. Moving beyond diplomatic pleasantries, they were a public acknowledgement that Pakistan’s army chief has been one of the US’ closest foreign interlocutors during the most dangerous crisis of Donald Trump’s second presidency.
