COAS Asim Munir to Visit US for CENTCOM Chief’s Retirement Ceremony

On August 7, 2025, foreign media reported that Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, will travel to the United States this week to attend the retirement ceremony of U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) chief General Michael Kurilla.

Munir’s trip marks his second visit to the U.S. in less than two months, following a June meeting with President Donald Trump. In July, President Asif Ali Zardari awarded Kurilla the Nishan-e-Imtiaz (Military) and praised his positive remarks about Pakistan.

In June 2025, Munir held a rare two-hour meeting with Trump at the White House, joined by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, U.S. Special Representative Steve Witkoff, and Pakistan’s national security adviser. The meeting took place after an 87-hour conflict between Pakistan and India in May, initiated by the Pahalgam attack in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) and India’s subsequent strikes inside Pakistan. During this conflict, Pakistan launched Operation Bunyan-um-Marsoos, downing six Indian jets and resulting in 40 civilian deaths and 13 military casualties. Munir praised Trump’s “constructive and result-oriented role” in brokering a U.S.-led ceasefire, while Trump commended Munir’s leadership.

The White House talks also focused on enhancing cooperation in trade, energy, minerals, artificial intelligence, cryptocurrency, and emerging technologies. The two sides finalised a significant trade agreement, which President Trump later announced on social media. The deal aims to reduce tariffs on Pakistani exports and strengthen collaboration on joint oil reserve development. Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb, Ambassador Rizwan Saeed Sheikh, and Commerce Secretary Jawad Paul negotiated the agreement with U.S. officials, though the Ministry of Finance has yet to disclose specific details.

Munir’s attendance at Kurilla’s retirement ceremony highlights deepening U.S.-Pakistan military and diplomatic ties. While authorities have not announced any additional engagements, the visit reinforces ongoing cooperation at a time of complex regional challenges, including Pakistan’s delicate balance with India and Iran. The trade agreement and strengthened military dialogue position the two countries for a strategic partnership that could boost Pakistan’s global economic standing.
