Video: Vance calls Asim Munir an important partner and friend US Vice President JD Vance said he had “two very, very important people” in his life, describing them as “an Indian and a Pakistani”, adding that “the Indian is my wife, and the Pakistani is Field Marshal Munir”. He said he had spoken to Field Marshal Asim Munir “more than I’ve talked to anybody else over the last 3 months”, crediting him as “a great military leader” and “great diplomat”, and calling him “an important part of getting us to this point” and “an amazing friend of the United States”. The repeated contact comes amid ongoing US-Pakistan security and diplomatic engagement, including discussions linked to regional stability and broader Middle East tensions.
