Pakistan Army Chief Munir spoke to Trump, told him Hormuz blockade is hurdle to talksTrump told Munir he would consider his adviceA senior Pakistani security source has confirmed that Chief of Army Staff General Asim Munir held a conversation with US President Trump regarding the escalating tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. During the call, General Munir reportedly suggested that the ongoing blockade in the Strait of Hormuz has become the single most significant hurdle to the success of the Islamabad-mediated peace talks. The source noted that the Army Chief conveyed a clear message that de-escalation in the Strait of Hormuz is a prerequisite for moving toward a meaningful diplomatic breakthrough between Washington and Tehran.Munir argued that the economic and military pressures resulting from the blockade have created a climate of mistrust that prevents teams from finalizing the proposed framework for regional stability. The General reportedly suggested that a calibrated easing of naval tensions would provide the necessary room to sustain the current momentum of the negotiations.President Trump’s response was described by the source as receptive but non-committal. The President told the Army Chief that he would consider his advice, acknowledging Pakistan's role as a primary bridge in the current conflict. This dialogue underscores the growing strategic reliance on the "Munir-Trump" back-channel, which has become a central pillar of the current administration's approach to Middle Eastern stability.
