Summary
New revelations have put the spotlight on US subversion in Imran Khan's ouster and the simultaneous rise of the Pakistan army. The leaked Pakistani cable is from 7 March 2022 and details what happened in the meeting between then Pakistan's ambassador in US- Asad Majeed Khan & Donald Lu, the U.S. assistant secretary of state for South and Central Asian affairs. #CutTheClutter with ThePrint Editor-In-Chief looks at what this cypher reveals, how it played a role not only in Pakistan's politics but also in the geopolitics of the region, as well as that of China and the US. This episode also looks at the simultaneous rise of Asim Munir as US' 'favourite Field Marshall'. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Read Drop Site's report here: https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/pakistan-mediator-united-states-iran-trump-imran-khan -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Watch Cut The Clutter on Munir's appointment as Pakistan Army Chief in November 2022 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KX58QJAlYU
