  India-Pakistan War Threat: Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has threatened India with war at the United Nations. He stated that India should not make the mistake of blocking the waters of the Indus River, warning that if such an attempt were made, Pakistan would consider it an act of war. Shehbaz emphasized that water should never be used as a weapon and urged India not to err in this matter. He alleged that India had suspended the treaty following the India-Pakistan conflict last year—a move he claimed lacked any legal basis. He asserted that UN experts and the Permanent Court of Arbitration had also rejected India's claims in this matter, thereby vindicating Pakistan's position. Kashmir highlighted as a crucial issue During his speech, Shehbaz Sharif raised the Kashmir issue, describing it as a matter of great importance. He also referred to the heightened tensions between India and Pakistan following the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, in April 2025—an attack that claimed the lives of 26 people. On the other hand, India alleges that the terrorists involved in the attack had the backing of Pakistan. Shahbaz claimed that the Pakistan Army, under the leadership of Field Marshal Asim Munir, had given a befitting response to the situation. Shahbaz Sharif Praises US President Praising US President Donald Trump, Shahbaz stated that Trump played a crucial role in de-escalating tensions and averting a war-like situation between the two countries in May 2025, noting that a major conflict was avoided thanks to his efforts. He emphasized that such a situation should not arise again in South Asia and that resolving the Kashmir issue is essential for this purpose. UNGA. Indian official Gehlot gave a sharp rebuttal to these claims by Shahbaz Sharif, exercising the 'Right of Reply'. Gehlot made it clear that Pakistan cannot turn a lie into the truth simply by repeating it year after year.
