India’s arrogance pushed US closer to Pakistan, says ex-US general

- We are now becoming much closer to Pakistan: ex-US general.
- Mark Kimmitt says development should concern New Delhi.
- President Trump has cordial relationship with COAS Munir, he adds.
Retired US brigadier general Mark Kimmitt has said that Washington’s growing closeness with Pakistan is largely due to India’s arrogance.
Speaking on Piers Morgan Uncensored, the retired US general said that President Donald Trump has established a cordial relationship with Field Marshal Asim Munir — a development he said should concern New Delhi.
“India’s arrogance that’s been displayed to President Trump manifests itself in the fact that we are now becoming much closer to Pakistan,” he said.
“Field Marshal Munir has now a bromance with President Trump that should actually give India some pause,” Kimmitt added.
Friction between Modi and Trump grew after the US president repeatedly spoke about how he prevented a nuclear war — an assertion that India rejected, insisting the ceasefire was agreed upon directly between the two nations.
The tensions came to a head in a June 17 phone call with Narendra Modi, which was held after Trump left the Group of Seven summit in Canada early and couldn’t meet the Indian leader in person.
Field Marshal Munir last visited the US in June, where he held a rare one-on-one meeting with Trump at the White House Cabinet Room.
The June visit took place against the backdrop of an armed Pakistan-India conflict, during which Washington helped broker a ceasefire following Indian strikes inside Pakistan, which New Delhi claims targeted those responsible for the Pahalgam attack in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).
Pakistan responded with Operation Bunyan-um-Marsoos, downing multiple Indian fighter jets.
A day earlier, PM Modi had said that New Delhi and Washington still shared “very positive” ties.
The Indian PM, in a social media statement, expressed optimism about New Delhi’s relation with Washington after President Trump reaffirmed his personal friendship with the Indian premier and downplayed his earlier remarks about “losing India” to China.
“Deeply appreciate and fully reciprocate President Trump’s sentiments and positive assessment of our ties,” Modi wrote on X, adding that India and the United States shared a “very positive and forward-looking comprehensive and global strategic partnership”.
Earlier, Trump told reporters that he “will always be friends with Modi”.
“India and the United States have a special relationship. There is nothing to worry about,” Trump said, downplaying his earlier remarks about “losing India” to China.

The 26-year-old singer, who received the trophy for her Short n’ Sweet album, delivered a heartfelt speech while accepting the award.
Calling herself the “luckiest girl” in the world, Sabrina said, “Hello. Oh my goodness. There’s so many people here.”
“Well, thank you VMAs for this. This is my second moon man, which feels so crazy,” she continued. “I really don’t take for granted when you guys take the time out of your lives to listen to an album and if I’m lucky enough that that is my album.”
“Whether that be Short n’ Sweet, this album, or whether that be Man’s Best Friend, my new album, or whether it be one of my 29 before that,” quipped the beautiful songstress.
The Expresso hitmaker further said, “I’m just the luckiest girl in the world, and I do want to say to my incredible cast and dancers and my queens on stage. And my queens on stage with me tonight.”
Addressing how often the world can be “full of criticism” for her work, the Please Please Please songstress said, “This world, as we all know, can be so full of criticism and discrimination and negativity.”
“So to get to be a part of something so often, more than not, that is something that can bring you light, make you smile, make you dance and make you feel like the world is your f—— oyster, I am so grateful, so grateful to do that,” she added.
“So thanks, everyone here. But most importantly, my fans are just, you’ve been there for me. So thank you. And the last thing I’ll say is every artist here tonight that is nominated, that’s performing, that is just standing here looking amazing, you all mean so much to me and have inspired me so much,” said Sabrina.
Concluding the speech, the musician said, “So thanks for letting me be in this room with you. I love you all very much.”

Yungblud gets high praise from his girlfriend Jesse Jo Stark.
In a recent chat with People on the red carpet at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards the 34-year-old actress praised the Zombie singer, sharing he is her pick for “PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive.”

King Charles is worried Prince Harry can ‘sabotage’ everything

King Charles understands a lot is at stake as he prepares to meet Prince Harry.
His Majesty, who is set to meet his estranged son in September, knows the set up requires a lot from him on an emotional level.
Royal biographer Tom Bower reveals: “Harry has a huge mountain to overcome.”
He adds: “On a human basis, he used to get on very well with Charles, so particularly from Harry’s perspective, he needs reconciliation. But time is not on their side.”
“There would be huge levels of emotion involved if they meet. Whatever Charles is facing, he would much prefer to have a good relationship with his son, so I’m sure he wants reconciliation. But he must bear in mind that he’s dealing with someone who could sabotage everything and embarrass him enormously.”
“The fear with the court case was that Harry could invent something the King said about the case — and it would cause a constitutional crisis,” Tom claims. “That fear has prevented any meeting until now, but even now the case is over, the fear still remains.”
