Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir issued nuclear threats against India during a private black-tie event in Tampa, Florida, marking the first nuclear warning from Pakistani soil made on US territory. Munir declared that Pakistan, as a nuclear nation, would be prepared to use nuclear weapons in a future existential war with India, warning that if Pakistan were to go down, it would take "half the world down with us." He also threatened missile strikes on Indian infrastructure, including targeting Mukesh Ambani’s Jamnagar refinery and Indian dams, amid escalating tensions over water disputes and the Indus Waters Treaty. These remarks have sparked widespread condemnation from Indian political leaders across parties, including Congress MPs Sukhdeo Bhagat, Pramod Tiwari, Karti Chidambaram, and BJP leaders Hemang Joshi and Mithun Chakraborty. India’s Ministry of External Affairs described the statements as "nuclear sabre-rattling" and irresponsible, emphasizing that India knows its strength and will not yield to nuclear blackmail. Former Pentagon official Michael Rubin called the threats unacceptable and urged the US to reconsider Pakistan’s non-NATO ally status. The Indian government has called on the US to address how such statements could be made on American soil. Pakistani opposition leader Bilawal Bhutto also escalated tensions by threatening war over the Indus Waters Treaty, vowing to reclaim all six rivers if India continues suspending the treaty. The international community has been urged to recognize the irresponsibility of Pakistan’s nuclear rhetoric, with analysts noting the context of recent cross-border hostilities and Indian strikes on Pakistani airfields. The controversy has raised questions about Pakistan's strategic behavior and the implications for regional stability.
