Pakistani broadcasters Geo TV and ARY News, cited by Reuters, report that US President Donald Trump plans to travel to Pakistan on 18 September as part of a wider South Asia tour. The visit has not yet been confirmed by either the White House or Pakistan’s Foreign Office, but would coincide with Trump’s previously announced state trip to the United Kingdom from 17–19 September. If the itinerary is finalised, Trump would be the first sitting US president to set foot in Pakistan since George W. Bush visited Islamabad in 2006. ARY News said the South Asia swing is also expected to include India. The prospective stop in Pakistan follows Trump’s claim in May that his administration brokered a cease-fire that eased recent tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbours.
