US Removes Map Showing PoK, Aksai Chin as Part of India: Why the Sudden Reversal?

• The Office of the US Trade Representative (USTR) shared a map on X depicting PoK and Aksai Chin as integral parts of India after a trade deal.
• The map, which perfectly matched India's official map, was later removed from the USTR's social media post.
• Possible reasons for removal include an accidental post, a strategic message to India, or pressure from China and Pakistan.
• The article suggests the US might not want to displease Pakistan due to interests in Balochistan's gold reserves and using Pakistan against Iran.
• India maintains that the entire Jammu and Kashmir, including PoK and Aksai Chin, are integral parts of India, and the USTR has not issued an official statement on the deletion.
