US Map Shows PoK, Aksai Chin as Indian Territory; Pakistan's Diplomatic Shock

• The United States Trade Representative (USTR) office posted a map showing Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Aksai Chin as integral parts of India.
• This map aligns with India's official representation, signaling strong US support for India's sovereignty and a diplomatic blow to Pakistan.
• The move is seen as a strategic gesture by the US to favor India, especially after an interim trade deal, contrasting with past stances.
• Despite a ban in Pakistani theaters, the Bollywood film "Dhurandhar" is number one on OTT in Pakistan, reflecting public interest in India and anti-terrorism sentiment.
• Pakistan, heavily reliant on US aid, is unlikely to object to the map, while India prioritizes development over immediate PoK integration.
