The White House has disclosed that Pakistan is developing a long-range ballistic missile capable of striking the United States, leading to the imposition of sanctions on a state-owned Pakistani entity involved in the project. This revelation marks a significant escalation in tensions between the two nations, historically close allies in South Asia. U.S. officials have expressed concerns over Pakistan’s expanding missile capabilities, including testing large rocket motors. Despite Pakistan’s foreign ministry dismissing these allegations as baseless, the U.S. is seeking diplomatic measures to prevent further advancements in Pakistan’s missile program. This development adds to the complex landscape of global nuclear threats, alongside challenges posed by countries like China, Russia, and North Korea
