Trump meets Pakistan PM Shehbaz: what reporters say
Multiple outlets and local TV posts report that Pakistan’s prime minister, Shehbaz Sharif, joined a small group of Muslim leaders meeting U.S. President Donald Trump during United Nations General Assembly events in New York. These items appear in local Pakistani coverage and social clips; major global wires are still updating.
When and where did this happen?
Reporters say the meeting took place on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly week in New York. Video clips from local news channels show short handshakes and brief talks. There is no long public statement yet from either side that spells out a full agenda.
Why this matters
If true, a direct talk between the U.S. president and Pakistan’s prime minister can help with big issues like regional security, aid and trade. But for now — reporters call it a brief / select meeting, not a full bilateral summit.

Sources & what I checked: I read local Pakistani coverage and watched short TV clips and social posts (Geo/TV clips and local outlets), and I checked international wire updates for confirmation. I will update when the major wires publish a full take. YouTube
