Pakistan does not have crude oil for itself, then why are Trump calling it ‘huge oil reserves’ … what will be the effect on the trade deal

Donald Trump and Shahbaz Sharif

US President Donald Trump is currently engaged in signing the deal to countries around the world on its own terms. In the same sequence, he also did a trade deal with Pakistan, informing him on social media, Trump said that we have made a deal to develop the huge oil reserves of Pakistan, after which the discussion started from where the oil reserves came to Pakistan. He himself imports 80 percent oil. Let us understand why Trump said that what is its connection with India?

Posting on social media platform Truth social, US President Donald Trump said that we have dealt with Pakistan and are currently looking for a company to further increase the huge oil reserves there. Which will lead our deal. Pakistan probably started selling oil to India in the coming days. Trump’s statement does not have relevance. Pakistan can never even think about importing India oil.

Oil is not for yourself, how ‘huge oil reserves’

The relationship between America and Pakistan is quite old. America has always supported Pakistan. At this time, he is climbing the neighboring country. The claims made by the US President are actually very light. Because Pakistan itself imports 80 to 85 percent oil of its need. The more ‘oil reserves’ of it here can remove only 10-15 percent of their need from the well. According to reports, Pakistan’s oil production has also fallen by 11 percent in a few months.

According to an estimate of the Central Intelligence Agency, Pakistan has a total of 33.2 crore barrels of oil. Which is just 0.021 percent of the world’s oil reserves. There is oil and gas in Pakistan right now. She cannot fulfill their needs. In such a situation, Trump’s calling him of the huge oil reserves seems to be just a political statement.

Why did Trump say the reserves of oil to Pakistan?

If we look at the recent statements of US President Donald Trump, there is no clearness in him. He has been seen changing his decision many times. Their strategy has been more to get a deal by threatening. Trump may plan to put pressure on India behind claiming to make Pakistan an oil exporting country in the coming days. Because America has not yet been dealing with India. By becoming an ally with Pakistan, he is trying to put a psychological pressure of the deal on India. As can be clearly understood by looking at the rest of their trade deals.
