The then US President Bill Clinton was furious on Pakistan during Kargil’s tight.
Pakistan was badly beaten up in the Kargil war on both diplomacy and military fronts. Recently, America’s attitude towards Pakistan during Operation Sindoor has been very soft and sympathetic, but the Kargil crisis was the opposite situation. The then US President Bill Clinton was furious with Pakistan. Nawaz was treated very hard to Sharif.
The offer of Sharif to meet alone was turned down and Clinton had even said that I had already told you that if you do not remove your soldiers unconditionally, there is no need to come here. At that time, G8 countries supported India at the Cologne Summit. The European Union and ASEAN organization also justified India’s efforts to protect the integrity of the Line of Control.

After the initial Ghapat, India’s forces had twisted the Kargil war in their favor. Pakistan now needed American help for the ceasefire. On the other hand, the then President of America was very upset with the attitude of Pakistan. Atal Bihari Vajpayee had traveled to Lahore to stop the hostility between India and Pakistan for decades.
The process of bilateral conversation to smelle on relationships started. But Pakistan was fasting friendship with India in front and stabbing the back. By crossing the Line of Control, Pakistan had dismissed Aman’s Indian efforts.
Clinton was very angry with Pakistan
In 2025, after India’s highly successful “Operation Sindoor”, US President Trump is seen bowing in favor of Pakistan. But during the Kargil War in 1999, the then US President Bill Clinton was badly raging on Pakistan. Nawaz Sharif and Clinton met on 4 July 1999. Clinton agreed hard to meet. Sharif wanted to have a different conversation with them. But Clinton’s attitude was strict. It is not possible that it is not possible. During this meeting, Clinton’s staff was taking notes of conversation.
Clinton told Sharif that he wanted this conversation to be on record. Clinton’s attitude had blown Sharif’s senses. Due to this attitude of America towards Pakistan, the process of improvement in relations between India and America started, which had further converted into strategic partnership.

First remove the army and then come to America
Sharif had to be very humiliated during the conversation. He was badly furious “Clenton reminded him,” I already told you that if you do not want to remove your soldiers unconditionally, do not come here. ” Clinton’s next sentence was a direct warning to Pakistan.
War of war with India was proving to be a loss deal for Pakistan. The only way to escape was a ceasefire. But no country was willing to put hands on Pakistan. Pakistan was finding itself alone. His closest friend China was giving a very balanced response. China’s emphasis was on calling the army back in a struggle and resolving border issues peacefully on the Line of Control.
India got support of many countries
The conditions on the diplomatic front during the Kargil War were quite favorable to India. The G-8 countries supported India’s stance at the Cologne conference. The organization also condemned Pakistan for violating the Line of Control. The European Union also criticized Pakistan for violation of the Line of Control. India also received support from the ASEAN Regional Forum. Amid the moving Indian troops and strong international pressure, Pakistan had no other way to take back. Indian troops had already chased Pakistan far behind.
Then Sharif agreed to recall his soldiers within the Indian borders. The joint statement of Clinton and Sharif emphasized the need to resume bilateral talks to honor the Line of Control and resolve all disputes. At the time when Sharif was talking to Clinton, the news of India’s possession of Tiger Hill was flashing.

Business involved in Pakistan’s nature
Dagabaji has been involved in Pakistan’s nature. On the one hand, Bajpai and Sharif were hugging the Bagha border and on the other hand Pakistani army personnel were moving in India’s border by capturing Kargil peaks in Ladakh. India came to know about Pakistani infiltration on 6 May 1999. On 26 May, Indian forces became increasingly active to chase the intruders under Operation Vijay.
Despite the pressure of Clinton, Pakistan was not ready to retreat from India’s occupation of India. But by mid -June, India’s troops had dominated Pakistan. During this time, the firepower of the Indian Air Force had encouraged Pakistan. It was a difficult campaign for the Air Force but its attacks were very accurate. She could prove to be more effective but her biggest problem was to target without crossing the Line of Control.
Pakistan had to kneel after the Kargil war that lasted in the fourteen days. With the help of American help, he tried to hide his face from the embarrassment of defeat. In fact, Pakistan was defeated on every front in the Kargil war.
