The Army Chief was also given a detailed demonstration of new military technologies, including Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which are being developed for future military operations.

The visit comes shortly after General Munir’s participation in the 7th Regional Stability Conference held at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in the UK, where he further engaged in discussions about global military strategy and stability.

Few days ago, the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Asim Munir arrived in the United Kingdom for an official visit to attend the 7th Regional Stabilisation Conference at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst.

The conference, a key platform for Pakistan-UK military dialogue, brings together senior policymakers, military officials, and experts from both countries to discuss regional security dynamics.

The army chief will deliver a keynote address on “The Emerging World Order and Pakistan’s Future Outlook”, outlining Islamabad’s perspective on evolving global and regional challenges.

Upon arrival, the army chief received a ceremonial Guard of Honour at the historic Royal Horse Guards Parade Ground, underscoring the importance of Pakistan-UK defence ties.

During his visit, the army chief will hold high-level meetings with British officials, including Admiral Sir Tony Radakin, the UK’s Chief of Defence Staff, and General Sir Roland Walker, the British Army’s Chief of the General Staff. Discussions will cover strategic cooperation, counterterrorism efforts, and regional security.

The army chief will also meet UK National Security Adviser Jonathan Powell and Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, focusing on bilateral security cooperation and shared challenges.

Pakistan and the UK share a long-standing defence relationship, with joint counterterrorism training, military exchanges, and strategic dialogues playing a key role in bilateral ties.

As part of his visit, the army chief will tour British military units, including the Land Warfare Centre and the 1st Strike Brigade, where he will receive briefings on the UK’s military modernisation efforts.
