The public sentiment is predominantly negative, with significant skepticism towards Trump's assertions about US-Pakistan oil relations. Many comments criticize perceived hypocrisy in US foreign policy and express concern over geopolitical implications for India, reflecting a sense of frustration and distrust regarding US intentions.

United States

Pakistan

India

Just like he informed India that he stopped the war between India and Pakistan, he should also inform Pakistan about this oil.

curiousstrider

Any time Trump uses bigly words like "massive", I immediately know it's probably full of shit. And it turns out Pakistan has such "massive" oil reserve that it puts them ... 52nd on global chart !

Even worse, the amount isn't even enough for Pakistan to use for more than 2 years if the country doesn't import any oil, let alone exporting to India !

[https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/pakistan-meagre-oil-reserves-dont-match-us-president-donald-trump-massive-claim-data-shows-8991005](https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/pakistan-meagre-oil-reserves-dont-match-us-president-donald-trump-massive-claim-data-shows-8991005)

Does anyone around Trump have any grasp on anything anymore ?

ImperiumRome

U.S. President Donald Trump has announced sealing a trade deal with Pakistan and said that Washington will work with Islamabad to develop what he described as the South Asian nation’s “massive oil reserves”.

\[..\]

“We have just concluded a deal with the country of Pakistan, whereby Pakistan and the United States will work together on developing their massive oil reserves,” Mr. Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Wednesday (July 30, 2025).

“We are in the process of choosing the oil company that will lead this partnership. Who knows, maybe they’ll be selling oil to India some day!” he added.

girlikeapearl_

Where is this oil? Pakistan is deep in debt, surviving on IMF bailouts for decades, why haven't they used this oil to improve their economy?

disc_jockey77

Pakistan has lots of oil? Ohh wait it doesnt, anything just anything to distract from the episteen tapes, and make it go away.

Psychological-Flow55

This just seems like the most stupid way of indirectly funding Pakistani military rule. India should prepare to fight a Pakistan backed by both China and US. It's time for India to significantly increase military production and procurement from actual friends like Israel and France, and increase the stockpile of tactical nuclear weapons. And if there are no improvement in independent 'military' and 'strategic' relationships with US-colonies like EU, Canada and Japan, India should also start diluting the no first strike policy similar to China.

This must be a surprise to Pak as well.   
Unless they have conned Trump with one of their periodic announcements about discovering a zillion tonnes of whatever.

Dean_46

Please understand the concept, US supports Indian military to confront China. Then supports Pak to keep India in check.. Then funds Taliban to keep Pak in control. 

This is plain geo politics. Also the said oil reserves are in deep sea and even to do a proper exploration to get the length and breadth of the oil field, you would need like 4-5 billion USD. No major oil company will take the risk because of the unstable political situation in Pak.

lonelytunes09

If Pakistan had oil reserves large and viable enough to sell to India they'd be getting some democracy right now.

Exclusively delivered by Uncle Sam and Dolund Trump.

Aromatic-Chemical968

Pakistan has massive oil reserves ?
 Where ? In kitchen ?

We should not be. These are trump tactics to put pressure on India to sign the deal. 
Even pakistani will be surprised with this statement. What oil reserves is he talking about..

While I am not actually Indian, I think I have something to say here.  I'm American and don't truly understand circumstances in India, but I have a great many friends from India and a deep love of them and the cultures and that's why I'm here. I also speak a South Asian language(granted it's nepali so not from India) and plan on learning another someday. I hope I'm not too out of touch.

I see enormous potential in India, even with all these issues.  Fundamentally, the majority of the issues you talked about are true in the United States as well to a very large extent.  India is not as unique in this as it seems, although I agree that the amount of things to change is more.  I have seen so much good in the rising generation.  I think it's time that we realize, whatever country we are in, be it India for you or America for me, that it is time for the rising generation to, well, rise up.  We have more potential for education than ever before with the internet and information age and we grew up in it.  Our nation's will be ours in time, as older generations age, and we need to step up, realizing that it will be hard, and there will be tragedies and mistakes made and not every change that needs to happen will fully, but that we can make a huge difference still.  We can learn our cultures so they are not lost to westernization(prevalent to me as well actually, I'm not culturally very American) and we can learn to see each other as good and brothers and sisters first and look for unity instead of division.  We must avoid becoming apathetic and distracted and divided, all easier in the information age than ever before.

The United States has had very little, if any, real positive growth or societal change beyond the development of new technology within my lifetime.  I'm only 21, but the truth is, in my country our economy, our relations with our neighbors, our government, our outlooks as potential homeowners and professionals and college students were far, far brighter than they are now. At least looking from the outside, I feel like it's the opposite in India, that there has been real significant standard of living change and societal change in the past twenty years.

I have tremendous hope in India.  Yes there's problems with BJP being stupid and corrupt and functioning as a one party system almost.  Yes there's huge brain drain to other nations(in America it's private companies that have no real positive influence on society). Yes people fight over languages and traditions and religion, all while it silently falls away to westernization little tiny bit by little tiny bit. Yes there is rampant and horrible prevalence of sexual assault on women and child abuse in the home.  These are ALL issues that we the people can address. While it's possible I have a biased sample size, I think serious progress on these issues will be made simply by people getting older and the torch passing gradually to younger people.  I think we need to look forward with hope though and not despair and consciously work.

Econonically I have always felt like India is fairly close to exploding.  India has incredible potential economically.  Between population and economy, India should be just as capable of becoming a world power as China.  And here's the thing, with China it took many decades and they went through horrible things like the Chinese Civil wars and cultural revolution.  India doesn't have to do that and doesn't have to be held back by things like that.  And, with even more people, I believe in all the economist's projections that project that India's economic growth will oupace and surpass that of China.

I think a globally powerful India will be good for the world. I think we need to realize, that in our respective countries, when that time comes it will likely be young people now who are leading the countries.  We need to step up and get working.  We will overcome.

Trump is the problem and i will keep asking what the government is doing 

L_LawLeit24

He just wants to tap into the indian market, sell his F-35s, sell his oil, he kept saying he has lot of oil.. india will ride his term out. If BJP had balls then they should stop the flow of tech workers, the elite ones (not the IT coolies from TCS,infosys and wipro, BTW i am also an IT coolie, but in my own country lol) into their country, the toppers of IITs and other colleges. He's particularly salty because he made this whole bit about how he's friends with everyone, now no-ones listening to him, he thought he  would come out of this as a great negotiator and stop ukraine-russia war, that didnt happen, whats the next best thing, india-pakistan.

India is probably only nation in world which has only enemies as neighbours 

Biggest mistake india did was not figuring out how to make china a strategic ally while balancing border issues

Less-Cat6399

Trump is a business man. This will be his last term as a president. Let him say whatever he wants. 

He is scared of the partnership we have with Russia. Let him be. 

And if pakistan stops supporting terrorism and resolves the issue of Kashmir, maybe we will buy oil from them. It will be cheaper than the Middle East. 

Now I know why Britishers left us divided. Original Bharat had its own oil reserves too.

smashedpotato9999

Did Pak find new oil fields somewhere? It could be possible that Pak announced in secrecy to US and he blurted it out. 

Or the most simple explanation is Pak is lying. But since most oil exploration companies atleast the ones operating in Pak are US based, it’s unlikely.

neurotoxics

Yours is a very well written post. In a sea of inequality when we have only communist dictators and capitalist dictators as role models, it becomes an unfair fight. In the coming months, as always, the agility of our foreign policies will be tested while the whole world attacks our cultural identity to feel better about their own.

Bad time for welfare politics it seems. I am very eager to see how EU hold on their own when their inaction come bite them back.

Reasonable-Taro-3508

You think USA wants to help pakistan find oil?
 US only thinks about itself. If there is even single ounce of oil US would not let it go. Also it take years just to locate oil fields. By that time madman trump would either be out of power or dead

Puzzled_Estimate_596

Picture this: Grandpa Trump, with his usual flourish, declares something that sounds like it came straight from a game of geopolitical Monopoly. And while we might chuckle, the OP points out the deeper, more profound truth: the actual game board is inside our house! It's not about being anti-anyone; it's about whether we're ready to clean our own room before complaining about the global mess. If our 'brightest minds' are busy optimizing their LinkedIn profiles for Silicon Valley escapes, and our biggest debates are about religious emojis, then yes, the 'war room' is indeed right here. Let's stop waiting for a siren call and start building our own fortresses of brilliance. Because frankly, the world isn't going to wait for us to finish our current 'Netflix and Chill' session.

Cute-Method-8090

Well, if Pakistan behaves(no more terror attacks and restructuring of millitary based govt to an actual democratic one), it's ok. If they don't, as we saw during Op. Sindoor, we have our means now to eradicate it. 

Not to mention, USA hasn't exactly forgotten about Taliban and 11th September, so if Pakistan does indeed somehow continue whatever they're doing even after making deal with Trump, it'll just be a matter of time before they're actually gone from the map. 

Furthermore, we can go ahead and say "You can buy from Pakistan, similarly we can buy from Russia" Russia obviously has a larger oil reserve than Pakistan, so India may push to increase trade with Russia, citing US' purchase from Pakistan as a western double standard. 

Finally knowing Trump he's prolly doing this because he thinks 

a. Pakistan will push for getting him a Nobel Peace Prize
b. It'll be easy to exploit people from Pakistan because it is a weaker nation and has more poor people, hence making it more reliant on foreign aid
c. He's just generally delusional. 

Given the above reasons, when he finds out that 

a. Pakistani population hates Trump and Israel more than anything else
b. Pakistani population doesn't really want any help to go to Israel (which ofc if USA benefits from the plant, it will go to Israel) 
c. Delusions are delusions ans don't help you. 

He'll prolly TACO his ass down. Like he has already done when talking about Ukraine, where initially he was going "Putin's my friend and he'll do as I say" But later when he realised nothing is going as he planned he completely switched gears and went full in on Ukraine's side. Trump is just generally unhinged and I  don't think he's someone we'll need to worry about long term, just these 3-4 years maybe a bit unstable but we'll be back on track improving our US relations.

Successful-Panda6362

Calm down. It's the most unserious person with the most unserious country put together. Don't expect serious results. If Pakistan gets an oil reserve huge enough for US to get interested in, China wont let it get to US for free. Result will be proxy wars and generation losses, not a sudden empire

Creation of Pakistan itself was long term strategy of UK and USA to wedge the geopolitical gap between India and erstwhile USSR.

Post World War-I, when soviet was formed in 1919 with Russia and its land empire, only Afghanistan was buffer between Indian colony of UK and USSR.

UK and USA were worried about growing impact of communism in the world and its influence on Indian leaders like Subhash Chandra Bose, Bhagat Singh, Pt. Nehru and even Mahtama Gandhi was partially aligned towards socialist communism.

The biggest worry for USA and UK was Muslim majority societies  in oil-rich Middle East are more prone to communism as Islam has innate features and mutual compatibility with communism.

Oil is energy and capitalism runs on monopolies of access to energy.

Religious fundamentalism and conservatism is antithesis to socialism and communism.

Khilafat movement of 1920's provided just that. Threat to colonial empires was turned into opportunity to counter growing influence of socialism/communism in Asia.

Specifically the resource rich region.

Regions like India and China which are mostly farming societies were left alone and UK, USA formed alliances with dictators and kings of Soudi Arabia, Iraq and even Iran.

Soviet Russia was geographically far closer to them and USA, UK didn't want Russia to have access to Oil and warm-water ports of Arabian sea and Gulf.

Hence in 1930's and 1940's British encouraged not just two-nation but multi-nation theory in colonial Indian subcontinent.

In early 1930's, they first sown seeds of partition through round-table conferences then in 1935, they separated Burma from British India to demonstrate what's possible.

British would have been very happy if India would have split into hundreds of countries and they did hope it will happen with rushed and confusing partition with India, East Pakistan,  West Paksitan and hundreds of princely states.

In Kashmir they got succeeded by manipulating newly independent India into ceasefire of 1948 war.

Pakistan was created to put geographical barrier between India and Russia so that direct links of transport and trade is impossible for both.

India has only sea access to rest of the world. All its land borders are mountainous except the northwest corridor through Khybar and Bolan pass which for millenias served as only viable land-based trade route for India.

(USA, UK were not that worried for China because China even today don't have open ocean access. East China Sea and South China sea is surrounded by islands which are allies of UK, USA. And China’s land borders are far off, remote and mountainous to have meaningful low cost trade route in modern competitive world. Hence even though silk route was hugely successful in ancient and medieval times, its modern counterpart - belt and road initiative turned out to be too costly).

India sure trying to circumvent this geographical block through north-south corridor connecting India with Russia through Iran and also recently connecting Europe through Soudi Arabia and Isreal.

However it's most natural choices like TAPI pipeline and rail-road connection with central Asia and Russia is permanently blocked with the creation of Pakistan.

Nowhere this long term "wedge" came handy for USA, UK than during 1980 invasion of Afghanistan by soviet.

USA, UK simply used Pakistan to establish religious fundamentalism in Afghans as counter towards communism.

Rest of the events after 1980 are all related with uncontrollable rise of Islamic fundamentalism and terrorism (both state sponsored and by non-state actors)

Hence it's not at all surprising that USA, UK don't want to loose Pawn named Pakistan.

Hence the frequent bail-outs, military help and interference to save Pakistan time and again from certain and inevitable collapse.

No doubt, USA/UK never shown any intent to help India in military aspects and even in defence equipment supplies even though India was largest arms importer for long time. (France always supplied Indian rulers right from 17th century as they were colonial rivals of UK and Russia supplied us to counter USA. Isreal recently began supplying India to counter middle east Islamic fundamentalism)

India just need to wait patiently to grow its stature just like China and then most cost-effective solution to fix Pakistan would be to use its own nature to create internal fissures and happily watch it implode from sidelines.

Bruv, worried is a soft word. This country’s not only dysfunctional…it’s deliberately set up to keep the average person exhausted, distracted, and in survival mode.

Peel back the religious drama, nationalism noise, and GDP headlines… and what you see is a nation that’s rotting beneath the makeup:
	1 - We rank lower than war-torn countries in happiness, healthcare, and safety
	2- Homeless kids sleep on footpaths while billionaires throw ₹700 crore weddings
      3 - Toxic air, undrinkable water, and yet, “Digital India” banners on every corner
      4 - A trillion-dollar economy, but no universal healthcare, no clean infrastructure, no functional public education
	5 -	Middle class is suffocating!!! taxed from every direction, with zero return
	6 - Banks hand out personal loans like toffees, turning 20yo into lifetime debt slaves
	7- The average person is drowning in EMIs for a bike, a phone, a hospital bill, or just survival
    8 - You don’t own your home, your car, or your peace. the bank does
	9- Youth unemployment is swept under the carpet with “startup” slogans
	10- Mental health is a meme, therapy is overpriced, and suicide gets no follow up
	11 The justice system moves slower than death, unless you’re rich
	12. Police are underpaid, undertrained, and over-politicized
      13.  Corruption isn’t a problem — it’s a protocol
	14 Religion gets billions, science gets scraps
	15 Farmers starve, tech bros glorify hustle culture, and everyone’s pretending things are okay
	16 Public transport breaks down, while ministers ride convoys through potholes

This isn’t progress. A nation drugged on distractions, kept too broke and too busy to revolt.

But in the end, Religion is what the masses care about. Which will eventually be the doom of this nation

No. Asshole that he is, is just using Pakistan as a leverage against india while active negotiations are going on.

Even though Modi and Jaishankar have fucked up india's foreign policy, India should call out Trump's bluff and walk away from tariffs negotiations. US needs access to Indian markets much more that we do theirs. Its not some zero sum game that this asshole will want us to believe.

Their trade size is pretty low. India does 20x more imports than Pakistan and 16x more exports to US. 

He is good at projecting no value deals as big wins. What is the guarantee that he will respect any of these deals. There is no credibility attached to whatever comes from his mouth.

Anything can be possible no one knows whats happening really.

Remember who gives this subsidy its hardworking 1% tax paying and esp middle class. Soon it is bound to be doomed. No check on population, language divide, religion divide, caste divide. Brainwashing in name of fake nationalism which is according to their ideology else u are anti national. Mind it I am not supporting any particular thing but this is blatant. Every year there is flood, road washing away, highway collapsing, railway issues still people with goldfish memory forgets it somehow. Government diverges people with some fake cry in name of anything religion, pok, judiciary, hindu muslim, this temple ,that murti , idol inauguration. Even now u can see SSC, UPSC issue. How will nation thrive or economy even remain steady in it, forget about thriving economy, its just on paper.

Nervous_Movie_2864

Finally the original color of U.S has came to the full lime light coz we always forget what they did in 73 and 75 war now it's time we cut our trade ties with them, if India is clever enough , it shud amend it's relation with china first starting from border. Amend ties where both can have a win win situation along with Russia, I know china has ties with Pakistan but china doesn't have anything to take from US which is their main competition, if India Russia and China along with Iran sits down and talk it out that this is the problems and this are the solution a new world order can be created but since our leaders are busy hugging and welcoming DoLund Trump and trying to play cope with the west we are losing what we have in our Asia. An enemy of my enemy is a friend, I think it's time India play that coz america sided with Pakistan show what US wants they don't want a stabilize India,a Growing India they want a india with chaos terrorist attacks and backlog of its people

Pakistan is like a pet dog and puppet willing to sell out their nation for $$ so they can fund their anti-India intentions and interests. And as for Trump, his hypocrisy is exposed - like first stopping military aid to them in 2018 for hiding the perpetrator of 9/11, and now shaking hands with the Pahalgam mastermind Asim Munir.

Trump has got to be the biggest manchild to ever become a leader of any nation! 

This is just downright pathetic and childish.

It's unfortunate for the entire world that the Americans were stupid enough to elect him, TWICE!

TheBigShitowski

If Pak had any good oil reserves, China basically had to be the first to make a move.
Also I am not sure how American companies will work there because the road to all these "So Called" strategic reserves are built and maintained by China and I don't think they will easily let Americans eat the cake they have been baking.

Spiritual-Border-178

This is next level diplomatic disaster - every major country except India and Russia was able to get a trade deal with USA. India was left with no levers to pull and people still d*ck riding our foreign minister and PM both of whom have failed spectacularly in the global stage

deathstarresisent

If pakistan has that much oil, we should buy it .what is the issue here Provided Pakistan is selling us.cost of transportation will dramatically come down and we can have a pipeline built that can transport oil from Pakistan to India.

Always trade with ur enemies and keep the line of communication open.This is what actually led to de-escalation during May war between India and Pakistan . India should keep its border tight and invest in technology to monitor vast landscape and forest areas of Jammu.. And fix accountability of James bond Aka ,Doval and military intelligence.. Discuss the shortcomings in parliament or in closed group of ministers and heads should be rolling..

Pakistani here. I think y’all need to chill:

* We have had oil discoveries every year now since last 4 years. 

* The claims of oil refineries being built and Pakistan selling it to India sounds just as unrealistic as India claiming to block water by building dams.

* Pakistan-China relations aren’t going to be broken over oil refineries. So don’t bet on that. 

* If India has good relations with China that is better for the entire region, not just India. Everyone except the US wants stability. US thrives on war. 

* Trump is literally man-baby. I wouldn’t believe shit he says on Truth Social. Also he is a pedophile.
