China’s Red Flag on Pakistan-US Alleged Airbase Deal Exposed

*Claim:* On June 20, 2025, a controversial article published on http://globalfinserve.com claimed that the Director of China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS) had raised a “red flag” over Pakistan’s alleged decision to allow the United States access to two key military airbases—Nur Khan Air Base near Islamabad and Jacobabad Air Base in Sindh. According to the article, this access was granted to facilitate U.S. operations in Afghanistan and Iran. The article further alleged that China, angered by this development, had threatened to suspend cooperation on the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and ongoing defense programs. The article asserted that this strategic shift was finalized during a so-called high-profile meeting between Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, and former U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House on June 18, 2025. Following publication, the article gained widespread traction on social media, especially among Indian accounts and pro-defense propaganda handles. One notable account,

@defencealerts (IDU), posted the article link with the statement: “#China’s MSS Director has raised Red Flag in China-Pakistan Relation after #Pakistan agreed for allowing #US Access to Two #Pakistani Air Bases (Nur Khan Air Base near Islamabad and Jacobabad Air Base in Sindh).” This post played a key role in amplifying the article on X and other social media platforms, where it gained 91.7K views and 3,196 likes, creating widespread confusion about Pakistan’s foreign policy direction and falsely implying a diplomatic rift between Pakistan and China. *Fact Check:* After detailed verification by our investigation team—through diplomatic sources, digital analysis, and official records—the claim has been found to be completely baseless, misleading, and factually incorrect. The key points are outlined below: 1. Lack of Authenticity The article on http://Globalfinserve.com lacks citations from any credible or official sources in Pakistan, China or the United States. No press release, statement or briefing has validated the claim that Pakistan has granted U.S. military access to its airbases. Government of Pakistan has clearly denied the existence of such an agreement. 2. Chinese Denial Diplomatic sources confirm that the Chinese Embassy in Islamabad has rejected the statement attributed to China’s MSS Director. A senior Chinese official has reportedly declared the article fake, urging readers and media outlets to disregard fabricated content that attempts to damage bilateral ties between China and Pakistan. 3. Propaganda Patterns & Indian Amplification Digital analysis shows that approximately 87% of social media accounts sharing the article appear to be bots or coordinated networks—many of which have previous links to anti-Pakistan campaigns operated from Indian digital spheres. The quick viral spread, identical phrasing, and lack of critical verification suggest a deliberate attempt to propagate disinformation. 4. Factual Inaccuracies Regarding Munir-Trump Meeting: In the interaction between Pakistan’s Army Chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, and former U.S. President Donald Trump, no such deal regarding U.S. access to Pakistani airbases was made. Instead, the conversation focused on positive diplomatic engagement, where Trump praised Pakistan’s role in de-escalating tensions with India and emphasized the importance of enhancing bilateral trade cooperation *Conclusion:* Based on the verified facts presented above, it is clear that the claim regarding China’s MSS Director raising a red flag over Pakistan allegedly granting the U.S. access to Nur Khan and Jacobabad airbases is completely baseless, misleading and part of a deliberate disinformation campaign. The narrative, unsupported by any official confirmation from Pakistan, China, or the United States, was amplified primarily through Indian-linked digital networks using inauthentic accounts. 1/2
