Claim
Pakistan is the only country in the world to have signed, as a nation-state, a formal crypto-business agreement with a Trump family company.
“पाकिस्तान दुनिया का इकलौता ऐसा देश है जिसने एक राष्ट्र के तौर पर ट्रंप परिवार की कंपनी के साथ क्रिप्टो बिजनेस के लिए एक औपचारिक समझौता किया।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
Pakistan did formally sign, at government level, agreements with Trump-family-owned World Liberty Financial: an April 2025 Letter of Intent via the Pakistan Crypto Council and a January 2026 MoU between Pakistan's Ministry of Finance and a WLF affiliate for the USD1 stablecoin. As of the 2026-07-02 broadcast, no other country is reported to have signed a comparable nation-state agreement with a Trump family company — the UAE's MGX deal was a commercial investment by a state-backed fund, and Kyrgyzstan's engagement produced no reported signed agreement — so the 'only country' superlative is consistent with available evidence. Confidence is moderate rather than high because wire reporting hedges with 'one of the first' tie-ups with a sovereign state, and no Indian fact-checker (AltNews, BOOM, Factly, Newschecker, PIB) has directly examined the 'only country' claim.
