After the Trump’s controversial tweet whatever is happening in the regionUnited States, India and Afghanistan are responsible for that. All theseelements have been trying to squeeze and pressurize Pakistan by all means.United States threats to cut off aid and urged Islamabad to Do More arepart of these efforts.
Pakistan so far is expressing extreme patience against these tactics whichis right gesture.
The time has come that Pakistan should revise its foreign policies andlook for new alliances with Russia, Iran, Turkey and China.
United States is supporting India to counter China but it will destabilizethe balance of power in the region. The stability of the South Asian regionhangs in a delicate balance. As the Taliban grow stronger in Afghanistan,America has started to shift the blame for its failures in the country ontoPakistan.
Dr Ghulam Mustafa (IR Expert) has said Pakistani forces have almosteliminated terrorism from its soil to a number of operations againstmilitants. Now the terrorists have been united in Afghanistan and have safehavens there. Many countries have lauded Pakistan’s steps and its seriouscontribution toward global peace.
It is pertinent to note that the United States has put forward a motion toplace Pakistan on a global terrorist-financing watch list just to pleaseIndia. The puppet government of Kabul is under the influence of New Delhiand Washington. Without having dialogues with Taliban, peace and stabilityin Afghanistan is not possible.
Dr Amna Mehmood (IR Expert) says A new paradigm in Pakistan’s foreignpolicy is emerging that demands the relations with the United States willbe driven by Pakistan’s interests. India has a specific mind-set and wantsto get regional hegemony in the region.
Despite of certain offers made from Pakistan for resolving outstandingissues through dialogue, India still considers Pakistan as the onlychallenge for its hegemonies designs. U.S.-Pakistan relations have sufferednumerous blows; relations with Russia and China are becoming increasinglyclose.
The main focus should be that Pakistan should put its house in order.Pakistan has fought the war against terrorism largely from its ownresources. Through a series of major counter-terrorism operations Pakistancleared all these areas resulting in elimination of organized terroristpresence leading to significant improvement in security in Pakistan.
