The United States on Saturday said it was working hard to get back to work with Pakistan. “This relationship is complicated. But it’s also essential to both the United States and Pakistan. We are working very hard to keep open channels and to get back to work together,” State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland told reporters. The US officials have been in constant contact with their counterparts in Pakistan, the latest being the meeting between the US ambassador to Pakistan, Cameron Munter with Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar.“We are continuing our intensive engagement. Obviously we are both trying to roll up our sleeves and get back to work together,” Nuland said. She said there was no reason to believe that the Dubai visit of President Asif Ali Zardari had anything to do with other than his health issue.
Sure they are. That is why General Dempsey said all those loving words about Pakistan yesterday.
Will someone in this spineless government, please stand up for the nation they never tire of telling us they lead by democratic mandate?
US has made repeated mistakes in its relationship with Pakistan and there still quite evidently a clear lack of understanding how this relationship will progress.
The decisions by US policy makers have led a very complaint Pakistan to stand up to US. This alone is a testimony to the failure of US policies in this region and perhaps in other parts of the world.
Unless US policy planners do a major rethink of their policies it does not look good for the US.
