America Passions in Pakistan
History of the Pak-US interaction shows that the latter has at all periods used the former for its covetous interests, and when satisfied, left the former in the dark. This is the connection that both associates have continual, sometimes gladly, other periods not so gladly.
From Pakistan's conflicts with India to Communist entry into Afghanistan, from getting of Kashmir to dismemberment of Eastern Pakistan, from disintegration of USSR to destruction of 9/11, from Pakistan's atomic assessments in 1998 to America's atomic cope with India and in the publish 9/11 €India-supportive' situation in the area and beyond against Pakistan, From Iran-Pakistan gas direction to TAPI, from Soft silk Path to Gwadar, from financial hardship to governmental predicament, from relaxing Pakistan to battle against extremism and terrorism, from CSF to USAID, the US has always adversely utilized and browbeaten Pakistan.
United States has a wide range of interests in Pakistan all levels i.e. short, mid and long lasting. Generally discussing, these can be separated into geostrategic interests and the protracted War on Worry. Among geostrategic Passions, the US has serious bookings due to Pakistan's tendency towards European federation, Chinese suppliers and the SCO. America management doesn't like better Pakistan-Russia connections. Pakistan and Chinese suppliers have time-tested interaction but the US would only keep it if America is designed and interests are not put at share. America would do anything to combat Pakistan's becoming a participant of SCO as complete participant.
America has been pushing Pakistan continuously to avoid IP direction as it wants the nation to go for TAPI venture. Through this, the US wants to accomplish a double advantage. On one hand, it wants to cause more harm to already involve Iran-through after atomic non-proliferation cope, the US has no legal reasons to keep its conventional bitterness with Iran-while on the order, it plans to move only help India increase against Chinese suppliers but will also seriously harm European interests in the Region.
The US wants the finishing TAP venture at all costs, and the first. It doesn't care if the road of TAPI is dangerous and goes from the vulnerable places. It is deceased against Pak-China business area though Soft silk Path as it may make other local abilities efficient ergo highly effective. The functions at the Gwadar Slot, one of the world's inner seaports, are still in the doldrums; despite the fact that completely performing of this harbor can change the destiny of Pakistan. The Indo-US controlling or war in this area has been efficiently countered by Pakistan and Chinese suppliers but it has destroyed the local stability and serenity. The appearance of Chinese suppliers against the ambitions and styles of USA around the world, and especially in this area, has modified the circumstance.
The US has been chanting €do more€ concept of Pakistan. It is actually the covering of an extensive package of America interests and benefits. By endless requirement to €do more', the US wants Pakistan to go on with the functions in its tribe places. Other circumstances include secret authorization to release drone strikes, and a complete fledge, unconditional collaboration in the war against horror. The upcoming US drawback from Afghanistan is difficult without Pakistan's assistance. At present, the US has no option but to back up Pakistan because it is completely caught in the problem of war against horror and the suggested drawback.
Pakistan has authentic, powerful and logical issues against America. First of all, America has made municipal atomic cope with India at some point when Pakistan is experiencing acuter water and energy downturn. It is also pressurizing Pakistan to go for TAP instead of IP despite understanding that IP gas direction is more possible, more secure, and more result focused. The US knows that Pakistan and India are archrivals - Kashmir problem is still un-resolved due to India resistance and hypocrisy of world abilities but America's unconditional assistance to India is really doubtful with America assistance, India has designed up its existence in Afghanistan thus making Pakistan's European boundary risky. America antagonism towards Gwadar port and Pak-China business area is another problem of issue for Pakistan.
One factor is magnificent that America cannot manage a destabilized Pakistan because if it happens, the extremists and militants would take over the whole area and this is completely against the America imperial styles. War on terror-which actually is war for terror-has now unfortunately become an anathema for Pakistan.
It is here we are at America to do more for Pakistan because it needs Pakistan more than Pakistan needs the US Pakistan should with understanding recognize its position and significance without any fear and becoming marionette and satellite TV, and act accordingly.
