Is America undermining Pakistan’s importance as an ally?

[Etilla]

Pakistan seems to be overestimating its value as a MNNA and thus feels undermined at the end of the day when America treats it for what it is and not what it thinks it is.

we have huge wish list ... but the geographic situation is not going in favor of Pakistan ...
i can never believe that USA will stop Funding bLA and TTP to give time for Pakistan to stabilize its economy ...and now as indias are coming closer to uncle sam , now i am expecting some more intense fight or proxies in future ... may God forbid and protect our country ...
but now its time for us to be independent , dont rely on USA , KSA or any other country ...

Don't rely on any country. Have relations with everyone for national interest.

 

[Varunastra]

Pakistan is the antonym of importance

Iran won't go hegemonic on Pakistan. We are too big, too powerful and too unpredictable for them to handle. India has failed to establish hegemony on, Pakistan for 7 decades, what makes you think, Iran can, especially when their future prosparity depends on us.

Pakistan needs to follow its interests, support Arabs and Iranians accordingto our own strategic interests. Their competetion can be hanessed for the benefit of Pakistan..

Brother, Iranians do not hesitate to use the Shia card against any Muslim country. There was a time when I strongly believed Iran is in the best interests of Pakistan but look at their tiny, tiny bilateral trade with us, that alone speaks volumes.

Again, we must not forget Iranian backstabbing regarding the AQ Khan issue. Pakistani military has not forgiven them neither they trust them.

How many exercises has Pakistan held with Iran this century?

We should cooperate with Iran on even basis. If they ever try to pull Shia card in Pakistan, they'll be up against the most experianced covert operations outfit in Asia.

Most experienced covert operations outfit. Man, that sounds like a definition of success. Lets see. Did they get Kashmir? Did they get Khalistan? Did they save East Pakistan? I wonder.

we dont want to be police..
iran and india should lic uncle sam shoes..

actually it is pakistan who lickd uncle Sam shoes over 6 decades... don't forget your history. ..

 

[NP-complete]

what does pakistan get from being anyones ally. pakistan should simply do what all countries are doing. produce stuff, sell it to the world, make money, enjoy a good standard of living.

 

[farhan_9909]

Bigger Question is

With China(Very Close future superpower) now considering Pakistan as the most strategic partner,do we really even need the american alliance?

 

[SQ8]

I mentioned this earlier about an interview. While it seemed dodgy, the claims in it made sense; America's FIRST preference as an ally in the middle was/is and will be IRAN and NOT Pakistan.

@Bang Galore

A strong Iran will deal with India on pound to pound basis. Hearsay like Chahbahar won't be tolerated, which is good for Pakistan. Strong Iran, Strong Turkey, a Strong Pakistan = A powerful ECO block.

and you think Iran will change its foreign policy for the sake of Pakistan. .. Even Iran facing sanctions India and China still buying it's oil ....keeping their economy alive... just a wishful thinking from you.... Iran will benefit more from powerful India...

and than what ??
let be in situation like 1980's ? where on one side we have USSR and second our friendly loving neighborhood ?
you put out Pakistan from a mess and talking about putting their legs in another one ... donest make sense to me

Access to warmer ports via Central Asia, which by the way comes before any land route to India. Since there is going to be a power vacuum in Afghanistan, once NATO leaves, Russia along with China would want to have some say over there. It always better to have partnerships than none. Think about it, Russia a mega power, nuclear armed state has lost all it's strategic allies in the middle east. Other that who do they have? India is there economically, but not geo-strategically. India cannot offer the direct access to Middle east ports/gas pipe lines etc that Pakistan can.

i hope you see the map before talking about geo stratogical position. .. Russia vastly connected with Asia to Europe ...

Allama Iqbal Future Predictions about PAKISTAN.....

Whatever the eye is seeing cannot be described by the lips, I am lost in amazement as to what the world will become!, The night will eventually disappear by sun’s appearance! This garden will be filled with Light of Tauhid (Oneness of God)

Events(incident) as yet folded(hidden) in the scroll of time, Reflect in the mirror of my perception

Tomorrow is still hidden in intention, but its dawn is flashing before my eyes.

Plans will be reversed, destiny will be changed; this is a fact with truth, not fiction of my thought.

However the grief’s night gives the message of Eid’s morning, In the darkness of the night, the ray of hope has appeared.

By Men whose eyes see far and wide, new cities shall be founded; Not by old Kufa or Bagdad is my thought’s vision bounded (seeing new cities better than old Kufa and Baghdad times).

Your real worth is hidden, other people are yet to see whats true;The Lord of the worlds assembly has yet much need of you.; By your breath lives the world and is kept animate; You are its destined leader, you the star of fate; There is no time to relax, much still remains to be done;You have yet to fully spread the light of God, the only one.
