It is economic aid. Look at the military aid portion. Add them up.
In any case Pakistan (which is 1/7 of India's size) has been recipient of assistance from USA. Pakistan has gotten 90% in dollars of what India has received. This is not including the CSF payments received by Pakistan.
Plot US aid to India over time. Most of the aid was in the 1960s and 1974
FYI I am not complaining. Foreign aid is a double edged sword.
CSF(coalition support fund) is not considered and measured as aid...this is what Pakistan gets as services in providing logistics, NATO supplies, earlier air bases, and host of other services. That cannot be considered as aid.
Also that is a paltry 550 million plus/minus over the years, per year funding. The point is contrary to the perception the aid or CSF is a very small part of Pakistan yearly 41 billion USD budget, and Pakistan GDP nominal of 313 billion USD nominal, less than 0.25% of Pak GDP....
