US seeks funds for resuming military training for Pakistan

Improve trade relations with Pakistan, that is what we need.
We do not need randi rona.....give, take, stop, USA lost control over Pakistan and now just trying cheap mujra.

We do, cuz we don't have any military research org truly functional.

I read a report posted by a member 2 months back on PDF. It was written by a retired US Army Officer going by the name Smith. He stated often times new officers in training can’t utilize what they learned due to the structure of the military whereas a senior officer is always right and you can’t question his/her orders or plans.

More than research and training we need to change the feudal lord mind set in the military that might be holding back new ideas to flourish. Get rid of servants and other amenities given to senior officers and have them act like officers rather than landlords.

I’m saying this due to my personal experience with family members who are serving in Pak Army. These sort of officers hold back our jawans from properly retaliating because the seniors don’t want their posh life style to be at risk.

We have Think Tanks who’s job is to formulate new strategies and plans and present them to the Armed Forces to adopt, read above why we fail at times.

This is a bureaucratic thing. Many of our systems are US based; so, yes, we do need it and what's wrong in learning? Even when we train foreign nationals, the money trickles down from the MoD, which has to incur the governmental machinery. It's not like what the article poises; this is routine.

Exactly. Countries use these programs to recruit agents. It's actually a common practice.
Which is why we need another common practice telling them to **** off, Not interested, thanks but no thanks.

Americans will never do anything for the love of Pakistan. A hidden objective is definitely there.

WASHINGTON: The US State Department is seeking funds from Congress to resume its military education and training facilities for Pakistan, says a document released on Tuesday.

In its budget requests for the fiscal year 2021, the department sought a total of $104.9 million for its International Military Education and Training (IMET) programme, informing Congress that IMET “serves as an effective means to strengthen military alliances and international coalitions critical to US national security goals and regional stability”.

Out of these $104.9 million, the department is seeking $12.7 million for training military officers from the South and Central Asian region, which includes $3.5 million for resuming this facility for Pakistan.

The budget proposal notes that IMET programmes in South and Central Asia “support the Indo-Pacific Strategy by focusing on professionalising the defence forces of regional partners, emphasising professional military education, respect for the rule of law, human rights, and civilian control of the military”.

The facility includes “English language training to improve the ability of partner services to work with the United States,” the note adds.

Although the request includes the entire South and Central Asian region, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Nepal are classified as “priority recipients”.

The Trump administration approved the resumption of military education and training facilities for Pakistan in December 2019, saying that it was doing so to “improve bilateral cooperation on shared priorities”.

The State Department administers the IMET programme, which enables Pakistan and other countries to send their officers to US institutions.

A US official later pointed out that President Donald Trump’s security assistance suspension announced in January 2018 authorised “narrow exceptions for programme that support vital US national security interests”, making room to restart some programmes with Pakistan.

“The administration has approved the resumption of IMET programme for Pakistan as one such exception, subject to Congressional approval,” the official added.

Relations between the United States and Pakistan started to strain in 2011 when Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was tracked and killed in Abbottabad by US special forces without informing Islamabad.

3.5 million means at most 10-15 folks or so per year ??

The answer to every who what where is: an indeginious management system that is based on merit.

That's rubbish. Why do american come her to learn high altitude warfare
Dear, that's just one aspect of overall ecosystem of research. It's like you ask why French researchers go to Africa for research on Hyenas in wild.

Yes that's true. Actually it's like Malaria. Patient feels cold, vomits, fever, bitter taste. But actually it's the malarial parasite.
In our case, it's the carelessness of Pakistani people, and urge to oppress others.
That's why I often say, qom ko terbiat ki zaroorat hai.

Their Training is better. Our brute force is better. We won against TTP, because Talibs were with us.
