US will not pay Pakistan for military reimbursements: Pentagon

[wiseone2]

bro what is $50 million dollars infront of $60 billion investment from Beijing.

US blocked this 50 million to keep Ghanis and Modis government happy. What difference is $50 million going to make to pakistan


drone strikes are old news, 1 or 2 a year keeps us happy and them.

But when we block the nato supply route even for 2 weeks it hits them hard in their bases in Afghanistan.

50 million made all the difference in the purchase of 8 F-16s

like i said you indians getting wet dreams over $50 million is really small time.

China is in town throwing billions on projects, Americans have become as irrelevant as ever to Pakistan. if the yanks, Afghans and indians think that withholding 50 million will make pakistan go after the haqqani network then you guys have another thing coming

In the mean while enjoy the supply line blockade.

what do you mean you wish ? Like we dont cut off the supply lines on an annual basis.

do your research, Pakistan has cut off nato supply line numerous times in the last 10 years and the Americans couldn't do jack shit about it other then throw a tantrum and then come back to their senses.

We arent India we dont get bullied easily by the super powers, we go about securing our interests they way we want to, just asks the might soviet union what happened to it in the 70's.

$60 billion investment was in 2016.
this year there has been another 10-20 billion added
and that cycle will continue

the initial 60 billion investment by chinese was just drop of the ocean. Look at their mighty economy, they are a real super power and will continue with more investment yearly.

Did you say $60 billion in 2016 alone? Hahaha....its the entire budget of CPEC which would take at least a decade and the budget is around $50 billion.

The chinese are not investing in pakistan they are giving you a loan at the very high interest, they are called as loan sharks.

$55 billion investment on projects in 2016
$15-20 billion investment in 2017 alone for new projects

the cycle will continue each year with the new investment. its basic business mate if you can't comprehend

The chinese foreign office has said countless time that this initial investment in CPEC is just for the industrialisation stage of pakistan, the next stage will attract even more billions.

a very good decision by americans.we as a citizen of pakistan wants pakistan to stay away from america.we have done too much.we lost lives we lost lots of people.at the end of day,it's american war and not pakistani war.america must resolve all issues in afghanistan by itself.we don't want more confrontations.afghan talibans will regain control of afghanistan in near future.there is no future of american back government in afghanistan.hostile proxies continue to hurt us from afghanistan.we must not help americans.let them fight with afghan talibans.they are not tough guys.they can only bomb talibans just like they bombed entire afghanistan before.they wanted someone to fight their war and our useless policy allowed ourselves to be trapped in this conflict.we must stay away from any american back government or american led conflict.there are people who argue that we received lots of dollars for this war.yes we recieved but at the end of the day, we lost soldiers in this war and now there isn't enough money.americans trapped our army in different conflicts within our own soil and now not giving money.americans only see their interest.they don't care about pakistan anymore.indian presence is now getting stronger.pakistan should focus on it's relation with russia and china.russia is the only country in the world who don't care about americans.we must make our relations stronger with russians.we must punish americans on borders.the thing is if they love india so much,why not asking IA to start operation inside afghanistan? do whatever you like americans.

Pentagon blocks $50m Pakistan military payments
AFPJuly 21, 2017


The US Defense Department withheld $50 million in Pakistan military payments after Pentagon chief Jim Mattis accused Islamabad of not doing enough to counter the Taliban-affiliated Haqqani network, an official said Friday.

“Secretary Mattis told congressional defense committees that he was not able to certify that Pakistan took sufficient actions against the Haqqani network to permit full reimbursement of the fiscal year 2016 Coalition Support Funds,” Pentagon Spokesman Adam Stump said.

The United States had allotted $900mn in military aid to Pakistan through the special fund. The country has already received $550mn of that, but Mattis's decision means $50mn will be withheld. The remaining $300mn was rescinded by Congress as part of a broader appropriations act.

“This decision does not reduce the significance of the sacrifices that the Pakistani military has undertaken over previous years,” Stump said. “Pakistan still has time to take action against the Haqqani network in order to influence the secretary's certification decision in FY17,” he added.

Led by Sirajuddin Haqqani, who is also the Taliban's deputy leader, the group has carried out numerous operations deep in the heart of Kabul, and have been blamed by Afghanistan for a devastating truck bombing that killed more than 150 people in the capital in May.

LOL keep the change Yanks.

These Yanks are doing ordinary Pakistanis an incredible favor. Something we couldn't achieve ourselves. Keep going Yanks. Doing a fantastic job!

We are out of Yankee wars. We are focused on building massive relations with China. We ain't got no time for Yankee sobbing.

Though am not from Pakistan, but then also I know entire budget for cpec is 45-50$bn, spread over decades, so it's better u cross check your sources,or someone else on this matter can bring up the facts here.
