Pakistan is no longer a strategic partner of the United States. With the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan , the political relevance of Pakistan to the U.S. is significantly diminished. Pakistan continues to harbor Islamic terrorists who would bring death to India, an important strategic partner of the U.S.
This concern bears renewed attention because Pakistan is facing an economic catastrophe. Its economy is collapsing because of political failures, including poor governance and corruption, causing high inflation, a rapidly depreciating currency, and soaring imports of food and energy. Islamabad's foreign currency reserves, necessary to import essential commodities such as food and oil, are plummeting.
It bears noting that Pakistan has chosen to align itself with China, an enemy of the United States. Indeed, Pakistan might as well be a Chinese colony when it comes to international relations. It is in the clear interest of the U.S. to embrace India as a strategic partner and to step back from bailing out Pakistan. China and India are adversaries. India is rising economically. China is falling economically.

I never thought they were in the first place.
It’s Pockeestahn, per Chairman Maobama.
The US should also not help israel, the UN, nato or any other country either.
That’s right. Pakistan has NEVER been America’s friend.
The money they skimmed from the Afghan war was apparently the main thing propping up their economy.
