India tariff settlement will be announced shortly, along with Japan, UK, S Korea. It is just not tariffs. There are also a myriad of trade restrictions which takes time to negotiate. But never forget, every country on earth has charged US products substantial tariffs. Which means every on loves tariffs, except for the globalists in USA and EU.

This long history of conflict in Kashmir is worth consideration.

Pakistan is at best a pseudostate, and historically has kept up continual war on India. Each time it’s broken out bigtime, India has kicked the crap out of Pakistan.

Aka a perpetual and volatile basket case.

Whoever in the DOS who decided Pakistan should have a nuclear reactor deserves a horrible fate.

Form the Wiki Page: On 8 December 1953, Pakistan media welcomed the US Atoms for Peace initiatives, followed by the establishment of Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC) in 1956.[25] In 1953, Foreign minister Muhammad Zafarullah Khan publicly stated that "Pakistan does not have a policy towards the atom bombs".[26] Following the announcement, on 11 August 1955, the United States and Pakistan reached an understanding concerning the peaceful and industrial use of nuclear energy which also included a pool-type reactor worth $350,000.[26] Before 1971, Pakistan's nuclear development was peaceful but an effective deterrent against India, as Benazir Bhutto maintained in 1995.[24] Pakistan's nuclear energy programme was established and started in 1956 following the establishment of PAEC. Pakistan became a participant in US President Eisenhower's Atoms for Peace program. PAEC's first chairman was Dr. Nazir Ahmad.[citation needed] Although proposals to develop nuclear weapons were made in the 1960s by several officials and senior scientists, Pakistan followed a strict non-nuclear weapon policy from 1956 until 1971, as PAEC under its chairman Ishrat Hussain Usmani made no efforts to acquire nuclear fuel cycle technology for the purposes of an active nuclear weapons programme.[26]

In 1961, the PAEC set up a Mineral Center at Lahore and a similar multidisciplinary Center was set up in Dhaka, in the then East Pakistan. With these two centres, the basic research work started.[citation needed]

Passel of globalists abetted this from the get-go. I can't imagine they didn't know that Bhutto was lying in wait, so to speak.

Pakistan’s bomb development was in response to India’s. Nothing to do with buzzwords.
