Please read, Pakistan has NOT been listed, we are in Tier 2 watch list along with the likes of Romania and Ireland, This is misleading reporting by Dawn, as if we were placed there that would effectively end all Military to Military relations between US and Pak, even US are not that stupid.

This is not an indictment of the Pak fauj itself but probably for not doing enough to clamp down on militant and terrorist groups who do recruit kids. It's a matter of pride for those tribal warlords to have a bum boy for bachabazi purposes, often handed a shiny AK and garlanded with bullet belts.

It never ceases to amaze me that the country responsible for the greatest number of civilian deaths since the second world war has set itself up as the worlds moral policeman.

The army captain from the baby bottle core.... He's been charged with extrajudicial kills of POWs he had captured in the many operations he's been in.


Most notably was his massacre of POWs during the battle of the sandbox, where he and several other fauj fended off the brutal attacks from the older toddler Corps.

This picture of him smiling was not taken during peace time...it was taken when they were torturing a POW from the toddler Corps, by milk boarding him and bludgeoning him with baby rattles..... This baby.... Its dangerous....



Also it killed me when I saw it for the first time. Its too cute and funny [emoji23][emoji23]

The designation is included in the US State Department’s annual Trafficking in Persons (TIP) [report][1], which ranks countries in various tiers in accordance with their efforts for eliminating trafficking. — Reuters


WASHINGTON: The United States on Thursday added Pakistan and Turkey to its Child Soldiers Prevention Act (CSPA) list, a designation that could lead to strict sanctions on military assistance and listed countries’ participation in peacekeeping programmes.
The designation is included in the US State Department’s annual Trafficking in Persons (TIP) report, which ranks countries in various tiers in accordance with their efforts for eliminating trafficking.
The US Child Soldiers Prevention Act requires publication in the annual TIP report of a list of foreign governments that have recruited or used child soldiers during the previous year (April 1, 2020, to March 31, 2021). The entities reviewed for this designation include armed forces, police, other security forces and government-supported armed groups.
The 2021 CSPA list includes governments of the following countries: Afghanistan, Burma, Democratic Republic of Congo, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Mali, Nigeria, Pakistan, Somalia, South Sudan, Syria, Turkey, Venezuela and Yemen.

Three of these countries — Congo, Somalia, and Yemen — have appeared on every CSPA list since 2010, when the designation started. Nine others — Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Mali, Burma, Nigeria, South Sudan, and Syria — have appeared more than once over the last 10 years.
Six governments were identified on the first CSPA list in 2010.
Ten years later, the list more than doubled to 14 countries and to 15 in 2021 — the highest number of countries ever identified in a single year. This year’s list includes repeat offenders, two one new additions — Pakistan and Turkey — and some renewed appearances that were previously removed.
The statement, issued by the State Department in Washington, defines the term “child soldier” as: Any person under 18 years of age who takes a direct part in hostilities as a member of governmental armed forces, police, or other security forces.
Those compulsorily recruited into governmental armed forces, police, or other security forces are also included as are those under 15 years of age who have been voluntarily recruited into governmental armed forces, police or other security forces.
Any person under 18 years of age who has been recruited or used in hostilities by armed forces distinct from the armed forces of a state is also considered a child soldier.
The term “child soldier” is also applied to a person who is serving in any capacity, including in a support role, such as a “cook, porter, messenger, medic, guard, or sex slave”.
The CSPA prohibits listed governments in the following US programmes: International Military Education and Training, Foreign Military Financing, Excess Defence Articles, and Peacekeeping Operations. Some programmes undertaken pursuant to the Peacekeeping Operations authority, are exempted.
The CSPA also prohibits the issuance of licences for direct commercial sales of military equipment to such governments.
Beginning October 1, 2021, and effective throughout Fiscal Year 2022, these restrictions will apply to the listed countries, except those who receive a presidential waiver, applicable exception, or reinstatement of assistance pursuant to the terms of the CSPA.
The determination to include a government in the CSPA list is informed by a range of sources, including first-hand observation by US government personnel and research and credible reporting from various UN entities, international organisations, local and international NGOs, and international and domestic media outlets.
