What terrorists which terrorists?

Why don't they ever name or quantify these khalai makhlooq

But this "we'll help you with Afghanistan if you help us with Kashmir" approach may not work for many reasons, and it may not be up to USA to keep any other interested party, be it India, or someone else, out of Afghanistan.

Thats why a quid-pro-quo incremental process can at least push the issue in the right direction for all sides. There are limitations, but progress is better than nothing, and in the mean time, relations will have been reset with realistic expectations from all sides. The mutually respectful relations the Prime Minister outlined in his speech.

 

[El Sidd]

We are well and truly in a new chapter of our History with respect to Pak-American relations.

The relations will be purely based on reciprocacy and mutual respect.

It is not rocket science that America needs Pakistan more than Pakistan needs America. The Americans have been told to do more in Afghanistan as stability in the region depends on a peaceful Afghanistan.

Pakistan is set to thrive in this multipolar world.

What does this claimed "reset" look like from the Pakistani point of view?

Look at my lion walking into the room and look a pompeo giving him respect. Ah a lovely moment.

Given the state of relations between the U.S. and Pakistan, I suppose you think I should be thankful that IK didn't arrive wielding his cricket bat...

There is one point I picked during SMQ media briefing which obviously he mentioned in diplomatic terms but to put it bluntly, Pakistan old yanks to keep their bitch in east under control so we can work on Afghan issue in west.

Taking in to account the security needs of Pakistan, and supporting a peace that does not compromise Pakistan's core national interests. A power sharing agreement will have to assure Pakistan all Afghan parties respect the territorial integrity of Pakistan; Durand Line as the Border, and no further claims will be made over territory on Eastern side of it. No elements operating in Afghanistan can be used to attack or undermine any foreign nation, including Pakistan in Baluchistan for example. Power sharing that is robust and all-inclusive would assure rebel factions in every part of government, and a rewriting of the constitution to reflect that.

Guarantee these kinds of agreements, so that Pakistan never has to deal with threats from its western border ever again. A stable and sustainable peaceful Afghanistan with what ever laws its people decide will be their business. the US will give up nation building; i.e. trying to change the culture and focus on the core objectives of prevent trans-national threat to come from the region.

That is a good list, but to get all or most of it, what is Pakistan able to offer in return that USA will find useful to its national interests?

Wtf do you think we are American enemies?
We have disagreements with them on many issues. From embassy in Jerusalem to their Afghan policy. Our govt acted with hospitality and we did our best to improve relations despite those disagreements.

Relation don't get well in a single day it is a time taking process. Pompeo is a govt employ not an elected leader. He was given the honor of meeting our leader that should be enough for him.

Yes they also saw the chain of command in exact order today.

Would you have been pleased if IK chose to carry his cricket bat to the meeting or not?
