On Thursday, Pakistan requested the US to resume military finance and sales that had been halted by the administration of Ex-President Trump, as a top US official recognised the significance of the bilateral relationship in a crucial strategic area. Elizabeth Horst, the US's principal deputy assistant secretary of state for South and Central Asia, emphasised the necessity of aiding in the recovery of Pakistan's faltering economy and asked Islamabad to do so in partnership with the IMF (International Monetary Fund). The US-Pakistan relationship has been in a protracted state of instability ever since the US withdrew from Afghanistan. Pakistan's ties with the US have been more tense as a result of increased US competitiveness with China and the nation's faltering economy. However, there have been more high-level diplomatic interactions and discussions recently that have been centred on commerce, power, health, education, and defence. The half-day symposium at the Wilson Centre in Washington, DC, was concerned about the way the US-Pakistan relationship may be developed in the face of several difficult situations.
