Looking Back, Looking Forward: Assessing the US-Pakistan Relationship

  • Nearly three years after the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, the US-Pakistan relationship remains in a state of uncertainty. The relationship is largely crisis-free, but still in search of new spaces for cooperation. It’s also struggling to find its place in a world consumed by intensifying great power competition, conflict in Ukraine and Gaza, and growing instability in the Middle East. Still, despite all this, the relationship has seen increased engagement of late in areas ranging from climate change to counterterrorism.
    This half-day conference will take stock of US-Pakistan relations, drawing on the views of senior officials, a group of former US ambassadors to Pakistan, journalists, scholars, business leaders, and Pakistan diaspora figures. It will reflect on how past experiences can help guide US policymakers working on the relationship today, and it will examine prospects for future cooperation-and how to get there.
    This conference is organized by the Wilson Center’s South Asia Institute in partnership with International Academy of Letters USA, a nonprofit organization that aims to promote cooperation through dialogue, the arts, and diplomacy.

    Pakistan is lucky to have wise and honest military people. They have safely invested Pakistani money in Papa John's pizza franchise, real estate in Canada, London, and Dubai, an island near Australia. Long live the Pakistani Establishment.

      The establishment also invested wisely in their "Assets", their apple of eyes, terrorists... now they are reaping rich dividends of the investment of the past 40 odd years... 😂😂😂😂😂

    David Hale seems to be the only hard-boiled realist in the room. The other ex-envoys clearly were put on a guilt trip by Kugelman. The Pak ambassador stuck to his lessons in the "Pakistan Studies and his life long learning in the Foreign Ministry and set it up nicely by playing the victimhood card. This conference rarely rose above the level of a lobbying exercise.

    Please rename the Wilson Center’s "South Asia Institute" as "AfPak Institute"!
    *South Asia has become defunct!*
    It is now known as the Indian Sub-continent which is part of the larger Indo-Pacific region.
    *Pakistan is now part of the AfPak region!*

      Michael Kuggelman is the additional Resident Ambassador for Pakistan in US. Wilson Center has always been a parking slot of radical Pakistani characters- primarily from Pak Army and those who can get away with a few literate phrases etc.

      ​@@munshi.brojeetwishful thinking can not be a policy or strategy. Yes, we'd like nothing better than have a US and Canada like border between India and Pak but we can't ignore that it is more akin to the US and Mexico border. Yes, peace is desirable, but tell me can there be peace with a rabid dog?
