Description

The article examines US economic and military assistance to Pakistan since September 2001, breaking it down into debt relief, military aid, economic assistance and reimbursements for logistics support. Using four key indicators, the author argues that even a complete withdrawal of US aid would have only a marginal impact on Pakistan's budget, foreign exchange receipts and overall economy. The piece concludes that Pakistan should not be unduly concerned about losing US official aid and should instead focus on broader bilateral economic ties.
