The Attrition of U.S.-Pakistan Relations under the Trump Administration: Causes and Consequences
Pakistan is a key ally in the Afghanistan war. This paper aims to analyze the fundamental changes in US policy towards Pakistan during the Donald Trump era. The sixteen-year struggle of US and NATO forces on Afghan soil was crushed by the Taliban. The US changed policies on the Afghan issue & made Pakistan a scapegoat. The allegations against Pakistan with the help of militants were installed in Pakistan to hide the US's false ambition to control Afghan land. The US policymakers in the Afghan war wanted to escape from the war region. All the war indiscretions were ignored at once & Pakistan alone was criticized for helping the militants of the Haqqani network. After analysis, the paper has shown the US steps against Pakistan during the Trump era. The aid & reimbursement payments and policies of the US are critically examined in this paper during the Trump era against fundamental objectives & sovereignty of Pakistan.
