Since the then Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan in 1979, the US has
seen India through the prism of Pakistan because of its commitments in
Afghanistan.
When Prime Minister Narendra Modi meets US President Joe Biden at the White House later this month, the two countries will have the monkey called Pakistan off their backs since the former Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan in the Af-Pak region. America's direct engagement with In the winter of 1979.
For the past four decades, bilateral relations between India and the United States had deteriorated with US involvement in Afghanistan, and the equation remained largely a hyphen until US Navy personnel attacked Pakistan at Abbottabad in May 2011. Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden shot dead near army canton.
In the intervening time, the US plan for India was largely determined by their commitments in the Af-Pak region, as Washington needed Rawalpindi to fight the Soviet Union first in the days of the Cold War and then Al Qaeda and 9/11. Taliban attacks after 11. Washington planners viewed bilateral relations between India and the United States through this prism, and therefore made strategic adjustments in favor of Rawalpindi GHQ.
Even after the brutal attacks by Pakistani terrorist groups on the Indian Parliament in December 2001 and on the Indian Army camp in Jammu and Kashmir's Kaluchak in May 2002, messages from the US President, the NSA, the Secretary of State and the Deputy Prime Minister were sent. The then NDA government should not wage war against Pakistan when US personnel were deployed in this country for the war against terrorism in Afghanistan. As the United States asked then-Pakistani dictator General Pervez Musharraf to ban terrorist groups from attacking India, New Delhi was asked to go easy on Pakistan, even as 10 children were brutally murdered in Kaluchak. was given.
When he visited India about a month after the Kaluchak massacre, US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld told his Indian counterpart George Fernandes that US relations with Pakistan were temporary, but he saw India as a long-term strategic ally.
This was because of US involvement in Afghanistan, Pakistan provided a free gate pass by the US administration on nuclear and missile proliferation, terrorism against India, and even a major non-official in 2003 without politely notifying India. -Rewarded with NATO status. While a strong US ecosystem in the media and think tanks is pressuring India in Kashmir without seeking equal responsibility from the terrorism fueling Islamabad. Despite the detailed evidence available with the CIA in AQ Khan's files, North Korea was banned for nuclear proliferation, but not Pakistan or China for that matter. The American ecosystem created images of nuclear war to stop India, whether Pakistan directly attacked India or used its proxy terrorist groups. Pakistan escaped cheaply in the Kargil War of 1999, even as the rogue Pakistani forces led by Musharraf invaded India from Batalik to the Mushkoh Valley in an extension of their dream of capturing Kashmir.
Pakistani breaches of the past four decades were not only ignored by the international community, but were rewarded by the United States with new military hardware and financial support, including the use of post-9/11 national security exemptions. Islamabad received billions of dollars in aid from the United States and the European Union in the name of the war on terrorism, despite the fact that everyone in the White House knew that Taliban and al Qaeda leaders were being celebrated by Rawalpindi. Even the F-16 fighter jets delivered to Pakistan for use in the war on terrorism in Afghanistan were used against India on February 27, 2019, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi was attacked by Pakistani terrorist groups. Pulwana had raided a terrorist camp in Balakot for the terrorist attacks. The American effort was complemented by the British, who still carry the royal legacy on their shoulders and believe that the Taliban are just the boys of the country.
That all changed when the Crown Prince of Terror, Sirajuddin Haqqani, using technical support about Pakistani ISI grounds and Chinese drone material and purchased satellite imagery, the military captured Kabul on August 15, 2021.
Today, US engagement with the Af-Pak region has ended or will be limited to counter-terrorism on the horizon. Pakistan is a client state in China, which in turn is in strategic competition with the United States and to a lesser extent with India. The rag-tag Islamic militia Taliban is in power in Kabul, and it does not recognize the Durand Line with the burning ambition of turning the world into an Islamic caliphate. The relationship between India and the United States is, for the first time, limitless with respect to the Pakistani factor, which has always dragged down bilateral relations, and the time for regional structural adjustments for the United States is over. The United States and its allies leaving Kabul.
