The Economist published a comprehensive report yesterday. It talks about Pakistan's growing relationship with US. Both sides are working on expanding trade ties and the US is working on initiating Military equipment delivery to Pakistan to strengthen its' force's capability. This list has Military gear like Night Vision, Sniper Equipment, F-16's upgrade, BVR missiles, and unconfirmed negotiation on Cobras too.
This report is now on Pakistani media. Watched it on Duniya and Dawn news. The report should propagate to other media in a day or so. The Report starts with:
Pakistan’s army chief, could hardly have wished for more. For almost two years, he had been under fire at home over his meddling in politics. Wracked by debt and insurgent violence, his country had been sidelined in geopolitics as America and other rich countries courted India, Pakistan’s arch-rival. And yet there he was, enjoying a private lunch with Donald Trump in the White House on June 18th, just over a month after Pakistan’s brief conflict with India. Then, at the end of July, came further snubs for India: branding it a “dead economy”, Mr Trump imposed tariffs of 25% while hailing a new trade deal with Pakistan.
------ IF YOU DON'T HAVE A PAID ACCOUNT WITH ECONOMIS, READ BELOW A SUMMARY OF THE REPORT -------
British weekly The Economist has paid a strong tribute to Pakistan’s Army Chief Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, calling him the architect of a “diplomatic and strategic transformation” in the South Asian region.
A special article published on August 3,
The Economist stated that Field Marshal Asim Munir is not only injecting new life into Pak-US relations but is also successfully maintaining balanced ties with China, the Middle East and Gulf countries.
The article pointed out that on June 18, Field Marshal Asim Munir held a private meeting with US President Donald Trump at the White House in Washington, which has been described as the beginning of a diplomatic shift in the region.
Immediately after the meeting, the US imposed a 25% tariff on India and declared it a “dead economy”, while announcing a trade deal with Pakistan and imposing a relatively lower 19% tariff.
According to
The Economist, the United States is working seriously on restoring defence, counter-terrorism cooperation, and trade ties with Pakistan, signalling a major shift in American policy in South Asia, China, and the Middle East.
According to the journal, American policymakers are reassessing India’s subversive activities and its role in the region.
American officials have also openly acknowledged Pakistan’s operations against Daesh, and the United States is considering providing Pakistan with armoured vehicles, night vision devices and other defence hardware.
The Economist stated that global diplomats and investors are in direct contact with the field marshal, while President Trump’s inner circle is keenly interested in investing in Pakistan’s crypto and mining sectors.
The magazine further wrote that Field Marshal Asim Munir’s popularity significantly increased after the recent conflict with India.
Despite India’s provocative actions, he responded promptly and effectively without succumbing to pressure – a move that has established him as a strong and decisive leader both within Pakistan and on the global stage.
The Economist’s article is a clear indication that under the leadership of Field Marshal Asim Munir, Pakistan is no longer a pawn in geopolitical games but is emerging as an active and independent policy-making state on the global front.

Pakistan doesn't buy Russian oil and finance Ukraine war.
