U.S. military says, Pakistan’s continued support for resurgent militant groups hostile to the United States, coupled with warming U.S. military and business relations with India, is sharply diminishing Islamabad’s strategic importance as an ally to Washington.
A news agency, quoting US official, says, the United States has cut both military and economic aid to Pakistan sharply in recent years, because of Pakistan’s refusal to stop supporting the Taliban in Afghanistan.
According to US official, U.S – Pakistan relationship has spiked in recent years as the militant Islamic group has advanced in parts of Afghanistan that U.S. and allied forces once helped to secure.
