Tribune Take: Pak-US mending fences in 2012?
2011 has been one of the worst years for bilateral ties between the two allies, says Huma Imtiaz.
In today’s episode of the Tribune Take we look at the latest from Washington DC about Pakistan-US relations.
Huma Imtiaz, The Express Tribune‘s correspondent based in Washington DC discusses statements made by the US State Department spokesperson saying that the United States was still talking to the Government of Pakistan at “all levels.”
Imtiaz says 2011 has been one of the worst years for bilateral ties between the two allies. The US government promises to have their Ambassador to continue talks with the Pakistani government as well, to discuss issues including the Iran-Pakistan pipeline.
Imtiaz says anti-Iran sentiment runs high in the United States, thus making such a deal with Pakistan a touchy subject as well.
