Pakistan wants space and nuke treaty with America to counter India – America quietly sidelines the proposal
"Having its own strategic relations with the US, Pakistan would like to extend this cooperation in multiple fields, including the peaceful uses of nuclear energy and space technology," Pakistan’s foreign office spokesman Naeem Khan was quoted as saying in Islamabad.
But sources say United States does not consider India and Pakistan at the same level any more. According to international think tanks, if anything India is regarded as the counter weight to China. Above all, Washington’s preference for India comes from the fact that India is roaring democracy in the region and is an economic power block.
Pakistan, which is designated Washington’s "Major Non-Nato Ally," wants a whole new defence pact similar to the one signed between the defence establishments of India and the United States. "We hope the US will sign a similar defence pact with Pakistan so that the balance of power is not upset," Khan said at his weekly briefing on Monday.
According to sources, Pakistan is regarded as a great ally for America as far as the war on terror is concerned, But Washington also understands that Pakistan behaves only because India is right there staring at it.
America will enter into some strategic relationship with Pakistan but not to match that of India.
