Pakistan at a critical juncture
General Bajwa went to the US at a time when his relations with Pakistan were at a critical juncture. After many years America started trusting his country. Political upheaval has been going on in Pakistan ever since Imran Khan came to power in April. If the information given by the sources is to be believed, then Pakistan does not want anything from America, but it just wants its good and balanced relations with China. At the same time, his motive was also to ask for help to reduce tension with India. He is leaving his post at a time when the economic condition of the country is very bad. At the same time, military relations have also deteriorated.
America gave warning
US officials have also cautioned Bajwa about the growing closeness with China. The US has also made it clear to Bajwa that Pakistan also needs to establish a political system within the country according to the rules. However, America also knows that China has a debt of $ 29.82 billion on Pakistan i.e. 30 percent of the total debt is Chinese debt. In such a situation, relations with China are just a compulsion.
Difficult relations with India
Bajwa also mentioned India during this period. Bajwa pointed out to the US that the diplomatic dispute has subsided even after Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s hardline Hindu government and anti-Muslim elements. But still the situation on the Line of Control (LOC) remains tense. At the same time, General Bajwa also referred to Article 370, which was removed from Jammu and Kashmir in August 2019. If sources are to be believed, General Bajwa reiterated that after whatever was done in Kashmir, bilateral relations have become difficult.
bajwa the strongest
The responsibility of strengthening and taking forward relations with other countries rests with diplomats who have nothing to do with the military. Before Bajwa, Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto had gone on a visit to America. But it is also true that Bajwa, who is the army commander of six lakh people and the general of a country equipped with nuclear capability, his stature is above even the MPs elected after the elections in the country. Many people have many apprehensions about Bajwa’s future. At the same time, some people are not shying away from asking the question whether his visit to America can strengthen his ties with Pakistan.
mention of afghanistan
In the midst of a weak government, depleting foreign exchange reserves and terrible floods, Pakistan is also facing many other challenges. According to sources, the US has kept an eye on many issues after General Bajwa’s arrival in Pakistan. Bajwa’s visit to America also proves that he needs Pakistan’s advice in matters related to Afghanistan.
