Abstract
US–Pakistan relations are entering a new phase following the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan after nearly 20 years and the Taliban’s rise to power in Kabul. Pakistan’s civilian leaders would like to see relations with the US focused less on security and more on trade and economic issues. But to the extent the US remains involved in the region, it will probably be for counter-terrorism purposes, not as an investor in or political partner of Pakistan.
