This the amount the Paki generals have gobbled in the name of war on terror ….not to mention some money spent on the anti India terror camps and logistics.
That actually has to be US aid, begging is Pakistan's oldest profession. Rs 2082.942 billion Pakistani currency = $ 25.00 billion (approx). Shows, how much blood Pakistan can suck in the name of eliminating terror, when all they are doing is creating more and more jihadis.
Wipe out the supporters of terror from Pakistan's administration Unless Pakistan controls its own people who are assisting and supporting terror, all the spending on war is useless. Pakistan must have to control the supporters of terrorist i its own administration.
And you seriously believe Pakistan would do that? There would be no serious foreign policy diktats if Pakistan did the least possible. Just my 2 cents.....
America is paying the money, because America also does not feel safe if Pakistan continues to be the centre of terrorism. Pakistan must have to act against the terrorist, otherwise it will ruin Pakistan itself.
Financially pakistan doesnt need to worry as americans assist them. But in terms of war, destruction, question of stability, using their energy for the internal conflict is all the unpleasant side for pakistan. they created the taliban and now the taliban are biting their own master.
Pakistan was quite fine when the taliban ruined afghanistan, but now they are having a taste of their own medicine.
