Abstract

Pak-American relationship and its problematics are usually looked at through the lens of realpolitik. Analysts tend to describe this relationship as need-based and transactional (Sutter 2014). Both countries would come close to pursue contiguous interests in different phases of history, however, with the passage of time mutual cooperation faced challenges either from divergence of interests or direct mistrust about each other’s intentions (Ibid).
