Seymour Rubin wrote today: "I met with Pakistani Prime Minister Shabaz Sharif today. I appreciate Pakistan's continued support for the U.S. President's Gaza peace plan and its joining of the Peace Commission. During the meeting, we discussed the importance of the strategic relationship between the two countries in the fields of critical mineral development and counter-terrorism."
Comments: This meeting between Rubin and the Pakistani Prime Minister is essentially about one side seeking Pakistan's support for the U.S. Middle East agenda, and the other side strengthening cooperation in counter-terrorism and critical minerals. Fundamentally, it reflects the U.S. continuing to stabilize traditional allies in South Asia. Pakistan, due to its geopolitical security and economic needs, chooses to maintain pragmatic cooperation with the U.S., but will not deviate from its own foreign policy balance strategy.
