Abstract
The attacks of 9/11 caused US to attack Afghanistan. Indian engagement in
Afghan issue has serious consequences on the region particularly on Pakistan.
The present Indo-US entente is considered as “irreversible” and is known as
“Strategic Partnership”. Both states took number of steps leading them to further
develop this partnership including economic, trade, space, nuclear technology,
missile technology, and defense cooperation. The security environment of South
Asia, on the other hand, has always been blemished with traditional rivalry
between the major states of the region, Pakistan and India since their inception.
The nature of mutual relations of both of these states determine the security
environment of the region. The rise of one of them as a regional power creates
apprehensions for the other and is also meant to be the destabilization of the
region. In this scenario, India US cooperation particularly in high-tech defense
equipment has been the cause of anxieties in Pakistan. This paper tries to review
the Indo-US-Pakistan strategic ties and its implications on Pakistan.
