USA confused to choose Partner between India and Pak. In recent time USA Foreign policy has been rollercoaster. On one hand America want to award Pakistan for supporting in killing AL- QUIDA chief Al- Jawahiri in Afghanistan. They gave F-16 upgrade offer to Pakistan as a reward. On other hand Indian Foreign Minister at Washington criticied American foreign policy for cheating India at its own home soil. He said " We all know where F-16 are going to be used and against whom ? Don't fool us, We know F-16 never used in any anti terrorist activites ever by Pak." Later US banned 29 Hindu outfits in its country. India buying oil from Russia and not following road map made by Joe Biden. US President wanted to counter India for supporting Russia by buying oil and natural gas and being absent for voting against them in UNHRC . So US ambassador in Islamabad visited to PoK and in his tweet he used word "Azad Kashmir". This statement has not gone well with Indian foreign ministry. Over to it they banned Indian company too. So India did a counter attack and when Uighur Muslim case came in UNHRC against China. India, unexpected by USA, didn't participated in voting and China won. It was such a big blow for American President that he is not able to answer media that why a friend like India, didn't supported USA, against China in United Nations?.
India's decision to not cast vote against China is Masterstroke. We gave America, China and Russia clear message that we don't follow any nation. We take independent decisions in national interest. USA has come on backfoot and suddenly the grand welcome of Pak Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa to Pentagon turned into low key affairs. Even US foreign minister Anthony Blinken and Bajawa pictures of meetings in Pentagon not released. Media was not allowed when Pak Army Chief visited. It was kind of insult melted on him. It was clearly visible that USA diplomacy is under big pressure from India. Narendra Modi led government is not taking anything for granted and Dr S Jaishankar is very vocal on free foreign policy of country. India is part of QUAD but not voted against China, is such a shock for USA that it is now confused to whom to choose partner between India and Pak.
India, on other hand taking its decision on basis of National benefits. Partner in 4 members group in South China sea but same time, not against Russia and abstained from voting against China. US policy mekers who thought to dominate Hindustan now feeling confused how to react on India. PM Narendra Modi and MEA has been instrumental in making India's reach to Europe and African nations and Narendra Modi enjoy most popular and powerful international leader status. Joe Biden on other hand struggling within his nation and outside. OPEC nations not taking his order. Saudi Arabia Prince and UAE leaders not even picked his phone calls. Now they have against American will, decided to cut in Oil production. Image of World super power is fading. On other hand Indio-China conflicts seems going to be end. USA takes China as biggest threat. To counter She Jinping it needed Indian army support. So India is in position to dominate United states of America.
With Pakistan, USA want relations because it want to counter Taliban in Afghanistan and Iran. From this point they can't ignore Sahbaz Sharif. Relation with both India and Pakistan at same time is near impossible. US dimplomacy is being tested right now. India enjoyed relations with USA during Donald Trump but during current President, they are into trouble water.
To Whom USA will choose In India and Pak ?
In current scenario, India stand out and has upper hand due to its political and economical stability. India has biggest market for USA companies and 5th largest economy in the world. India is also a need of America to counter China. On other side, Pakistani economy and political stability is concern. Export of Terror and terrorists has put them in graylist of FATF. Pak is also dependent on China and they have cheated USA many times. USA policy makers know what happened one year ago when Taliban captured Afganistan. How Imran khan led government has supported Taliban isntead of US Army.
If these things are not enough then growing diplomatic stature of India in African nations and European countries they have seen in UN. 9 nations leaders thanked Indian government and supported VETO and permanent membership of India in United nations. India has equally good relation with Russia. Except few countries like China ,Pak, turkey, Azarbaizan and fews american Pitthu nations like UK and Germany all are in India's favor. It will be difficult to ignore India for USA policy makers. Pak will not get that importance it had enjoyed so many years since Independence of both neighbouring countries.
