Trump Picked Pakistan. Will It Last?
In the latest episode of Geopolitical GupShup, Imran and Sheharyar talk to Dr. Daniel Markey about U.S.–Pakistan ties, U.S.–China rivalry, and the risks of another India–Pakistan conflict. Is Washington’s renewed interest in Pakistan here to stay?

Very interesting and thought-provoking discussion with Dr. Dan Markey (@MarkeyDaniel) on U.S.–Pakistan relations, the China factor, and the risk of another India–Pakistan flare-up. Worth a listen if you’re trying to make sense of where U.S. policy toward Pakistan might actually be headed.

Strange messaging...Ten days ahead of Rubio visit to India, US government suspends top Indian firms in US's ability to hire Indians.
.@Sonderling47: "I am hereby suspending from the Permanent Labor Certification Program some of the largest IT outsourcing firms in the world — Cognizant, Infosys, Tata, Wipro, HCL, and Capgemini — and also, due to multiple active federal investigations, @USDOL is suspending Microsoft and Adobe from the program."

Major development in the Saudi-Pakistan-Türkiye defence pact. The Makkah Alliance is moving from declarations to implementation: agreed military forces and capabilities, rapid deployment in Saudi Arabia, and greater military integration. Pakistan’s Lt Gen Nauman Mahmood has been appointed its first Secretary-General.
For Pakistan, this brings influence but also difficult choices: how far it commits militarily, avoids being drawn into regional conflicts, and balances ties with Iran and other neighbours.

I regretfully announce that PIPS’ upcoming Pakistan Security Dialogue has been cancelled following the cancellation of visas for most of the foreign delegates and Serena Hotel’s cancellation of all bookings, citing security reasons. No written explanation has been provided yet.
