Pakistan has shown a big act this time to prove its faith once again towards America. The US Central Command (Uscentcom) Chief General Michael Kurilla has been awarded the capital of the capital Islamabad and awarded one of his country’s highest state honors. Pakistan has done all this to avoid the restrictions of Financial Action Task Force (FATF).
This honor was given to the US General by Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari. Let us know that General Michael Kurilla has praised Pakistan many times in the last few months. He has often described Pakistan’s contribution as important in the fight against terrorism.
Pakistan shows loyalty towards Donald Trump
It is believed that the Sharif government of Pakistan is presenting evidence of its loyalty to Donald Trump, who had recently met the field marshal Asim Munir of Pakistan. General Michael Kurilla has been honored for his contribution in strengthening Pakistan US military relations. General Kurilla interacted with Zardari and Pakistani Army Chief General Asim Munir for a long time.
After the Pahalgam terror attack, FATF has started fasting Pakistan and Pakistan is quite scared due to the TRF terrorist organization and they feel that they can be included in the gray-list. The FATF meeting is scheduled to be held in September-October and before that Pakistan is making every effort to please America.
Pakistan was kept in the gray list of FATF in 2018
Pakistan was placed in the gray-list of FATF in 2018 and was taken out in October 2022. Diplomatic sources say that by providing supreme military honors, Pakistan is showing its loyalty and synergy towards the US defense establishment. The US is a founding member of FATF and has an important role in its policy -making process, so this step of Pakistan is being seen as a strategy to get financial help from Washington.
According to a report, Pakistan is playing a dual role because on one hand they are dependent on China, on the other hand, Islamabad is now indicating that it is no longer dependent on China. After the US exiting Afghanistan in 2021, the centcom remains important for the regional military strategy.
