The US-Pakistan ties have historically fluctuated due to third-party involvement. A significant trust deficit has resulted from the lack of bilateral push in the relationships. Both the countries attempted to change the direction of their interaction after understanding this major issue in their relationship, particularly following the US pullout from Afghanistan in 2021. The book traces the troubled history of the US-Pakistan relationship and projects its future with an emphasis on issues beyond security that will bring the two countries’ people closer together and bridge the trust gap.
