Pakistan and the United States established diplomatic relations on August 15, 1947, a day after Pakistan's independence, with the U.S. being one of the first countries to recognize the new nation. This relationship has been a "roller coaster," featuring periods of close cooperation and deep bilateral estrangement. Despite a troubled history, the Pakistani military has played a significant role in American geopolitical strategy and has been a major non-NATO ally since 2002. Following Pakistan's involvement in the Afghan peace process and the Taliban's takeover in Afghanistan in 2021, many U.S. policymakers are reassessing relations with Pakistan. Meanwhile, the growing strategic partnership between the United States and India is adding pressure on Pakistani diplomacy.
