In conclusion, despite the Israeli regime’s brutality and significant military losses, they have not achieved any of their objectives during the war. Multiple factors, including American pressure, regional efforts such as mediation by countries like Qatar and Egypt, and the steadfastness of the Palestinian people and their brave resistance fighters, compelled the Israeli regime to agree to this ceasefire. This agreement has not fulfilled any of their goals except for the release of Israeli prisoners from Hamas, in exchange for which even large numbers of Palestinian prisoners were freed.

By adminPosted on June 8, 2024Posted in Afghanistan, Analysis, Foreign Policy, Recent Analysis, Weekly Analysis PDFTagged AEI-America, Foreign Policy, slideshow, the United StatesNo Comments

There are three ways for the United States to engage with the Islamic Emirate:

Complete Isolation: Isolate the Islamic Emirate entirely and impose additional severe restrictions until they meet the U.S. demands.

Official Recognition: Recognize the Islamic Emirate officially and establish formal diplomatic relations with it.

Engagement without Recognition: Neither isolate it completely nor officially recognize it, but rather engage with it without formal recognition until the Islamic Emirate makes changes in its domestic policies.

So far, the United States has chosen the third path.

The specific objectives of U.S. foreign policy towards the Islamic Emirate include combating terrorism, fighting for the education and employment rights of girls, preventing drug trafficking, providing aid to prevent a humanitarian crisis, and evacuating U.S. allies from Afghanistan, and applying restrictions and pressure to make the Islamic Emirate meet its demands.

Based on the above, we conclude that if the future government of Pakistan is formed by the election team of the Muslim League Nawaz in coalition with the Pakistan People’s Party, due to the dissatisfaction of the absolute majority of Pakistan citizens (who identified themselves as supporters of Imran Khan in the elections), The intensification of the attacks from TTP and finally the freedom-loving and independence-seeking approach of the Afghans will cause the Pakistani authorities to accuse the Afghan government which will negatively impact the relationship between the Islamic Emirate and Pakistan affecting Afghanistan’s economy due to the creation of friction in the trade route to South Asia and even China from Pakistan, as well as creating political pressure that can have an unpleasant future for the Islamic Emirate
