Zusammenfassung: | In 2011 Pakistan's relations with the United States went from troubling to the brink of near collapse. Relations rapidly deteriorated after the arrest of a CIA contractor on murder charges, the United States raid that killed Osama bin Laden, and a NATO strike that killed two dozen Pakistani soldiers. Concurrently, and coincidently, China and Pakistan celebrated "Friendship Year" marking sixty years of diplomatic ties with high-profile state visits, multi-billion dollar economic deals, infrastructure projects and joint military exercises. Adapted from the source document. |
