US - Pakistan relations

Gates stresses relations with Pakistan

Above is the link for the article starring retiring Defense secretary Robert Gates who is stressing the importance of US relations with Pakistan.

Pakistan is key in the fact that it is in between  Afghanistan and India, two very pivotal countries in US national interest.

Pakistan has always had a close relationship with the US. Ever since Nixon's China Game

Now, the Pakistan US relations have been deteriorating especially because the Pakistanis feel that their sovereignty has been compromised by the US in the strike that killed Osama Bin Laden. Since then the push has been for an improvement in relations.
