Direct funding of Pakistani military forces in recent years is indeed unsubstantiated, but occurred as recently as 2018.

We still provide some significant funding to Pakistan for humanitarian and development (i.e. civilian) efforts. This information is widely available online.

So GP is wrong to be so confident and absolute about their claim that we still fund the Pakistani army, but we do indeed give money to their government, and the Pakistani government is not independent of its army. It’s a messy situation.

Just trying to provide a bit of a more nuanced view before this heavy-handed comment you’re replying to is dismissed outright.

What does the commented being in India have to do with what he said? It is absolutely true Khan didn’t want to cancel the Russia trip when it happened the day of the strike.
