Waqas Khosa Introduction The geopolitical landscape of South Asia is undergoing a structural realignment as bilateral ties between Washington and Islamabad shift from traditional security dependencies toward business and energy-driven diplomatic frameworks. Historically characterized by transactional military alliances, the modern Pakistan–United States relationship is moving toward infrastructure investments and trade stability.
