WASHINGTON: Pakistan and the United States will make another major effort to improve bilateral ties next week when Foreign Secretary Tehmina Janjua arrives here for a series of meetings with senior American officials.
Secretary Janjua’s March 6-8 visit follows a surprise trip to Islamabad last week by a senior Trump official, Lisa Curtis, who spoke of the need to build a new relationship with Pakistan after her talks with senior Pakistani officials.
Ms Janjua is scheduled to meet senior US officials at the State Department but it’s still not clear if she will meet Ms Curtis at the State Department or will hold a separate meeting with her and her staff at the White House.

Peace loving Pakistan does not want its peace for all loving ties changed, re-arranged or estranged with any nation including US at the foremost.

Height of stupidity, but carry on. The farce has to be maintained somehow for the world to see.

It is in the interest of both countries to sort out their differences.

These backdoor in-capable civil servants have no capability, lack sincerity and enthusiasm for the country. Majority of them probably ho;ding fake degrees and come from an elite class depriving common people of their basic rights.Their actions is the basic cause of why Pakistan is failing on all diplomatic fronts.
