What you will read in this publication:
- Afghan-U.S relation; from tumultuous period to deterioration
- The relation subsequently started deteriorating between Karzai and the White house, however president Karzai claimed that it is just a light and soft wrestle between him and US for the benefits of Afghanistan but in most of the times this light wrestle became serious after some incidents like killing of innocent Afghans by U.S and NATO troops.
- U.S – Pakistan Strategic dialogue
- Currently the discussions over Bilateral Security Agreement pact between Afghanistan and U.S is another important issue. The supporters of this pact are arguing that giving military bases to America is important because of the security threats from Pakistan which means that “zero-sum game” has been emerged in this relation. This situation in international relations means that there are clashes of interests in bilateral relations. According to this perspective each interaction between America and Pakistan is against Afghanistan and each interaction between Afghanistan an America is against Pakistan. So the strategic dialogue between U.S and Pakistan will threat the need of strategic and security agreement with Afghanistan.
- A decade of failure in the fight against corruption
- Therefore removing the complication from bureaucratic systems, positive and effective motivation of human resources, integration with civil society, private sector and public and also interactions among various governmental bodies for effective fight against corruption seems important points in the strategy for this purpose.
