Donald Trump has taken the oath of the US President and started working. As soon as he assumed the office of the presidency, he has signed many orders which reflect his presidential policy. These orders currently have nothing for Pakistan. There is neither good nor bad. Currently, Pakistan does not appear anywhere in Donald Trump’s priorities. Therefore, there is nothing to worry about for the government of Pakistan. It is a matter of great concern for Tehreek-e-Insaaf. The hopes they have from Trump do not seem to be fulfilled.
I have written earlier that many of Trump’s policies are good for the state of Pakistan. Now you look at Trump’s policy towards Mexico, he wants to deport millions, not thousands, of illegal Mexicans. He has given orders to deploy troops on the Mexican border. You see this in the context of Pak-Afghan border, when Donald Trump is expelling Mexicans from the country, how can Pakistan stop the deportation of illegal Afghans?
Pakistan can now expel illegal Afghans more strictly. If the United States is deploying troops on the border to stop the arrival of people from Mexico, erecting a border fence, sealing the border, why can’t Pakistan close the Afghan border if it wants to build a border wall? Why can’t we put up a fence?
Why can’t we seal the border? Why can’t we build a wall? The policy that America has made for Mexico, Pakistan is making the same policy for Afghanistan. So I have a lot in common. I think Pakistan will now get the support of the Americans to take action on the Afghan border. When Trump has announced to send the criminals back to their countries, Pakistan can also send the Afghans involved in crimes back to their countries.
Trump’s policy also includes the announcement of a dollar freeze by the Taliban government in Afghanistan. This is also welcome for Pakistan. Because of these dollars, Afghan Taliban are following the policy of war against Pakistan. The warmth of these dollars was involved in harboring the TTP and attacks from there. As soon as these dollars stop, it will be easier for Pakistan to talk to the Afghan Taliban and get their say. We will also see the changed behavior of the Afghan Taliban. Therefore, this policy of Trump is also in favor of Pakistan. We should welcome it.
Richard Grinnell’s tweet came after President Trump took office. But there is no mention of Tehreek-e-Insaaf in it. I wrote earlier that he has been appointed Special Representative for Venezuela. Now his first tweet was about his assignment. He did not tweet about founder Tehreek-e-Insaaf anymore. This is not a good news for PTI friends. If he had made a tweet, Tehreek-e-Insaaf’s social media would have lost four moons. But it could not happen. He has done many tweets. But founder Tehreek-e-Insaaf is not the same. It seems they have forgotten the founder.
President Trump has also imposed a ban on taking political asylum in the United States. Anti-national people from Pakistan go to America for political asylum. And file asylum cases there. Some journalists intentionally make a case for political asylum in America by propagandizing against the army and Pakistan.
Stopping political asylum there will also benefit Pakistan. The paradise that the enemies of the country had made to America will end. I also think it is better in the specific conditions of Pakistan. A lot of people will have to go round Buria Bastar from America. Rather, they are seeing their asylum cases being rejected. Before this, Britain has also tightened the rules for political asylum. But the announcement of American President Trump is quite meaningful.
The beginning of the cold war between Trump and Europe is visible. Apart from the departure from the Paris Agreement, Trump’s policy on NATO is also very dangerous for Europe. Alarm bells are sounding in Europe. Europe will now need new allies. Otherwise, after the Second World War, Europe has appeared in the lap of America.
The alliance between Europe and the United States has played an important role in establishing the sovereignty of the United States in the world. Can Europe separate from America. But in such a case, what options does Europe have? The French president has already announced that Europe will have to look at weapons options other than American weapons. But what could they be? The US has used Europe extensively against Russia in the Cold War. Otherwise, Europe and Russia could have good relations. Will Trump’s new policies reduce the distance between Europe and Russia? Will China also get a chance to come closer to Europe? It will all be very interesting. So far, Pakistan has nothing to do with this whole conflict.
There is also an economic war between China and America. This war has existed before so it will not be a new war. Trump’s policies will not be new to China. China is ready for it. China has so far proven that it knows how to deal with economic warfare and find ways out of it. He works his way through diplomacy. He has made his way so far. Will it still be the same? But where the economic war is seen from China. There are also many bright prospects for Russia. Will Russia get some concessions from the US on the end of the Ukraine war? Russia has to sell oil.
Russia has to lift sanctions on itself. Will Trump give all this way? Therefore, the end of the Ukraine war will be important for Europe. Russia will also have to see what it is getting there. Trump’s soft spot for Putin is no secret. Therefore, Russia can get economic concessions. Russia will also benefit directly from Trump’s Europe policy.
Trump has not yet shown any soft spot for India either. The Biden administration had a soft spot for India. But there are indications that Trump is not particularly happy with Modi’s policies. Trump’s India policy will be very important for Pakistan. There have been reports that Modi wanted to attend Trump’s swearing-in ceremony. But not invited. However, the Indian Foreign Minister was invited. So far, Trump has not clarified any policy regarding India.
Therefore, Trump is not dangerous for Pakistan. We should consider Trump as a friend. There is nothing anti-Pakistan yet. We are not important. This is our fortune, we should live on it.
