Narendra Modi made a splash by inviting President Obama for the Republic day parade. One thought that this was a diplomatic coup and Modi will be able to convince the USA to take Pakistan to task for fomenting terror activities in India. Modi subsequently visited the USA and there was much talk of cooperation with the USA on exporting and combating terror. One thought was that now the time has come when the USA will act against Pakistan.
Unfortunately nothing of the sort has happened and Pakistan remains firmly as a partner of the USA. In fact during the visit of the Pak PM Nawaz Sharif a joint statement was issued lauding the efforts of Pakistan in combating terror groups. No mention was made of Pak fomenting all the trouble in Kashmir and the shielding of the culprits for the Mumbai massacre on 26/11.
Now general Raheel the Pak army chief is in USA and he has also been given a warm welcome and it is affirmed that Pak is a part of the US orbit and plan in SE Asia. Where does it leave Modi? This man has come a cropper at most places and even Nepal is gravitating to China. What use are his foreign trips when he cannot drive home the point that terror emanates from Pakistan?
The Chief of the Pakistan army has just completed a visit to the USA and it is noted that he has won the backing of the US government and also lauded as theman who leads the " fight on terror". What a traversity of truth, but the USA has it's own priorities
