DID Press: Reports published in recent weeks indicate that Pakistan has been seeking a $10 billion financial facility from the United States to strengthen its foreign-exchange reserves and support economic stability.
The request reportedly followed Islamabad’s role in mediating between Iran and the United States, and has been covered by several media outlets.
Meanwhile, Adil Raja, a Pakistani journalist and former army officer, has made the controversial claim that the issue goes beyond economic assistance or financing.
Raja alleges that Pakistani politicians and military officials have offered Washington strategic concessions in exchange for financial resources, ultimately putting “Pakistan’s sovereignty” at risk of being handed over to the United States.
