The US is playing another trick with Pakistani authorities by giving indications that a major chunk of $950 million to $1.1 billion under the Kerry-Lugar Law (KLL) would be disbursed to Pakistan during the last quarter (April-June) of 2010 when Pakistan will be in dire need of external inflows that will actually enable US authorities to dictate Islamabad for getting the desired results on all fronts, including getting visas for their liked contactors as well as the US officials.
There is lingering controversy over issuance of visas to US officials and now Washington is using its upcoming aid by establishing its linkage with resolution of this pending problem, said the official sources. The CSF is meant to reimburse the amount, which is being spent by Pakistan Army for mobilisation of its troops for fighting against the militants in tribal areas, adjacent to war-torn Afghanistan.
