The Center for American Progress has just released a report of its findings from a recent trip to Pakistan. Working off of the notion that the U.S. should develop a long-term partnership with Pakistan, Lawrence J. Korb, Brian Katulis, and Colin Cookman offer ten policy recommendations for formulating this approach. The recommendations include:
Initiating comprehensive engagement with a broad range of Pakistani actors to include think tanks, lawyers groups, NGOs, the military, and the general public.
Strengthening the police and judiciary and their role in countering terrorism
Increasing assistance to internally displaced persons
Increasing bilateral development assistance to advance Pakistani civilian government capacity
Reforming the leading institutions of U.S. diplomacy and foreign development assistance
