Reuters has published an analysis by Golnar Motevalli that suggests that U.S. strategy in Afghanistan (and vis-a-vis Pakistan) is increasingly centering around an India focus. Motevalli quotes an unnamed diplomat as saying, "Obama has also been clear that he sees the Pakistan situation very much through the prism of India" which is an interesting comment (and somewhat of a departure from past policy which put the emphasis on Pakistan).
If in the past the U.S. had a tilt toward Pakistan, is the opposite now occurring--and will it accelerate under the new administration?
