The Battle for Pakistan showcases a marriage of convenience between unequal partners. The relationship the US has shared with Pakistan since the early 1950s has been nothing less than a roller coaster ride. Today, surrounded by hostile neighbours, with Afghanistan on its way to becoming an Indian satellite, Pakistan does not wish to break ties with the US. But will their missteps in the Obama years prove too costly? And how will the Trump administration salvage this? Based on many on record interviews with key leaders, The Battle for Pakistan untangles this complex relationship.
