  US-Pakistan Counter-Terrorism Cooperation Deepens Pakistan's strategic location as a "wall between terrorism and the rest of the world" has positioned it as a key player in international relations, particularly in the context of global counter-terrorism efforts. This was highlighted during a recent meeting with a US Congressional delegation led by Jack Bergman, Tom Suozzi, and Jonathan Jackson. Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi emphasized the importance of intelligence and technology sharing with the US, underscoring its frontline role in combating terrorism. Prime Minister Shehbaz welcomed US participation and emphasized the importance of enhanced cooperation on issues like counter-terrorism. The collaboration between Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Army Chief Syed Asim Munir is expected to lead to rapid economic growth by developing the sector and reducing reliance on international institutions like the IMF. Pakistan's vast mineral resources, including coal, oil, gas, copper, gold, and marble, have been neglected for years but hold significant potential for economic growth in the context of counter-terrorism efforts. The US delegation congratulated Pakistan on its frontline role in combating terrorism and acknowledged its potential to break free from IMF support by harnessing its "trillions of dollars" worth of mineral reserves.
