Bill Summary

A BILL To terminate the designation of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan as a major non-NATO ally, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill seeks to terminate the United States' designation of Pakistan as a major non-NATO ally (MNNA), a special status that provides certain defense and trade benefits to strategic international partners. Specifically, the bill immediately removes Pakistan's MNNA status and prevents the President from re-designating Pakistan as an MNNA unless the President can certify to Congress that Pakistan has met four specific national security conditions: (1) Pakistan is conducting military operations that significantly disrupt the Haqqani Network's safe haven and movement within Pakistan; (2) Pakistan has taken tangible steps to prevent the Haqqani Network from using Pakistani territory as a safe haven; (3) Pakistan is actively coordinating with Afghanistan to restrict militant movement along their shared border; and (4) Pakistan is making demonstrable progress in arresting and prosecuting senior and mid-level Haqqani Network leaders. The bill reflects growing U.S. concerns about Pakistan's role in harboring terrorist networks and signals a potential shift in the bilateral relationship's military and strategic cooperation.
