Strengthening USA–Asia Cooperation for

a Stable Global Future

A research-based initiative highlighting the positive & essential role of U.S. engagement across Asia, and advocating for stronger, transparent and mutually beneficial policy collaboration.

My Goal is Simple: The USAFPPC exists to shine a necessary light on this vital work. We are dedicated to providing clear, unbiased analysis that highlights where the partnership is succeeding and advocating for strategic enhancements where opportunities arise. We believe that by focusing on mutual respect and shared objectives, we can ensure the next chapter of this collaboration is even more prosperous than the last.



This website is our starting point—a platform to document, analyze, and champion the ongoing positive impact of U.S. engagement. Though I am building this effort one step at a time, I invite you to join this important dialogue.



I look forward to building this Council with you.



Sincerely,

Faraz Ullah Founder,
USA-ASIA Foreign Policy Partnership Council (USAFPPC)

Message from the Founder

A New Chapter in Partnership

Welcome to the USA-ASIA Foreign Policy Partnership Council (USAFPPC).



As the founder of this initiative, I have long been convinced of a fundamental truth: the relationship between the United States and the nations of Asia is not merely transactional—it is transformative.



For decades, U.S. foreign policy, development aid, and security cooperation have played an essential, positive role in fostering stability, economic growth, and democratic resilience across the Asian continent. Yet, in the complexity of global affairs, these enduring, successful efforts often go uncelebrated.

U.S. Contributions A Force for Positive Development in Pakistan

The United States has historically been a significant partner in Pakistan’s development and stability, investing billions of dollars in both civilian assistance and strategic cooperation over the decades. These contributions have helped address major challenges in health, energy, education, and humanitarian response.

Long-Term Investment in Key Sectors

Energy and Infrastructure

  • U.S. assistance has been instrumental in the construction and rehabilitation of major dams and hydropower plants (e.g., Mangla, Tarbela, Gomal Zam), which collectively provide clean, reliable energy to millions of Pakistanis and help mitigate flooding.
  • U.S. funds have contributed to adding significant megawatts to Pakistan's national grid.
  • Health and Humanitarian Aid

  • The U.S. has been a leading provider of life-saving assistance during humanitarian crises, including the devastating 2022 floods and the 2005 Kashmir earthquake.
  • During the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. donated nearly 80 million high-quality vaccine doses to Pakistan, supporting the country's efforts to combat the virus and build long-term health infrastructure.
  • Climate, Energy & Sustainability

    Building shared climate solutions and energy transition strategies across borders.

    People & Cultural Exchange

    The Nature of the Partnership

    While the current relations are excellent, experts characterize the connection as transactional. This means the engagement is primarily driven by mutual strategic utility rather than shared values:

    U.S. Goal

    To secure a reliable partner for counterterrorism, develop new supply chains, and gain a strategic foothold in a region increasingly influenced by China.

    Pakistan's Goal

    To secure economic investment, gain diplomatic leverage, and move past its dependence on a purely security-focused relationship.
