Abstract
The fourth round of 'strategic dialogue' between the United States and Pakistan ended on 25 March 2010 in Washington, hailed as a win-win exchange. The US seems upbeat as its key ally in the region has finally intensified its efforts to root out al-Qaida-affiliated Islamist militants on its own soil and truly distanced itself from its proxy, the Taliban in neighbouring Afghanistan. Likewise, Pakistan seems happy to receive a massive civilian and military aid package and the assurance from Washington that it will be given a central role in the Afghan endgame.
