America's arms supply to Pakistan rising
March 27, 2014  10:17
US arms supply and fresh military aid to Pakistan has quietly gained momentum in the last one year, Congressional sources have said.        

The Pentagon, according to publicly available documents, reports total Foreign Military Sales agreements with Pakistan worth about $5.2 billion for FY 2002-FY 2012.        

The resumption of US military aid to Pakistan is seen as a sign of normalisation of military-to-military ties between the US and Pakistan, which had hit rock bottom after the killing of Osama bin Laden by US forces in Abbottabad in May 2011.
