• After 9/11, the Pak-US relationship is a case of US public diplomacy failure in Pakistan.
• The US provided USD 10,744.63 million to Pakistan in economic aid over 20 years through US AID.
• Anti-Americanism remained explicitly high in Pakistan.
• The US must overhaul its approach to Pakistan, where 64 per cent of youth is below 30 years. It presents the US with the potential to mend its image in the eyes of the masses.
