Mutual Defense Assistance Agreement 1954

An immediate positive result of the U.S. decision to extend military aid to Pakistan could have been the authorization of the U.S. aircraft involved in the recent airlift to Indochina to refuel in Pakistan. We support the sustainability of the current Afghan government through technical assistance and loans from the Export-Import Bank. Export-Import Bank recently agreed to extend a new $18.5 million development loan to Afghanistan. (a) “classified military information” (hereinafter referred to as “CMI”), any defence information produced by the United States Department of Defense or the Japanese Ministry of Defence, established for use or use by the Japanese Ministry of Defence, or any defence information produced or held by other competent authorities of the United States government or the Government of Japan or Japan. and this requires protection in the interest of the national security of the original party. The information must have a security classification and, if necessary, an appropriate indication to identify this information as a CMI. This information may be presented in oral, visual, electronic, magnetic or documentary form, or in the form of devices or technologies; It is possible that some of our friends abroad may be disoriented by this reaction. You may be wondering: isn`t the military aid given to India by Pakistan`s allies exclusively for the fight against Communist China? Didn`t India promise not to use these weapons against Pakistan? Didn`t the United States and Britain also assure that if India used these weapons in an aggression against Pakistan, it would act to thwart the aggression? Are these safeguards not sufficient to protect Pakistan from the possible abuse of Western weapons against them? So why can they, can they inquire, alert the Pakistanis? But until last fall, U.S. policy distinguished between a “non-aligned” India and the U.S. ally, Pakistan. Although, as part of a mutual defence assistance agreement signed in 1951 (confirmed in 1958), India also received some military aid from the United States without accepting any of the commitments related to an Ally-American policy, it generally maintained a key difference between an ally and a neutral on the issue of direct military assistance.
