- If approved, Pakistani rupee and reserves will get big relief.
Destitute for every penny and struggling with severe financial crunch Pakistan After brokering the war, Iran is now hoping to get bailout from America. In fact, Pakistan has recently demanded financial assistance of 10 billion dollars from America’s Finance Minister Scott Besant.
According to Reuters report, Pakistan has demanded financial assistance of $ 10 billion from the US Finance Minister through Bilateral Exchange Stabilization Support Facility and whose maturity is proposed to be kept for a maximum of five years.
Asked for help after lobbying to stop Iran war
Islamabad is seeking this help from America at a time when Pakistan is trying to recover from the effects of the most serious economic crisis of the last several decades, despite the ongoing bailout program of the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Moreover, this request has been made after Pakistan tried to mediate during the war between America and Iran. Because America-Pakistan tried to mediate to end the Iran war, this had a positive impact on its diplomatic profile and increased its expectations of economic help from America and its other partner countries.
Pakistan’s situation can improve with America’s help
If Pakistan’s request for financial assistance is accepted by US Finance Minister Scott Besant, then it can prove to be a big relief for Pakistan’s weak economy. According to Reuters, this will increase Pakistan’s reserves, reduce pressure on Pakistan’s rupee and reduce its dependence on multilateral finance. However, along with this, Pakistan will also have to continue strict fiscal and monetary policies under the IMF program.
At present, neither Pakistan nor America has issued any official statement on this issue. However, Pakistan Finance Minister Mohammad Aurangzeb said that in his meeting with Scott Besant this week, he raised the issue of risks to Pakistan’s economy due to regional geopolitical developments.
