 The early years of Pakistan's independence were marked by
the dominance of issues and conflicts with India.
 The problems between Pakistan and India were largely a
result of the partition process outlined in the 3rd June
1947 Plan and the Indian Independence Act of July 1947.
 Various issues arose from the partition process, including
the division of funds, assets, arms, and equipment of the
British Indian government.
 The outbreak of the first Kashmir war in 1947-48 intensified
the hostilities between the two nations.
 Statements from Indian leaders, including those from the
ruling Congress party, expressed regret over the
establishment of Pakistan and even discussed the
reunification of India and Pakistan
Prepared By: KASHAN ATTIQ
Relations with Afghanistan

sovereignty over NWFP and Baluchistan.
 Afghanistan wanted those areas for themselves or
wanted independence(pathans and pushtuns).
 India agreed with Afghanistan against Pakistan.
This made Pakistan worried about its borders.
 The Soviet Union supported Afghanistan against
Pakistan. This increased the threat of a military
attack on Pakistan.

 China demonstrated a deep understanding of the
reasons behind Pakistan's alignment with the
Western countries.
 China showed a remarkable understanding of the
factors that motivated Pakistan to join the Western
camp.
 Pakistan, despite China's understanding, kept a
cautious or safe distance from China.
 Pakistan's policy leaned more toward the U.S.
perspective. In certain diplomatic matters,
Pakistan may have sided with the views of the
United States over those of China..
Prepared By: KASHAN ATTIQ
Relations with Iran
 In the first few years after Pakistan was created in
1947, it worked on making friends with
neighboring countries, including Iran.
 Pakistan and Iran were like neighbors who had
similar interests. They both wanted to be friends
and work together on things that mattered to
them.
 They decided to do business together. They signed
agreements to trade and help each other
economically.
 Sometimes, they didn't agree on everything. They
argued about sharing water from a river called
Indus, but they tried to talk and find a solution.
Prepared By: KASHAN ATTIQ
Relations with USA and USSR
 The United States welcomed Pakistan's
establishment, and ambassadorial relations
resumed in February 1948
 The Soviet Union initially had an indifferent
attitude, and diplomatic relations were established
in April 1948. However, the first ambassador took
his position in Moscow in December 1949.
 In June 1949, an opportunity to improve Soviet-
Pakistani relations arose with an invitation to
Pakistan's Prime Minister, Liaquat Ali Khan.
 However, the visit did not happen, and Liaquat Ali
Khan visited the United States in May 1950 instead.
