This book explores Germanys political, economic, defence, nuclear and cultural relations as well as defence cooperation with and arms transfers to Pakistan from 1949 to the present day.
Pakistan shares a multidimensional relationship with the Federal Republic of Germany, which is its largest trading partner within the European Union and a significant donor. Drawing on extensive English and German language source material, including declassified documents of the German Foreign Office, this book reveals for the first time details of conversations between Pakistani and German leaders and officials. Filling a long-felt gap in the available literature on Europe-South Asia relations, this well-researched book examines mutual perceptions, the complexity, the elements of convergence and divergence as well as the challenges and prospects of Germanys relations with Pakistan.
This book will be a valuable contribution to the field of International Relations, International History, as well as Pakistans and Germanys foreign policies.
