To terminate the designation of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan as a major non-NATO ally, and for other purposes.
Summary
H.R. 94 would terminate Pakistan's designation as a major non-NATO ally, a status that currently provides benefits such as access to excess U.S. defense supplies and participation in cooperative defense research and development projects. If enacted, this change would eliminate these military and defense cooperation advantages that Pakistan currently enjoys under this designation.
The bill would also establish conditions for any future redesignation of Pakistan as a major non-NATO ally. The President would be prohibited from restoring this status unless the country certifies that Pakistan has taken specific actions against the Haqqani Network, a Taliban-affiliated militant group. These required actions would include continuing military operations against the group and prosecuting its leaders. This bill is currently in committee and has not yet been voted on by the full House.
