Abstract :The article “The role of Pakistan in the military operations conducted by the United States in Afghanistan in the fight against terrorism” explores U.S. assistance to Pakistan in the fight against terrorism. The article begins on the importance of Afghanistan for the Islamic Republic of Pakistan geostrategically and politically. It then provides a historical overview of the development of US-Pakistan relations from Pakistan\\\'s independence in 1948 until the events of September 11, 2001. The following describes the U.S. government\\\'s negotiations with the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and the U.S. diplomatic victory in gaining such an important regional ally during the war in Afghanistan. The article examines how this has affected US-Pakistan efforts to combat terrorism. Also significant were the U.S. airstrikes on Pakistani territory and the reactions to these events, particularly the importance of the elimination of “Al-Qaeda” leader Osama bin Laden in Pakistan on May 2, 2011. It concludes by summarising Pakistan\\\'s desire and awareness of the importance of alliance with the US in the developments in Afghanistan.
