“Between 2002-2010, Pakistan received approximately $18 billion in military and economic aid from the United States. In February 2010, the administration of U.S. President Barack Obama requested an additional $3 billion in aid, for a total of $20.7 billion. A significant proportion of U.S. economic aid for Pakistan has ended up in back in the U.S., as funds are channeled through large U.S. contractors. A U.S. lawmaker also said the majority of U.S. economic aid has not left the U.S. as it was spent on consulting fees and overhead cost.”
