Why The West Backs Musharraf

  • It believes that Musharraf is its only hope in Pakistan
  • He delivers in the war against terror, at least partially and under compulsion. They can’t be sure to achieve even this under his successors.
  • Both British and American troops are presently in Afghanistan. They need the Pakistan army’s cooperation. Musharraf ensures that.
  • No point complicating the situation in Pakistan which lies in the region already in a mess
  • Since the army calls the shots in Pakistan, Musharraf should continue to head it
