An op-ed in The Hill quoted CGD president Nancy Birdsall on U.S. assistance to Pakistan.
From the article:
"Second, average Pakistanis are more concerned about high inflation (40 percent) and unemployment (20 percent), than terrorism (13 percent), according to another IRI poll. The U.S. Congress could help Pakistan’s economy in a variety of ways, including through granting duty-free access to the U.S. market, as Nancy Birdsall at the Center for Global Development has argued."
