Revealed: Pakistan’s Plot to Drag The US Back Into Afghanistan | The Afghan Eye Podcast
Episode 1
Friday, 16 January, 2026

In the opening episode of Season 3 of The Afghan Eye Podcast, host Sangar Paykhar is joined by analyst Ahmed-Waleed Kakar to examine newly disclosed US lobbying records that raise serious questions about Pakistan’s intentions toward Afghanistan. The episode analyses documents filed under the US Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), revealing that Pakistan has retained a Washington lobbying firm to advance proposals linked directly to Afghanistan, counterterrorism cooperation, and regional security. The Afghan Eye argues that these disclosures substantiate longstanding claims that Pakistan’s military establishment is seeking to internationalise its tensions with Afghanistan and draw the United States back into the region.
