Bhutto's foreign policy

Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, the former Prime Minister of Pakistan, pursued a foreign policy focused on non-alignment and strengthening Pakistan's sovereignty. He aimed to improve relations with China and the Muslim world while balancing ties with the United States and the Soviet Union. Bhutto emphasized regional cooperation, particularly with neighboring countries, and was an advocate for nuclear capabilities, viewing it as essential for national security. His approach was shaped by Pakistan's geopolitical context, striving for economic development and political stability through diplomatic engagement and strategic partnerships.
