Considering this guy got re-elected, there may be some overlap with American qualities here.

Sounds like the US’ chickens coming home to roost. After creating those conditions with their CIA elsewhere for decades.

They have suprisingly open hiring policies, unlike some American institutions under the current regime.

They’ve gotten friendlier with the West in the past few decades. The distrust is for good reason given history of Western foreign interference (colonialism) and the US having a close relationship with Pakistan pre Bin Laden.

In an open marketplace I’m afraid that is a competitive disadvantage Especially with a 1 in 3 approval rating.
