| #3 If Pakistan is moved from the FATF’s grey list (being watched while it works to meet the checklist it was given in 2018) to the black list (Pakistan refuses to curb support of terror and must be punished), the result will be tough sanctions on its banks and a freeze on official and private money flows. Also, America will very likely cut off support and joint projects. And India will point and laugh, which is just about as humiliating. |
