America's image in Pakistan is poor, with just 17% offering a favorable view of the U.S. Roughly six-in-ten consider the U.S. an enemy. Moreover, support for U.S. involvement in the fight against extremists in Pakistan has waned in the past year, and Pakistanis show little support for the war in neighboring Afghanistan.

Pakistanis' worries about their neighbor and longtime rival India continue.  More express concern about the external threat from India than about the internal threat posed by extremist groups. Still, most Pakistanis say they want better relations with both India and the U.S.
