But besides that, even if your nation is doing imperialist things surely you would agree that maintaining an army to not get your country absolutely destroyed by any other country at any time is valid
I can’t find any solid evidence for this Pakistan claim. I see that an anonymous source reached out to one outlet, but I haven’t found anything to corroborate
Seems a bit tenuous thus far. Do you have any evidence you’ve seen in particular?
tldr: Pakistan wanted to stay neutral on Russia-Ukraine, America wanted to give their mortar shells to Ukraine. Imran Khan said no. America overthrew Imran khan, got him arrested and installed a military dictatorship.
In the recent election people in Pakistan still voted Imran Khan, the military government backed by America just ignored it.
What imperialism is America doing currently?

The biggest new one right now is Pakistan but all the old ones such as DRC too of course
And you know… Israel…
In what world are those imperialist projects? Can you qualify that in some way? Let’s go with 1, say Pakistan
Pakistan has their government overthrown by an American backed military dictatorship to give mortar shells to Ukraine.
DRC gets supplied with weapons by America for its internal wars.
