Inscription reads For Bob Oakley, With warmest regards and genuine appreciation for all your help in preparing this book, which made it far better that it would otherwise have been. Dennis Kux July 2001. Robert Bigger Oakley (March 12, 1931 – December 10, 2014) was an American diplomat whose 34-year career included appointments as United States Ambassador to Zaire, Somalia, and Pakistan and, in the early 1990s, as a special envoy during the American involvement in Somalia. Oakley was named as U.S. Ambassador to Pakistan in August 1988. Oakley spent this role supporting Benazir Bhutto's new democratic government after the 1988 general election and coordinating operations between the Central Intelligence Agency and the Inter-Services Intelligence in the Afghanistan conflict. He took office at a time when U.S.-Pakistan relations were becoming strained over the Pakistani nuclear weapons program, which Oakley believed was being used to force concessions from the United States, and a cut-off in U.S. aid to Pakistan because of the invocation of the Pressler Amendment. Dennis H. Kux (born August 11, 1931) is a diplomat and former Ambassador to Côte d'Ivoire. He is the author of India and the United States: Estranged Democracies and The United States and Pakistan, 1947-2000: Disenchanted Allies.
