Bhai jaan
India has less incentives to make peace with Pakistan, hence, forget Modi, any Indian government will not make it a priority. Anyway, this debate belongs to a different thread.
On topic, Pakistan no matter what it does on economic reforms front...without peace with India, all the economic development and growth are just illusionary.
It is not about incentive.
It is about emotional outburst against a perceived lower caste country.
Bharati upper castes can think and treat Bharati Muslims as lower caste. Who can stop them.
But now they want to do the same with Pakistani Muslims
Not gonna happen
Hence the Bharati ruling elite's emotional diarrhea about Pakistan 24/7.
Pakistan works on war economy, it needs a constant conflict or war - either internal or external to keep it running.
@FaujHistorian is right when he says that pak fauj should start looking for conflict elsewhere namely the ME. Peace will be quite contra to how pakistan is built - i.e it's people and the country are there to service its army.
A constant threat perspective and a constant conflict is what keeps the wheels churning...Quite like how the US operates too.
As a country you are always beholden to your geography.
The region now known as modern day Pakistan has geography that has been thrust into war for decades and centuries.
British India suffered from the similar issues
Sikhs era saw the same
Mughals saw the same
and it is on an on and on.
you can call it a curse or a blessing. But it is a reality that Pakistanis (majority) have learned to live with.
Completely disagree with your statement to be a world player one doesn't need to stick their nose everywhere... lets first slove our own problems first
sometimes you solve problems at home by taking an action outside.
Infighting is never good and isolation is huge no no
Starting with our own backyard, of course.
which ever area is better for Pakistani interests
Nice! The sole super power spent a TRILLION dollars there and still can't find this elusive bird named "peace". So tell me Sir Historian, with Pakistan's VAST, IMMENSE, BOUNDLESS forex reserves that sit at a GRAND TOTAL of 17 Billion USD, how do you figure that our military will pay for its rations beyond three months?
Lets stick to economy, shall we?
That sole power made strategic blunders and economic mismanagement.
Doesn't mean that their initial steps were wrong. It is the follow through where they bungled up.
