Sure, rules can be broken and consequences will follow.

The world is not a fair place. The rich countries make rules that poor countries are coerced to comply with :undecided:

Foreign Minister Bilawal's response to this development is mature, befitting and proportional 👍

This could get Pakistan sanctioned. Perhaps that is what you are shooting for :laugh:

President Biden is from the cold war era. Americans with ideals that are shaped by this history are typically said to favor Pakistan. There is even a famously quoted exchange between Obama and Biden where Biden says that Pakistan is infinitely a more important ally than Afghanistan (during the...

I think this is the IPP deal that Imran was not able to roll back during his visit to China. Is that right?

I think Russia will find ways to bootleg components that are under sanction for import. Plenty of traitors and thieves in the western world to help the Russians :undecided:

Put this guy within a 1000 meters of Putin :D

Seems like PM Shehbaz is forced to roll back on some untenable promises that were made to China by the previous administration. :undecided: This is a big one! :big_boss:

It will likely take a few weeks or even months for the money to be mobilized. I don't think that this time lag is something that the government can hasten. The administration has done well to highlight the catastrophe and secure the pledges in the first place :cheers:

On the contrary, they have pledged unprecedented support with billions of USD to Pakistan. The total assistance from multilateral agencies will likely exceed $5 billion. :cheers:

In my view, there was never a period that India had anymore or less determination than what it has to today to keep as much of Kashmir in its control as possible. The territory that the Indian side managed to control in '47 is still more or less deprived from Pakistan. In fact, Siachen has been...

The current status quo in LoC is certainly an improvement from the past. But this does not mean that the Kashmir issue is resolved. Resolution signals finality, which is not what we have right now. Borders can flare up anytime and tensions may rise. PM Shehbaz is many times more critical than...

Kashmir issue is not resolved so long as India and Pakistan publish official maps with claims and counter claims on held and occupied territory in the region. :coffee:

Ukrainian gov. and diplomats should have been smart enough to ignore Elon Musk's recent troll tweets about 'peace deal'. It would have been forgotten easily. The knee jerk response from President Zelensky and his diplomats is a display of immaturity in the administration. Dealing with trolls and...

Regardless of what Bangladeshi immigrants to UK think about Indians, the UK government can choose to deal with India or not at its own terms. It is not like UK went into the negotiations with India for India's well being and nothing for the Brits to gain :coffee:

A pipeline between Iran and Pakistan is not seen to be economically feasible given Pakistan's energy appetite in near future. Indian participation is expected to make the project economically feasible because of the higher demand from Indian market. :pop:

Labor mobility is important for India. India's most profitable export is the export of human resource in service industry. This is not just in tech or GCC space but will permeate in all sectors of western society. UK or any other country that enters into a trade deal with India will have to...

Tweets are generated from other countries about India as well. It is not germane to my opinion on this heckling trend.
