Bangladesh’s FM had the audacity to ask US to legalize Bangladeshi illegal immigrants but scoffs at legalizing Rohingyas. Hypocrisy at its finest. Nevertheless, why is Bangladesh seeking a WB loan, in the first place? It’s strong financial position should enable to bypass WB altogether.

Is China essentially saying that they miss Trump? :p:

This is just China trying to get more attention by claiming there was a cyberattack on its online petition.

Pakistan continues to blame India for its problems in Afghanistan. :coffee: It's possible the problem lies with the Taliban. They want full control of Afghanistan. The US has no interest in joining BRI, which CPEC is part of. Its actions and words have made this abundantly clear. How many...

Why does Pakistan think Iran will cooperate with them in the region, specifically Afghanistan?

India knew the US was leaving Afghanistan since Trump was POTUS, so it should not come as a surprise. India even refused to send troops at Trump’s request. Besides why should US risk its interests to serve India‘s interests in Afghanistan?

Chineee complaints about discrimination — of any stripe — in the United States will fall on deaf ears, but they do get points for effort.

The Chinese don't tend to respond like that. I'm sure there's a Sun Tzu quote that will apply here.

Whatever China does with India is between them, but this doesn't absolve Pakistan of its security lapses. China is very angry with Pakistan.

The biggest lie ever told by the communists and their supporters are that US embargo/sanctions are the sources of Cuba's ills and that socialism is not to blame. They also forget to mention that Cuba was heavily subsidized, first, by the Soviet Union and later by Venezuela. The country has been...

You will know when the pipeline project is happening when Putin arrives in Pakistan to finalize it with his signature.

Bond of brotherhood? I think you are overstating your case. Hope you are right, but I have my doubts.

Don't underestimate India. And the Taliban are not Pakistan's friends. It's going to get interesting.

Undoubtedly, we will be seeing an endless stream of articles, books, and documentaries about America's (mis)adventures in Afghanistan. All will benefit from the luxury of hindsight.

Qualitative issues aside, the Indian military has always been underestimated, especially by Pakistan. How many wars does Pakistan need to lose to realize this truth? And how will Turkey change this fact? Don't they have their hands full already? The Turkey of today is not the Ottoman Empire of...

They already are. If the Taliban have half a brain, they will keep their options open.

If China and Pakistan think they can just hide behind their borders and avoid dealing with Afghanistan, that's just delusional. Both of these countries wanted the US out of Afghanistan and now, when the moment has arrived, wants nothing to do with the country. Sorry, but it's your problem now.

Turkey is a threat to India? :rofl:

Why do Pakistanis assume the Taliban are on their side? The Taliban are no one side aside from their own. Just because Pakistan offered the Taliban sanctuary and refuge doesn't mean anything. Afghans gladly took US weapons to fight the Soviets, only to attack the Americans over a decade later...

You forgot to mention the millions lost to the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution. One wonder if CPC is remembering these events while celebrating their 100th anniversary.
