Read the blog and I’ve responded to this point. Why would India not deny weapons to its enemy using whatever influence it has in the west? And why should this come as surprise? Or for that matter should be something we as Indians should feel bad about?
If we go by history, Pakistan has been known in 47, 65 and 99 to aggress against India. A lot of that has to do with being emboldened by American support during the Cold War and arms supply of top notch American weaponry.
Denying arms to Pakistan then actually prevents an arms race and serves as a diplomatic deterrence. So pretty sure I understand and agree with Mr. Chagla and the Indian govts approach to appeal Americans to curb arms exports to Pakistan.
It’s a matter of perspective. We think Pakistan should not be emboldened to believe that it can aggress against other states piggy backed on American arms sales.
Hegemony?
I want to understand this point Pakistanis keep harping about.
What exactly do you believe India wants to achieve here?
Maintaining Kashmir as our land is hegemony? How or when has India used its military to bully Nepal or BD? Can you shed light on this?
If we wanted to bully you, we would not have a defensive approach to our nuclear policy. We wouldn’t be investing so heavily in defensive weapons such as PAD and S-400.
On the other hand, Pakistan has made it a point to create offensive weapons that can be a nuclear trigger such as the NASR. LR Cruise missiles. All offensive weapons, NOT Defensive!
None of this shows that Pakistan wants peace, more that it wants to inflict damage to a point that it leads to nuclear war.
How much has Pakistan invested in an indegenous air defense system? Why hasn’t Pakistan researched or tested in an indigenous ballistic missile defense program? Wouldn’t that be an indication of your defensive posture?
Why cruise missiles and offensive Tactical ballistic missiles instead?
Why are your nukes pointed at India? Why not use a no first use policy?
Your words don’t match your actions Sir, which is why it’s hard to take this blog or your comments here seriously.
This is the problem with your vadic history, its purely based on fairy tales along with flying monkey warriors and what not.
47 - Pakistan sent military against the King of Kashmir, not India. India did the same in Hyderabad and even invaded Goa
65- Pakistan launched an invasion against disputed Kashmir, we did not violate Indian territory. India on the other hand went straight for Lahore which is not disputed territory.
99- Again, disputed territory, Just like India made a unilateral move against Siachen
you people are fed so many lies that you can't tell the difference between fact and fiction.
The embarrassing part is like a child insisting Santa is real to adults, you forget that we don't posses low IQ like you people.
IMO preventing arm sales to pakistan is more effective than buying weapons to fight pakistan
This will never work since we have already started to produce indigenous weapons and we will always have China to fill the gap.
All this does is reduce our dependence on western weapon.
remember, it was the Pakistani/Chinese JF-17 that shot down those IAF planes.
