One would need to utilise the grey matter to comprehend, nowhere did i mention the return of Taliban nor do i have any sympathy for these scum bags, perception is that post 2014, Pakistan will make sure the regime in Kabul is in no way hostile towards Islamabad.....the ground reality that some seem oblivious to is that like Nepal, Afghanistan is land locked thus has to rely on the neighbouring states and India doesn't share a common border with the subject, like in Nepal, China is also making a foothold in Afghanistan...once the cookie crumbles, what are the options left for India. !!
What exactly do you mean by the highlighted part if not to imply that using proxy's against the current govt in Kabul would be the way to bully Afghanistan? Mind you as long as Iran exists...Afghans will always have an alternate supply route to the seas...
Halting trade? for a soft spot the Afghans have towards Indians?
What about your own trade routes to CARs?
Pakistan cannot weild its once successful strategy of supporting Taliban to pressure Afghanistan as well since the Americans and NATO have drawn down their troops NOT abandoned their presence....
It is Pakistan that needs to get innovative past 2014.....not the other way around...
