Spoken like a true RSS terrorist.

This is diplomat speech... the most he means India wont recognize taliban govt.
India cant do anything we have no sea or land connection available. Iranian road is too trechrous and iranian blackmails will be too costly.

I agree. Good a see a sane comment by an Indian on this forum. Rarity these days.

India will never accept outcome in Afghanistan decided by force: Jaishankar
India has been increasingly concerned by a massive surge in violence in Afghanistan, including the Taliban’s campaign to capture districts in rural areas and crucial border crossings. It has repeatedly called for an immediate ceasefire and resumption of intra-Afghan talks

India is working with the world community to push political negotiations to find a lasting solution to the conflict in Afghanistan and will never accept any outcome decided through the use of force, external affairs minister S Jaishankar said on Thursday.

There was a very detailed discussion on the situation in Afghanistan with visiting US secretary of state Antony Blinken on Wednesday and there is “a very strong convergence” in the positions of India and the US on this issue, Jaishankar said while answering a question in the Rajya Sabha or upper house of Parliament.

“We were very clear that there must be a negotiated political settlement in Afghanistan, that there cannot be a military solution, there cannot be a takeover by use of force in Afghanistan, that we will work with the international community to ensure that political negotiations for a settlement are pursued seriously and we would never accept any outcome which is decided by force,” he said.

He was responding to a question from BJP lawmaker Swapan Dasgupta on China’s apparent efforts to prop up the Taliban. A Taliban delegation led by chief political negotiator Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar met Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi on Wednesday, the first high-level engagement between the two sides since the US began withdrawing its troops from Afghanistan.

India has been increasingly concerned by a massive surge in violence in Afghanistan, including the Taliban’s campaign to capture districts in rural areas and crucial border crossings. It has repeatedly called for an immediate ceasefire and resumption of intra-Afghan talks to find a settlement.

Responding to another question from Samajwadi Party lawmaker Rewati Raman Singh on whether human rights and democracy had figured in his talks with Blinken, Jaishankar said the two sides had a “good discussion” on global issues such as human rights, democracy, trafficking and big tech

Jaishankar said he had highlighted that India’s approach to such issues is guided by a “quest for a perfect union”, though the government also seeks to “right historical wrongs”.

This was an apparent reference to the enactment of laws such as the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and Jaishankar had made a similar comment at his joint media interaction with Blinken on Wednesday.

Jaishankar said the issue of freedom should not be treated as “non-governance or as abdication of responsibilities”. He added, “We believe that our conversations on this subject should be balanced, we also feel that we should have the same standards when we look at the issues and that all conversations should be fact-based.”

The minister also defended India’s participation in the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue or Quad, a grouping that includes Australia, Japan and the US, in the face of criticism from China while responding to more questions.

“Let me make it very clear that when it comes to our relations with the US, Quad [and] Indo-Pacific, these are all our national choices which serve our national interests. We look at Quad as a platform where four countries have come together for the good of the world, who are discussing a range of issues from making and providing vaccines to education and connectivity to maritime security,” he said.

Any narrative about the Quad not based on reality will never gain traction, and India’s work with international partners “will help deal with many regional and global challenges”, he said.

Its not India place to decide what happens in Afghanistan so plain and simple get lost and "take your terror networks with you". World had enough of your bull shit.

 

[Dalit]

Does anyone care about Indian acceptance? India is irrelevant as far as Afghanistan is concerned.

 

[Goenitz]

If indians think 71 was easy, I urge Pak government to let IA pass Khyber pass. Also, not to disturb the supply line. Let IA show how brave and skilful they are.

On topic: India is distancing itself now as like previously, only Pakistan and few other countries may recognise IEA. So it is best for our interest to let US companies business through CPEC. It can be minerals/oils/gas etc. If US accepts Taliban, then then west and India will follow. Apple/Amazon/Tesla would die for abundant Lithium from Afghanistan.

Yes india … what will you do about it ?….

send in the IAF who will make fake surgical strikes and bombing runs…?

China and Russia have pretty much accepted who will be in charge… and Indian masters ie US and UK threw in the towel.

India doesn't even border Afghanistan, what can it do about Afghanistan?

Make TV shows and scream at Pakistan.

 

[Trailer23]

Here's something our Indian Members still haven't been able to explain...

At one point they have been labelling the Taliban 'Terrorist' for the past 2 decades.

On the other hand they've been making attempts to getting into a dialogue with the Taliban through Iran.

And on the flipside they are claiming that they will NEVER accept the outcome in Afghanistan.

Seems to me that they already know the game in over & are now crying 'WOLF'*.

*Wolf = Pakistan

 

[Easy When]

Chabahar investment down the plug hole too.

 

[Aburayyan]

Your Jaishankar said, "India will never accept outcome in Afghanistan decided by force"

I ask, "What will or can India do about it?"

Send it's military to change the outcome? What the F can India really do?

The answer, nothing..... Zilch. All it can do is what it does best and that is, "FART IN THE AIR".

I ll put it in short R@ndi rona.

This is diplomat speech... the most he means India wont recognize taliban govt.
India cant do anything we have no sea or land connection available. Iranian road is too trechrous and iranian blackmails will be too costly.

Iran dont wanna loose multi billion chinese investment for road shitters...

 

[Cheepek]

This is new, and it came after US-India meet where Afghanistan was an agenda. Jaishankar is a career diplomat and understands quite well each word in diplomacy has a weight.

I think India & US want a power sharing model in Afghanistan, as stated. The fact that he is confident now to state the above can only mean that there is a significant understanding among them that it's not going to be a cakewalk for Taliban.
Apart from power, Taliban is vying for legitimacy. How many countries would support a Taliban government in Afghanistan, and at what incentive?

If India involves in Afghanistan it’s going to be hindukush part 2: the nukening

Who gives an F to what india accepts or not. India is irrelevant.
