US congressman calls for Pakistan’s largest province to secede, sparking latest conflict - The Washington Post

ISLAMABAD — A U.S. congressman has sparked outrage in Pakistan by calling for the secession of the country’s largest province, further complicating Washington’s efforts to resuscitate its vital anti-terrorism alliance with Islamabad.

Representative Dana Rohrabacher, a Republican from California, proposed a nonbinding resolution last week stating that the Baluch people, who live in Pakistan’s Baluchistan province and also in parts of Iran and Afghanistan, “have the right to self-determination and to their own sovereign country.”

pakistan is a corrupt and poor country but it has proven when there is a serious threat to it it can overcome the odds and the military is capable of kicking some serious *** when push comes to shove the swat victory is just one example.

Relax...

"The Obama administration has rejected Rohrabacher’s call for an independent Baluchistan, which received little attention in the U.S., and explained it does not control the actions of congressmen."

Pakistan will have a really hard time if republicans came to power in next election.

 

[debottam]

On the contrary the opposite will happen. Historically it's the democrats who have given Pakistan a hard time. So don't get too excited. This is a one off case.

I hope Baluchistan remain with Pakistan. The new map of less 44 percent is not good.

the bill wont pass........the foreign-funded terrorism in Balochistan will go on unabated, until we approach it 2 pronged


a.) address the social issues in the Province

b.) boost ground intelligence, and do better job to monitor the activity of the enemy supporting terrorist groups in B-stan
