Re: 2014 - What should we do regarding Afghanistan
CM, as you know know, geopolitics is a different beast than personal preferences. The fact is that we can not continue to have to worry about both Indian and Afghan borders. The Indian “consulates” dotting the Afghan landscape. For example, the average American hates Pakistan, the current administration hates Pakistan, yet they have to deal with us due to the geostrategic concerns.
Afghanistan’s problems today (extremism, refugees), become Pakistan’s problems tomorrow. I am calling for Pakistan to support any and all elements that will ensure peace between the two nations.
