No. We are a failed, bankrupt country. We can't even make anything while Indians have managed to pull rickshaws all the way to Mars.

I am hardly ignorantr about all this but we are at cusp of a spectacular success in regional geo-politics. I am praying that Pakistan, Uzbeklistan, Turkmenistan, Iran, Tajikistan and Afghanistan can carve out a new destiny for the region. Just today a huge conferance is taking place in Tashkent...

I know they do. But that is how it is and you know it so rise above it since things are going our way.

@Dalit there is something called credibility. When you make a claim try always to have it grounded on some facts. Certainly do not base it on easily established half truths. You should know that 'bacha bazi' which for those who do not know is practice of pedophila and particulary using pretty...

I second the Mods here. Please @Dalit calm down. No need for angst particularly as things are panning out nicely. The proof of the pudding is in what is happening on the ground. Just relax and enjoy the moment. Just hope that out of this chaos a new order where trade, roads, rail and regional...

Today in Tashkent, Uzbekistan the Central and South Asia Conferance is taking place. PM Imran Khan has also been in discussions with President Ghani of Afghanistan. This really is good news as it brings all the neighbours together. Only talking and working together will bring peace between the...

And do not for a second fall for this Turkic versus Pashtun blah blah. Imran Khan, Erdogan, Shavkat of Uzbekistan etc will sort everything out. Just watch the events.

@Dalit do me a favour mate. What will happen will happen. The Turks are our brothers as well. Right now PM Imran Khan is chilling in Afghanistan and looks like his is really been given three star treatment by Uzbeks. We need Uzbeks, Turkmen, Tajiks, Chinese, Turkey and Iran to work together so...

How is that betrayal of Turks? Dostum only goes by dollars in his pocket. The best guarantor of Uzbeks in Afghanistan is Uzbekistan which is right next door.

What Pakistan went through for last 20 years I think you would have to be a cold son of *** to wish even on your enemies. I still think back to around 2010. US daily attacking targets in Pakistan using drones. TTP launching suicide attacks across all of Pakistan. Our poor soldiers and policemen...

Nobody can put a leash on them. 40 years of history demonstrates that. However I think PM IK does have some traction with these guys because he has for 20 years insisted that there was no military solution and the war would one day need a negotiated end. Certainly USA at that time were critical...

I have had the privilage to attend a fund raising event he hosted for Shaukat Khanum Cancer Hospital in 1992. Impressive person in persona and physique standing at 6'2'' tall. A Alpha male. The tragedy is he got into seat of power at age of 67 which means he has not much left in him. But still...

*Meeting also sought to get all of Afghanistan's neighbours - Pakistan, Iran, Turkemistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikstan and Turkey to work toward resolving the impending conflict in that country. This is great news because the solution lies in all the neighbours coming together to bring peace in a...

Great to see PM Imran Khan meeting the Uzbek President. Discussions revolved around Afghanistan, trade and possibility of a direct rail link between Pak-Uzbekistan. Huge potential for regional trade.

All this is rubbish. All China has to do is focus on the home market which will be the largest aviation market in the world. Once China has done that consolidated it can then target Asia and Africa with competitive products. This should be rather easy for China. Time and patience. Western...

There was a time not long ago you guys used to say Talban are stooge of Pakistani ISI and won't even take pee without a nod from Islamabad. Then there was the galactic warping 'Haqqani' network with it's Pentagon HQ inside Pakistan. All I can do is laugh now ....

Listen to PM Imran Khan's thoughts on Afghanistan.

No country is made up of one view. It was Musharaf who sold out our people. Thank god that disgusting person is gone. But I will tell you our present PM Imran Khan opposed the war in Afghanistan. Indeed he was called 'Taliban Khan' for his views. What matters is who is running the coountry now...

Factually incorrect. This is examply of facts being bent over time to suit a agenda. Mujihadeen was a generic name for all factions fighting the Soviet Russians as part of the Afghan 1980s jihad. This title covered the entire spectrum of jihadis and as you mentioned included what came be known...

Most of Afghanistan's trade with rest of the world s through Pakistan's seaports on the Arabian Sea and is covered by the ATT agreement. Two routes are used and both were being used for 20 years by US/NATO as supply lines and the airbridge ran over Pakistan. These are - 1. Spin Boldak which...
