    Turks what you see are issues with Pakistan as country and society

    Interesting thread and discussion... I am going to be as frank as possible in my responses. Erdogan brand of politics is very politics-first...almost to exclusion of everything else. Maybe early on he figured he wouldn't be in power this long, because there was great window for him to put in...

    Foreign and defence ministers of India, Australia, Indonesia to meet amid concerns over China

    My projection is mostly if China keeps continuing on current trajectory. If it simmers/settles down, then there is scope for balance again....but I personally don't see it as too likely as they are getting a hammering on various things now....and they (CCP) cling to middle kingdom complex doggedly.

    India India - China Relations

    Mirage 2000 have their role and place for sure, but they are backbone only for some kind of missions I would say. Multipurpose wise (esp given the numbers in IAF), really the MKI will be the one doing everything from bomb trucking, SEAD and air-air EW and engagement.

    'Is this how Pakistan will be run?' SC chides federal government over KE's failings

    Does K-electric have a monopoly in power supply to Karachi? Does it operate in only Karachi or all of Sindh?

    Foreign and defence ministers of India, Australia, Indonesia to meet amid concerns over China

    I would say so, even likely sometime this decade. It is a massive country of high significance in the larger region and world (esp if you look at its population, growing economy and geographic relevance). The Quad definitely would want Indonesia as close on their side as possible even if it...

    IAF is key to India’s ‘deterrence by punishment’ plan against China. Now to wait for winter https://theprint.in/opinion/iaf-key-to-indias-deterrence-by-punishment-plan-against-china/494600/ China knows PLAAF doesn’t match IAF, and is strengthening its air defence along LAC. The government’s...

    IMO The Germans made a mistake to not concentrate the paratroopers into one crystallized landing zone and do the appropriate concentrated and well-timed prep air-assault on that landing zones major defenses. It ran quite contrary to how they did fall gelb ardennes punch ironically and is...
