Dug this up, very interesting, provides an all around summary of his tenure.
Not sure if this is already on PDF, I tried looking for it.
In any case there are some brief comments on Iran too that made me want to dig it up.
I believe this man did what he did for his nation and not himself...
Mahathir was the most vocal on the Kashmir issue for along with Pakistan, he stated that India had invaded Kashmir, and look how he was repaid. Dont think an apology will be enough. Pulling out of the summit is probably the worst decision made in 2019.
imo I doubt the Chinese government ever liked NS due to his shear incompetence
but its possible that they are not particularly fond of Imran Khan due to his desire for transparency (doubt Chinese government rolls like that) and reduction in debt/anti slave mentality
I do believe they prefer...
Hi Guys, I found this episode on a podcast (War College) that I have been listening to. Came across this episode on Kashmir, worth a listen, if you like this kind of stuff like me. Its in English btw.

(Correct me if I am wrong) In my opinion fixed wing air support will not suite Pakistan's doctrine and for good measure. In my opinion air support from jets is much more destructive to infrastructure, environment and has substantial negative physiological effects. This is largely due to the...
China’s Lunar New Year celebration is in full swing, and a new Hong Kong blockbuster film is hitting theaters just in time for the height of movie season: Operation Red Sea, described by the state-run Global Times as “a patriotic movie about Chinese marines carrying out a daring rescue mission.”...
Apologise I do not know how to properly use the quote tool. My (Ballal) responses are in bold.
Russia is rising and asserting itself
What evidence do you have for this ?
.....they have a foreign policy that is actively countering American influence...America is rapidly firing up the...
