No. I was not aware of that.
My study, such as it has been, started from Soviets entering Afghanistan and the circumstances preceding that.
That said, unless supporting Taliban was a revenge act(which it was not), it is not related to the current scenario. Pakistan has supported Taliban in Afghanistan. The talibs destroyed Afghanistan and its economy. Naturally the burden of refugees falls on Pakistan.
If Pakistan had not gotten involved in Afghan affairs, it would have been a relatively more prosperous nation today and not a burden on Pakistan.
@
RescueRanger I respect you as a great poster. I dont really expect you to reply like that.
But since you choose this particular logic, then let me use a similar analogy.
Pakistan and Pakistani's have not lived in Bangladesh for more than 27 years, yet still the Pakistan National Assembly passes resolutions on Bangladeshi affairs and Pakistani politicians like Imran Khan, Jammat leaders comment on issues of internal affairs of Bangladesh.
Afghanistan is
much closer to India than Bangladesh is to Pakistan. And India has historical and ancient relations with Afghanistan.
So my dear friend, by the same token of logic, India and Indians have rights to ask questions and lecture anyone on Afghan affairs. It affects us.
