The Afghan conflict ensures long-term engagement between Russia and Pakistan.
Terrorism, organized crime, drugs, nuclear safety, nonproliferation, and various
other issues will also call for closer cooperation between the two states.
Indeed, Moscow is paying greater attention to Pakistan than ever before
on doctrinal, expert, and practical levels. Russia’s priorities in South Asia are
clearly delineated, even if its approach to the region remains piecemeal.
In the future, Russia would benefit from a balanced and stable development
of Russian-Pakistani relations. In order to do so, Moscow should replace its
separate approaches to the countries of South Asia with
a unified concept of Russian policy in the region, which
would include its policy on Pakistan.
"Establishing a continuous informal and semiformal dialogue between Russian
and Pakistani representatives would increase transparency and confidence"
This Pakistan policy should support intensive dialogue
between the civil, military, and economic institutions of
Moscow and Islamabad on issues involving bilateral and
multilateral relations.
Regular exchange visits by the countries’
highest officials would be helpful in facilitating these
conversations. Establishing a continuous informal and
semiformal dialogue between Russian and Pakistani representatives
would increase transparency and confidence in the burgeoning
relationship. Moscow should actively use regional organizations and initiatives
to promote these various levels and forms of dialogue.
In addition, Russia should support Pakistan’s efforts to respond to security
threats on its territory politically, economically, and militarily. This support
can include cooperation on military technology
Russia and Pakistan: Shared Challenges and Common Opportunities
Promote intensive Russian-Pakistani dialogue.
Discussion between members
of civil, military, and economic institutions in both countries will help
further endeavors to deepen cooperation on a range of issues.
Enhance existing contacts between officials.
Increasing ties between representatives
of the Russian and Pakistani power structures will build trust,
promote transparency, and boost confidence in the developing relationship.
Help Pakistan respond to security threats on its territory.
Providing political,
economic, and military support will help Islamabad address security issues
before they threaten Moscow.
Reach out to the Pakistani public. (Wow may be large civilian projects??)
Informing the Pakistani audience of
Russian positions and projects in South Asia will help Moscow build trust
with regional countries and make its policy more transparent and predictable.
