Trump reiterates offer to mediate Kashmir dispute; India insists it's a bilateral issue

It was BJP which was dealing with Musharraf back then on Kashmir issue, so this self concocted ideas that Indian government will not last a day if it compromise on its stated public policy is just mere hogwash. Connect what Trump said about Modi request for mediation with IK saying BEFORE Indian elections that he is hoping for Modi win to see progress on Kashmir issue, it will become clear.
You have missed the wood for the trees

Speaking directly with Mush is differs from mediation by the third party

That's was not what I was trying to imply, the thrust of the argument was, if BJP can negotiate with a dictator , someone who planned Kargil conflict, and came very close to the resolution of Kashmir issue, with eventual referendum in Kashmir part of the plan, despite of stated public stance about Kashmir being non negotiable, the talk of BJP not lasting a day and Indian public opinion is tbh , pure BS.
 
maybe they got Pakistan in their crosshair as well.
Can we please not indulge in conspiracy theories. You live in UK, you should know that is rubbish. People belonging to our community are mayors of London, home secretary of UK and others occupy positions of power in Britain. In US the richest Pakistani, Shahid Khan made his fortune. Our own PMIK was toasted as a hero in UK through the 1980s and 1990s. They don't have Pakistan in the cros hairs. They have self interest in their cross hairs. The trick is to see if we can find areas of convergence with them ~ that is where our self interests meets their self interest.


he "Chinese card" if there was any, the validity of it should have come out in open after the Doklam spanking India receive at the hands of Chinese. India would never challenge China even if it ever wanted to , simply due to the disparity between the two countries. China is a bogeyman India use to get goodies from West, to be used against Pakistan. If western strategist are playing along all this time, then perhaps they are either naïve
I think you touched something important. It is possible that US has realized [think the British knew this all along and did not go head first for India but kept Pakistann also in their thoughts] now that they invested too much into the idea that India can offset China. That realization might now be emerging in Washington. It's not that India is pivot state in Pacific Asia, it is but Pakistan in it's own way is also pivotal in West Asia. although smaller then India it still is a large country. So the US might adopt a more nuanced policy where they depend on India but also engage with Pakistan.

I think Pakistan needs to keep USA and west as cultivated as possible so that it can extract the most out of the Sino-Western rivalry. If Pakistan loses the west entirely it will become a Chinese dependent and that will reduce it's ability to bargain with China.

You are gullible.

The man who is responsible for more Pakistani citizens death then OBL can even dream off, lives in the posh and expensive Edgware area of London. All Baluch terrorists who are directly involved in terrorism against citizens of Pakistan lives openly in west!

We don't need to play west against China and vice versa. We were the bridge which was used by America and China to come close and we can do the same now as well. Get benefit with both while making interdependencies with all.
 
Cool. Let me know when that happens.
When it happens or does it happen at all, i dont know but will say this nobody in India ever thought about US president making such stance and than repeating it again as well. Modi's silence is deafening as well.

Yes. He should be doing much much more. Keeping Pakistanis in the dark on the issue will be detrimental to the Nations morale in this war.
You want him to declare war on India?
 
Kashmir is a nuclear flashpoint of the 21st century.

Trump, Khan and Modi have the popular support in their respective countries to avert this nuclear tragedy.

We must give peace a chance and human development in the region.
India is a superpower. They dont want peace.
 
Ok. So when are you coming to Pakistan to be part of this war than?

I will Post the airticket here once war is declared.

You Think IMF PM will declare war for poor Citizens being bombed with Cluster bombs?

And you are a hypocrite who wants blood of Pakistanis and Kashmiris while comfortably sitting outside. Shame on you.
And the bombs on Kashmir have been dropped for many decades while IK only employed the office a year ago. So what are you ranting about and where were you for the last decade and more?
