Overall a balanced video.. couldn't blame Pakistan for trying in the early 90s and even managed success by having a more friendly Taliban govt than the hostile Najeebullah govt..
But then the politics of the Middle East and beyond came to the region..
Sorry for a country that is dependent on the IMF it is a misplaced priority

South Asians are obsessed with superpowerdom.
To cut long story short Pakistan botched it by promoting lunatics that scared off the central Asians and these lunatics turned on Pakistan too.
- Pakistan used Islamism post 71 as a source of cohesion among its diverse populace, 71 was seen as failure of secularism.
- Same ideology could have been used for post soviet states for the same purpose as states were looking for an ideology.
- Pakistan was well positioned to build its influence in post soviet states, and to do so it needed favourable conditions in Afghanistan. To achieve that Pakistan promoted jihadism and Taliban which backfired.
There is truth to the assertion that Pakistan tried to position itself as the bullwark for Central Asian trade and security - but it’s over indulging and misuse of religion in state and social matters will keep it from ever becoming an attractive economic or security partners.

As far Pakistan, Both economic development and regional politics can go side by side..
You the indyan in the garb of american are sans shame.
USA owes $ 1.3 trillion in debt to China (not mentioning Japan, and Brazil yet). Forget IMF for Pakistan, you'd be needing good offices of Pakistan to reschedule america's Chinese debt.
