    By far the most critical conversation taking place in American foreign policy circles. Listening to H.R. and Ambassador Haqqani's honest and incisive commentary makes me hopeful. Thank you for sharing this great conversation.

    There is no excuse for our ongoing ignorance of the significant importance of the histories, cultures and ethos of India, Pakistan, China and Central Asia. We have the finesse of an ignorant Gulliver stamping about over countries and civilizations expecting positive results.

    An extremely good informative discussion about Pakistan. Husein Haqqani gives an objective and thoughtful summary of Pakistan. Worth watching (or listening to).

    Haqqani is right. Pakistan has been confused about its identity since its inception. That’s because its founders didn’t really have a vision for enabling that country to prosper in a sustainable way and play a role as a responsible nation, regionally and globally. Pakistan always wants competition against India, but not in a friendly, healthy way. It’s like a kid with a complex who indulges in substances and bad company.

    "Serial gullibility". Great term.
    How about "Feckless, compromised leadership"?

    The ambassador's dictum for U.S. foreign relations can also be rephrased to apply to U.S. domestic relations. American citizens are not a problem for the federal government to solve. They are a community for government leaders to understand (and leave alone).

    Good discussion. Ambassador Haqqani is right that Pakistan always wants to compete against India because it does not understand its identity. It wanted a Muslim nation carved out of undivided India in 1947, but India has a Muslim minority almost as large as the entire population of Pakistan. It still demands Kashmir, but Kashmir has always been a part of India’s civilizational heritage for millennia and has not only Muslims, but a region like Jammu with a Hindu and Sikh majority, and a region like Ladakh with a Tibetan Buddhist majority. The erstwhile ruler of Kashmir signed a treaty of accession with India in 1948. Since 2019, Kashmir’s status of temporary autonomy ended, and it was fully integrated with the rest of India. But Pakistan still occupies parts of Kashmir.like Gilgit and Baltistan.
    Pakistan could not win a conventional war against India, and so uses jihadi terrorism to constantly attack India. It’s close partnership with China is aimed against India, their common enemy. But India has remained a stable, pluralist democracy for more than 70 years.

    As an Indian, allow me to convey my disappointment at the absence of any mention of the outcomes of each of those wars:p

    I don't quite get it. Even if the primary geopolitical objective was broad competition with India, wouldn't it still make sense to strive towards economic prosperity and thus provide for a stronger military?

    Jammu and Kashmir is not a disputed territory. Jammu and Kashmir is integral part of Republic of India , one of the 28 States and 8 Union Territories.
