Looks like Gen Durrani has left world of current affairs and chosen to be more of philosopher than being proponent of realpolitik. Poor “assessment” as he would say. 👎🏿
At heart of this whole fiasco is IK/Bajwa in #Phase1 sitting in lap of megalomaniac MBS. Gleefully accepted all the economic benefits including MOU on key investments including $20bn oil refinery. In same period #Pulwama & #Balakot took place in which Saudi FM played crucial role
Then came real deal breaker #5August actions of Modi in J&K. Pakistan expected fierce response from OIC and kingdom but it was their own naivety. Kingdom understands geopolitical significance of India vis-à-vis IndoPacific and diversification of its own economy.
Custodians remember commitment of then army chief regarding Yemen conflict but drama of parliament was done by civil-military leadership. So if you’re going to give lollipop of Parliament debate to Royals regarding Yemen yet expect full support in Kashmir (72 yr old dispute)
Our biggest problem has always been strategic miscalculation regarding our own place and worth first in the neighbourhood then globally. Until we understand i see nothing changing. Our own self created ups & downs will continue. #MirrorCheck
