The US brokered Pak-Afghan-Transit-Trade-Agreement (PATTA) on July 19, 2010 allowing transportation of Afghan goods through Wagah to India and in return Pakistan getting permission to use Afghan territory for trade with Central Asian Republics (CARs). The US twisted Pakistan’s arm to make India part of PATTA so as to allow India to export goods to Afghanistan and beyond through Wagah border, grant Click here to read Full Article

US duplicity has made us wiser by Asif Haroon Raja

Although the US has failed to win war in Afghanistan, it has to an extent succeeded in weakening Pakistan from within through covert war to be able to denuclearize it. As against the advice of India, the US desisted from applying direct strategy due to Pakistan’s nuclear capability. The US and its strategic partners therefore embarked upon a well-thought plan to gradually weaken Pakistan and its Click here to read Full Article

India is largest in size and population and militarily and economically the strongest country in South Asia. Indian Army of 1.4 million with 34 combat divisions is the third largest in the world and Indian air force and navy too are formidable.

Today the US is looked down upon as the most ruthless and biggest terrorist state in the world that has fuelled uncertainty, insecurity and chaos in the world. It is hated because of its unjust and dual faced policies and going to any extent to achieve its strategic and mercantile interests. Its wholehearted support to Israel and India and its penchant to topple regimes and plunder resources has Click here to read Full Article
Indian Ambitions in Afghanistan and Beyond by Asif Haroon Raja

Although India’s borders are not contiguous to Afghanistan, it has always vied to maintain friendly ties with Afghanistan and to keep Pak-Afghan relations frosty. To India, ties with Kabul mean new trade routes, access to Central Asia’s vast energy reserves and a way to stave off the rise of Islamic militancy. It gives an opportunity to India to undermine Pakistan, as it nurtures its super power a Click here to read Full Article

Afghanistan shares 1400 km border with Pakistan. Apart from geographic contiguity, 42% Pashtuns of 28 million population of Afghanistan share religious, ethnic, linguistic and cultural ties with 15.2 million Pashtuns of 174 million population of Pakistan. Pashtuns living in close vicinity of Durand Line have blood relations and the border line has never acted as a barrier in their cross border mov Click here to read Full Article
Pakistan-US Fractured Relations by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 2/Nov/2012 Views:1846 Replies:0 
Historically Pak-US relationship has always been marked by convergence and divergence of national interests that kept on switching from friendship to friction. The US gained more during the times of convergence of interests but periods of divergence outweighed the former. Although Pakistan earned the title of ‘most allied ally of USA’, it is also the most sanctioned country in the world. By putti Click here to read Full Article
 
Issues of missing persons and death squads in Balochistan by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 23/Oct/2012 Views:1736 Replies:0 
Amidst the murky environment in strife-torn Baluchistan, sudden appearance of Balochistan National Party (BNP) leader Akhtar Mengal from his self-imposed exile since 2009 was a surprise for many. He is relatively moderate and wants to settle grievances remaining within the framework of federation of Pakistan. Assurances given by Nawaz Sharif, Imran Khan, Jamaat-e-Islami and above all the tough sta Click here to read Full Article
Hype over attack on Malala by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 21/Oct/2012 Views:1389 Replies:0 
Attack on 14 years old Malala Yousafzai in Swat was an abhorrent act which has rightly been condemned by great majority. Like others, I also condemn the deplorable attack in strongest words. It generated not only an extraordinary sympathy blitz both in Pakistan and rest of the world but also evoked vociferous denunciation against the perpetrators. She captured attention of the world since she had Click here to read Full Article
 
Need to arouse patriotic fervor by Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 20/Oct/2012 Views:1562 Replies:0 
Balochistan despite being the richest province of Pakistan in terms of natural resources has remained backward and neglected. There have been sporadic spurts of violence unleashed by the Baloch nationalists who are convinced that their resources are being plundered by other provinces and resource-rich Balochistan would be better off independently. This feeling germinated in their minds after the Click here to read Full Article
Motivations behind Akhtar Mengal’s Visit by Asif Haroon Raja

Balochistan continues to simmer and has reached a boiling point because of breakdown of law and order and absence of governance by the provincial government and has the portent of turning catastrophic. Spree of target killings continues; in Khuzdar such incidents are taking place almost daily. In Quetta region, the Hazaras are constantly attacked.
