'Will continue to have firm stance on terrorism': EAM Jaishankar after India, Pakistan agree to stop military operations | India News - The Times of India
India News: External Affairs Minister Jaishankar announced that India and Pakistan have reached an understanding to halt firing and military actions, reaffirmingtimesofindia.indiatimes.com
According to Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri, Pakistan’s DGMO initiated the call at 15:35 IST, during which both sides agreed to halt all military activity from 17:00 IST. Misri added that instructions had been issued on both sides to enforce the agreement, and further talks were scheduled for 12 May at noon.
Yes that is why I posted that news item. We never depend or get involved with a third party to tell us what to do in a conflict like this.This is the important bit
That was until the Simla '72 agreement was being followed. When we put IWT in abeyance they did the same with the Simla agreement.We never depend or get involved with a third party to tell us what to do.
That is different from Trump telling us to stop and we stop. It may not be exactly like that but that is what is being made out to be.It's not true we don’t get involved with a third party. Kargil was won by diplomats. It was their efforts that got Clinton to drop support for Pakistan and they vacated the remaining 120/160 posts they occupied.
Unless we have the capability to make Pak compensate for lives lost and massive expenses of war inflicted on our citizens, we are not in grand shape.we will have to see if that is even a detterent for them and what we do when it happens again.
is Imran dead ?
this ! , its already a bankrupt beggar piece of land , who living in their own bubble.Pakistan leaders and military benamis have nothing much to lose, Indian man have to pay tons in taxes to compensate Pak's utter moronity. This is the sad part.
As I have commented before here, I believe BJP is in the illusion of some sort of global right wing brotherhood. They have consistently compromised Indian foreign policy to gain some point in domestic affairs of US, Canada, etc Modi has a soft spot for Trump for apparently this reason. How else do you explain an Indian PM doing an election rally for an American president, something that's never been done before or since. That would be like if Obama came to India during 2014 elections and did a rally for Rahul Gandhi.Really disappointeded that we agreed to a ceasefire. What exactly could trump pressure us with tariff?
they will do all the drama they can do, so that, USA can give them some money.Meanwhile "Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Ali Amin Gandapur submitted a petition in the Islamabad High Court (IHC) seeking the parole-based release of PTI founding chairman, citing serious threats to his life in Adiala Jail from India."... Lolz.
I usually do not subscribe to conspiracy theories or give them much weight, but it is quite a coincidence that companies like Apple decide to move out of China to India, China loses big contracts from USA in their stupid trade wars and next thing we know India gets hit with a terror attacks and gets into a scuffle with Pak. As stupid as Pak is and as vile is their nature, this timing is just too bad for us and too good for China.this ! , its already a bankrupt beggar piece of land , who living in their own bubble.
Their only motto is to destabilize India, whatever business left in India to move out to other sean .
and we have our mf warmongering media. who are not even caring guidelines of PIB.
Our position has always been non escalatory and not to continue. If anything it's the Paks he had to lean on. Which is to their interest because in a way the west has bailed them out before a humiliating defeat.That is different from Trump telling us to stop and we stop. It may not be exactly like that but that is what is being made out to be.
Our message was delivered on May 7 in the first strike. That was all the deterrent the planners had in mind provided the Paks didn't respond.In my opinion this puts us back to square one - exactly what the US want. While the Govt has stated that any terrorist activity will constitute a war, we will have to see if that is even a detterent for them and what we do when it happens again.
USA few weeks earlier gave Pak $400mn to maintain F16 fighter jets. If India could annihilate that necessity, Pak would've been only happier ?so that, USA can give them some money.
no conspiracy theory. just ask yourself. if you have to open a restaurant where you will open?I usually do not subscribe to conspiracy theories or give them much weight, but it is quite a coincidence that companies like Apple decide to move out of China to India,
USA has vested interest as well , brother.USA few weeks earlier gave Pak $400mn to maintain F16 fighter jets. If India could annihilate that necessity, Pak would've been only happier ?
