In this week's #NationalInterest, Shekhar Gupta tells you why India shouldn’t be paranoid about a weakened Pakistan creating a new ‘Terroristan’, and how this the best chance to focus on maritime power and opportunity rather than overland threats.

The timeline of the decline of Pakistani gdp matches exactly with the arrival of Nawaz Sharif and Benazir Bhutto/ Asif Zardari in Pakistani political scene.
Pakistan economic woes are very less due to the reasons mentioned above and more so due to the arrival of corrupt leaders in Pakistan who destroyed the institutions to benefit themselves and their families. I believe the tide is turning now with Imran Khan at the helm.
@Munish the GDP declined due to reduction in imports in order to address the current deficit. This was done for the long-term benefit of the economy. The recent numbers have already shown improvement.
Blame Zia, he made madarssas to educate people instead of universities and now only thing Pakistan has to offer for global economy is manual labour or distrupt it with terror attacks
This quite literally is what “ blue ocean strategy “ is all about.
And the best part - we don’t have to reinvent the wheel, merely update the template of the great Chola empire.
Correct
Exactly , we are wasting our time and harming our economy by trying to trade with Pakistan , Iran and central Asia while in our south whole asean is a trading power house which has bigger economy then India itself
This happens when Delhi ppl are filled in foreign policy office , we should hire more tamils , they know the value of Indonesia and Malaysia
The way cholas used navy to increase economic gain was simply brilliant, we should do the same
I agree that as a economic blueprint. But as history shows, and somewhat repeating, India was invaded from the North and North West. We want to build our defenses in the North and trade using our sea route. Anyways, the modern Silk Route is out Of reach for us geographically
India should be obsessed with its development so that it can secure its borders militarily and all its people are well fed. Hopefully our politicians and bureaucrats will rise to the occasion.
Let's hope that Afghanistan will find its place under the sun. The Taliban are fiercely independent warriors. Let's wait and watch their governance.
I feel Pakistan and China will soon have more trouble from the Taliban than they had calculated.
As a third world person, we had hoped India and china who had equally suffered under the hands of European colonialism, would equally worked together with us none Europeans for a better world for us. Would India chose to work with the old colonialists against us. Based on India's fickle past , and her ridged inflexible (cast base system)her vision of mankind social structure , strange synergy with the Anglos ,India watchers were always suspicious if she would continue being their go to arm. India has finally dropped her mask and shown her true face. It appears we were right, she will again be the Europeans cutting arm kshatriyas in the non European world, but on a much broader scale than in the past. India has been elevated EUROPEANS gate keeper KSHATRIYAS.
Thanks India for positioning us in the third world as you Shudras and Dalits, "untouchables,"

good one however, you lost me 3/4 of the way--- if America controls Taliban, Pakistan , now India, where does that leave China, and Russia. And why is Taliban courting Russia and China for help. India is now against Russia and China, and is now openly with the Brits, NATO ,japan and the Americans. All Indian talking heads on radio television social media are bashing china, Pakistan and Taliban. Masood son is making the rounds in western countries denouncing Taliban and talking about Democracy, and arms to fight the Taliban ( I am confused)
Taliban are not fierce. But they are duplicitous, treacherous and brutal. They are in no way superior but for the way they lie and display their brutality. They are good at marketing fear and use that against peace loving people of Afghanistan.
If only, History and Geography were taught in Schools this way, would we have more engaged and informed students.
These subjects are still taught in India in the 19th century mode of compartments as separate disciplines. No student is taught in history classes how to study a map in the book. Fernand Braudel calls history as "geo-history".

When Chinese are encroaching from the North and Pakistan is sweeping Indian assets out of Afghanistan, Gupta is telling Indians to look South. Mr. Gupta, India's provocative behavior in the Indian Ocean will ramifications for India everywhere [North and West] not just in Indian Ocean.
BTW, similar illogical assertions you made on 26th Feb, which fell flat on 27th.

Sometimes, india always lingers behind.

The advise you gave India in the last 2 minutes of this episode is gold. I hope GOI takes note.
modis message for terroristan was for domestic audience only ..he knows along with dova that this is better for his domestic audience who will rally behind and consolidate votes ... his push for exports and sea routes and 1 trillion export was on those lines.. smokes and mirrors of diplomacy..having observed indias understanding of afg which is any day better than the whites ..his team understands this very well

Anyone who would've watched the bond film released in that era - The living daylights - would get an idea how these good jihadis were portrayed in popular media.
Taliban is different, no other "mujahid" organisation has killed and so many Muslims and fellow country men like the talibans and isis
@@lotusadmin4709 Most of the deaths were either "collateral damage" or for breaking religious rule or for allegations of colluding with foreigners
@@dominicj7977 you dont have the right to kill anyone for breaking religious rules , its between me and Allah subhan ab talha, who are the talibans to come in between , thats why its not jehad but terrorism,to some extent the al quida were mujahids but not taliban or isis...its a game for power...not fighting for justice

Dear Mr. Gupta, after listening to you multiple times, I strongly feel like your analogy about Afghanistan is made with facts observed from 35000 ft above the ground.
When you talk about the Cold War between USSR and America in Afghanistan, you completely forget Afghans.
Invasion of Russia into Afghanistan deny them the freedom of religion. Taking that advantage America collaborated with Pakistan to Arm them with American weapons and Pakistani Islam. Which helped them win the battle.
During this 20years of American rule Afghans have tasted the freedom and advantages of democracy. Now they will fight with Talibans to establish democracy which America had understand.
Now the Afghans minus American minus investments and support will build a free and democratic Afghanistan.
If that is the case, why are thousands of Afghans desperately trying to leave the country? Dont say they are people who helped US and allies. Literally every Afghan who can manage to get on the road seems to want to leave the country. Why?
Very funny.... 😂😂😂😂 people are running away from democracy
@@user_ar6332 But there are millions who are staying back. Don’t you think nations go through these kinds of turmoils to become successful. All developed nations have gone through tough times. I have strong faith in Common Afghans. Democracy will prevail in Afghanistan especially after they tasted the freedom during last 20 years. Afghans will RISE.

Excellent. You did answered all answered and cleared worries of all our Indians.
So that should be the reason Centre is focusing on Lakshadweep, giving attention to the coastline
Andaman and Nicobar as well
India took 75 years to analyze threat from the West but all the threat perception proved to be entirely proved wrong. India could not appreciate threat from the North which actually existed. This threat from the North actually worked in 2020 and grabbed more than 20,000 Sq Miles of Indian land. Now India is on the mercy of Chinese aggression which is not going to stop.
India should start really looking East. Its time to forget the Afpak region and start investing time and energy in the Eastern countries such as Myanmar, Thailand etc from where better returns can be had. It needs to consolidate the NE region and open up the borders.
What investment? Sanctions imposed myanmar? Its better to invest in india itself more for now. foreign investments mostly dont seem to yield any major returns than internal ones. the political risk is just too high and indian diplomacy hasnt yet matured to the level of power projections like major powers in economic affairs
Don’t you think it’s wishful that Pakistan shall forget fall of Dhaka and let Indians to shift their resources to east. Keep dreaming. Wait and see.
@@romm2885 you control our resources? 😂
We Indians are happy with taliban takeover (we only care about the afghans and the women who will suffer)
Now you enjoy with taliban.. Go nuts. We have many reasons to be happy :
- Durand line
- TTP
- taliban govt means Pakistan has no leverage and no influence on them any more
Maze Karo, enjoy.. And yes, thanks for reminding us of the fall of Dhaka. Haha..
Shifting resources to east means convergence of interests of China and Pakistan. Yes neither we have forgotten nor forgiven the separation of east Pakistan. You guys overly wishful. Loved to bleed Pakistan through Indians consulates in Afghanistan during previous regime and now want to shift towards east. Wah gi wah.
@@romm2885 We will shift our resources , wherever we want after measuring the pros and cons.
It's not for a meagre country like Pakistan to even think that it can influence Indian decisions but we are stuck with Pakistan so is your country because of our nation politics, both national political fraternity knows that without each other it will be hard to materialise hyper-nationalism within their population thus cannot reap any of the benefits.
You talk about the fall of Dhaka ,like it was only our role in East Pakistan which led it to become today's Bangladesh.
You guys lost it because of the genocide which you incited on your own people(Not my opinion but the biggest fact sir, documented well in almost every major paper regarding it).
What Afghanistan is to Pakistan, Nepal is to India, all tied to cultural and geographical matrix. India must concentrate within to strengthen the national resolve to meet the challenges, both economic and geostrategic.
Wise words pajji
This was such a refreshing take and makes so much sense. We honestly have nothing to gain from dabbling in Afghanistan at this moment. We need to learn from the US and look beyond

Enjoyed it a lot. It's hard for anyone to believe that no threat will emerge for Afghanistan. But I completely agree that India must focus its gaze on the seas fully!!
Sir, our 4000 years history shows that whenever we ignored Afghanistan we faced existential crisis.
Our history has not only been Afghanistan but also sea lanes where we had influence in the past. We should have an eye on it but our focus should be on the area where majority of wealth which going to be made in this century which is in Indo pacific region and the sea lanes.
@@732anoop No doubt about that but we should not ignore Afghanistan at any cost.
@shmooprint xo Let me add you. It was conquered by Greeks, Mauryans, Shakas, Parthians, Indo sassanians, Iranians, Uzbeks, Tajiks, Mongols, Mughals, Rajputs and finally Ranjit Singh. It is not unconquerable. it is modern concept.
@Jim S De jure, we border Afghanistan. Nd no one said that forget about economy. Security matters and a secure nation can prosper.
could you please be more specific? when did we 'ignore' Afghanistan and faced 'existential crisis'? There was no Afghanistan 4000 years ago.
I have to write this somewhere in my notebooks. Thank you Sir, GuruJi for these eyeopeners
Sir, with due respect, there is one contradiction I have with your today's presentation....I don't think its a defeat for USA in Afghanistan this time, rather its a game they started long back when Mullah Baradar was released in 2018...I believe USA wanted to leave from Afghanistan asap (which escalated by Corona) to focus on something else which strategically more important to them (which we all know) and they wanted an exit without much bloodshed (which we saw)...also, with this exit I foresee a cloud of something big is coming in next 5- 7 years
I'm Somali. Somalia is at peace now so India should step up and build strong ties with Somalia. We have the largest coast in Africa.
Sir, very beautifully and eloquently brought out by you and I fully agree on all the points but 'Obsession with Pakistan' is a project nurtured and watered by our political elite to fuel nationalism and ultimately cash it in ballot boxes. And this obsession will kept alive to fool the masses and I just hope in the process our political hierarchy not themselves got delusional in the process. Once again, thanks for sharing your insights.

I don't think Pakistan will loose any opportunity to destabilize India once they get a strong foothold in Afghanistan. China will also help them to attain success for their vested interest. So it will be a mere day-dream to focus only on southern peninsula by forgetting the impending danger.
Happy Birthday print. I've been following almost all episodes of CTC and National interest and gained a lot of knowledge from it. It did help me with my current affairs section in interviews and all my exams.
So you will appear in Pakistan Civil services examination 👍👍👍
Yes..should be

Insightful. So now India should not stay fixated on Afghanistan if we accept that the country is a distraction for India, but it should also be wary of being used by the USA to manage its containment policy of China. India should not stay a stalwart allay of the USA as this won’t help its negotiations on the LAC.

30 minutes of Pakistan Pakistan Pakistan this guy has nothing but Pakistan phobia.
Makes sense....Pakistan is going to be very busy managing Afghanistan situation, it’s unfolding on their borders...maybe that’s why loc ceasefire is also holding up...pak doesn’t want two live and unstable borders ...maybe india has a chance as SG says 😊
It’s a well argued presentation. India’s focus should be on sealing its borders and monitoring activities of potential enemies of India in these countries rather than pn active dialogue , investing in a long term relationship or resorting to confrontation. It’s a matter of time before the Taliban and Pakistan part ways.
India should first fix the internal problems. We are more than population of africa and as diverse as entire european union. The only way to do that is to build strong, transparent and accountable institutions. Also Increase in low cost connectivity and transport for both goods and people. A strong India internally is like a good immune system that can fight virus of terrorism and challenges from climate change.

Good One Shekhar! The time is simply apt for India to build a strategic and operational deterrence and augment it's arsenal. Time to flex and assert our rightful place, especially as we have a strong government at the centre, sans the compulsion of coalition politics!
We had limited resources to focus on east, so we put whatever resources we had to secure northern border. But in present and future we can focus on multiple fronts.
I will respectfully disagree, take Israel for example..
They were surrounded by enemies, way more than we were. I think it's just an excuse for not getting things in order
@@mankala India was a closed economy, only after 90s Indian economy started growing significantly. Whereas Israel had backing of USA and Europe, they helped Israel economically and militarily.
@Jim S I'm not trying to discredit Jewish people, but they needed support from west. West recognized Israel and supported them internationally whenever Israel was in trouble. West also provided military equipments. You can look up on internet how Western countries help Israel its all in public domain.
Stability of North depends not just on Army but also harmony in the country. If people stand together regardless of their religions, region and caste, half our problems will be resolved. Instead of trying to win over our fellow Indians if they support one another, country will be more beautiful and a Heaven we couldn't find.
When someone is pointing guns at you, how can you not protect yourself?
Even though I am a Pakistani, listening to you gives me Intelligent Indian vibes. Indian news channels feel like big boss shows. Even our controlled media has better image than Indian's.

Agree fully that the force that controls the sea lanes through Indian Ocean cannot be wished away. I have seen a document from British Indian Administration to IndianOffice in UK asking it to allocate more funds for a fledgling Indian Navy because of strategic value of dominating Indian Ocean!
We are too fractured internally (ideologically speaking)….we need to unite against these externalities or we will be broken down.
i wholeheartedly AGREE...India shud now embark on a mission to be a 200 ship navy in IOR with 30+ submarines atleast in the next 10 - 15 years...chinese navy is huge but just like their air force...a bulk of their vessels are old and not decommissioned...fortify the andamans...we must have atleast 3 carrier battle groups...invest hugely in hypersonic and DEWs...
I showed my friend the world map, put my finger on Tajikistan, and asked him "I wonder where is Kabaristan?" He kept searching. He still hasn't figured it out.
A very original and brilliant line of the strategic thought. Hope the PMO and MEA are listening.
Funny how Pakistani's are celebrating US exit of Afghanistan not realising Americans funds and Weapons subsidies are gonna stop 😂
It's not like US was giving them a lot anyways.
@@daniyalamed2960 Still Loss Is A Loss...
@Jim S 300 million dollars is not a lot. I have no idea where this idea In India is coming that Pakistan is broke. They will always have money for defense. It is just one of those things that are not bound to the economy
@Jim S You are veering away from the conversation. My main point was that US was not actually paying them a lot lately anyways so it would not make a huge difference.
@Jim S Also as far as peace is concerned they have given up but it is actually your BJP goverment that is hell bent on keep beating the dead horse. Imran khan wanted to negioate but they keep rejecting his talks offer so idk what to tell you.
You very rightly said "India should get out of its obsession with Pakistan "
Last three elections in Pakistan...India was never mentioned in any election speeches by any political leader...How did Modi won the two elections in India...by Pakistan bashing.
The concept of strategic depth is a thing of the past..
So forget about it. With missiles available with both India and Pakistan, do you really believe depth really matters.
Strategic Location of Pakistan...Any land connection between India and the entire Far East with Central Asia, Europe etc. shall remain impossible without taking Pakistan in the loop.
With all the problems in South China Sea, CPEC will be the life line for China . It is equally important for Pakistan. India was given the assignment by USA to disrupt it by attacking Gilgit Baltistan....and you know what happened..India is now struck with China in the North...Eventually India will realize the benefits of settling its disputes with China and Pakistan and joining CPEC.
With what happened in Afghanistan, can India really trust declining powers like USA and Europe..Learn from Pakistan's experiences ..India's importance to them is only because it is a big market for their products or to use it against China.
Taliban are no fools..To survive they will try to have good relations with all countries including India but would never allow their soil to be used against Pakistan, China or Central Asian countries..So India better forget about inflicting a thousand cuts from Afghanistan side.
Hope you consider the above facts in your generally un biased analysis......The present one was totally biased and much much below your standard.

Firstly - Many Happy fourth returns to the entire staff and to the BOSS of “ The Print “ .
Well done 👍.
Second , I am only paranoid about Taliban gaining access to Pak nuclear arsenals .
That would spell doom for my country of birth .
Third , do we really want an Islamic caliphate at our doorstep ?
India’s options seem fluid in the current scenario.
We may voluntary give our TOYS to our friends Taliban 🤣🤣🤣😤😤😤

See the stronger the Taliban gets, it's better for BJP's politics , so I highly doubt it will do anything affirmative against Taliban (even if they want to do something, there are very few options). The best option is waiting for things to settle.
Happy Birthday to Print..
I like your videos cause they are accurate, informative and without any polarized view. Also, at the end Print present a best solution for our incredible India 🇮🇳.
I wish all the best for future endeavors to all the staff, support staff and unsung heroes.👍
All lies, don't fool the people see how superpowers left Afghanistan
Happy 4th birthday Print.
Thank you to provide true news with real journalism.
You are 1 of the few media houses who show truth without any bias or prejudice.
Happy birthday prints. You guys are doing great journalism. I love your experience stories.
Another interesting point to note is that Afghanistan also has one of the largest reserves of lithium, the key resource for all battery technologies and I’m sure this fact isn’t lost on the Chinese. Therefore in addition to keep Xinjiang safe, there is additional motivation for the Chinese to keep the afghans in good humor
SG is a real coward. Afghanistan asked for help in 1992, India did nothing. As a result, Afghanistan became a province of Pakistan until 2001. Now also Afghanistan asked for help but Modi has not responded. Again Afghanistan became a province of Pakistan.
Shekhar ji many many congratulations and I wish you all the best for many more such anniversaries of THE PRINT. Cheers!!
