Pakistan’s Defence Minister has confessed to engaging in controversial activities on behalf of the United States and western countries for the past thirty years, labeling it as an error that inflicted suffering. After the tragic Pahalgam attack claimed the lives of 26 individuals, the Pakistani government took swift action by halting the Indus Waters Treaty, shutting down the Attari ICP (Integrated Check Post), and downsizing diplomatic personnel. The admission of involvement in “dirty work” by the Defence Minister has sparked widespread debate and raised concerns about Pakistan’s foreign policy decisions. The aftermath of the Pahalgam attack has led to increased tensions between India and Pakistan, with the latter facing criticism for its actions. The suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty has further strained relations between the two neighboring countries, as water sharing agreements have been a longstanding point of contention. The closure of the Attari ICP has also affected trade and movement of goods between India and Pakistan, adding economic implications to the diplomatic fallout. The reduction in diplomatic staff reflects a deterioration in the already fragile relationship between the two nations. As the situation continues to unfold, both countries are facing pressure to find a resolution and prevent further escalation of tensions.
