Indo-Pak rivalry in Afghanistan June 30, 2021 Indo-Pak tensions threaten to overshadow the reckless American exit from the Afghan quagmire. Not least because India is engaging in clandestine meetings with the Afghan Taliban in Doha; reportedly twice this month, as confirmed by the External Affairs minister. Though Subrahmanyam Jaishankar denies reports that he met Taliban co-founder Mullah Baradar. Ditto the alleged Taliban quip that relations with New Delhi will not be based on Pakistan’s wishes. Be that as it may, Islamabad has rightly rightly denounced the secret powwows. Indeed, National Security Advisor Dr Moeed Yusuf went as far as saying that India ought to be ashamed of itself. After all, the country has always remained steadfast in its refusal to dialogue with the Taliban since the group was not willing to talk to Kabul. That position hasn’t altered. So what explains the Indian change of geo-strategic heart?
