Kargil Catastrophe: India and Pakistan Almost Kicked Off a Nuclear War
The Kargil War marked a frightening new chapter in the international system as for the first time states with nuclear weapons faced off on a (fortunately limited) battlefield.
Here s What You Need to Remember: Washington had condemned and sanctioned both India and Pakistan’s recent nuclear tests, and its policy was then in a state of flux.
For years, there was a conceit that no two states with nuclear weapons have ever directly fought each other. That conceit has at times been thin. For example, during the Korean War, Soviet air force regiments battled U.S. jet fighters in support of North Korea. But Washington as much as Moscow refrained from pointing out that thinly-veiled fact, lest it escalate tensions.
