Pakistan Between the US, China, Iran & Afghanistan | Roundtable | Episode 30

For decades, Pakistan has found itself at the center of some of the world's most important geopolitical developments. From Afghanistan and Iran to the United States, regional security, and counterterrorism, the country's foreign policy continues to shape events far beyond its borders. In this episode, Talha Ahad sits down with Sheharyar Khan, a specialist in P/CVE, and Imran Khan, Senior Fellow at the National Dialogue Forum, for an in depth conversation on Pakistan's strategic challenges and opportunities. ‪@GeopoliticalGupShup‬ The discussion explores Pakistan's relationship with Afghanistan, the evolving dynamics with Iran and the United States, the impact of the War on Terror, the rise of the TTP, border security, countering violent extremism, refugee policy, and Pakistan's position in an increasingly complex global order. If you're interested in geopolitics, international relations, security, and Pakistan's role in the region, this conversation provides valuable context beyond the headlines. #PakistanSecurity #TehreekETalibanPakistan #AfghanTaliban #PakistanForeignPolicy #CounterTerrorism _________________________________________________ 00:00:00:00 – TRAILER 00:02:28:16 – INTRO 00:02:37:31 – Personal Background 00:07:00:43 – Where does Pakistan stand in terms of internal security? 00:12:12:04 – How does the american institutes make policies? 00:15:22:06 –How do you evaluate anti-terrorism ventures of Pakistan Govt. 00:20:57:42 – Why Pakistani state is always confuse about their narrative regarding Talibans 00:27:20:40 – Do you think we have unable to execute a robust policy regarding Afghanistan? 00:39:08:21 – Why Afghanistan has issues with Pakistan only? 00:53:11:46 – Who is ultimately responsible for Waziristan's ongoing security and humanitarian crisis? 01:08:25:36 – Where are we heading geo-politically ? 01:16:59:39 – Thanks For Coming. 01:17:12:41 – Outro _____________________________________________________________ Search ‘Talha Ahad Podcast' on YouTube, Spotify, or wherever you like to listen to your podcasts.
