The Bangladesh-Pakistan reset is one of the biggest geopolitical stories in South Asia over the last year, given that relations were essentially frozen during the 15 years of Hasina’s rule. But we’ll have a better idea of its longer term trajectory after Bangladesh polls in Feb.

If Gor is confirmed as ambassador to India and also serves in the special envoy role, then it would appear that India-Pakistan hyphenation is back. Another view: The US is signaling the importance of ties w/India by having the special envoy for two key regions be posted in Delhi.

IMF has asked for removal of federal Finance Secretary from SBP Board n removal of federal govt powers to inspect commercial banks. IMF dictated 2021 amendment granted autonomy to SBP. Now banking sector will become independent; creating a State within a State. Deplorable.

A rapidly intensifying Afghan refugee crisis is playing out on the Afghanistan-Iran border. Far too many people are being forced to return to a nation where they don’t want to be—and which is ill-prepared to receive them. This week for @ForeignPolicy⁩. foreignpolicy.com/2025/07/23/afg…

I’m quoted here: “Post-revolution honeymoons often don’t last long, and Bangladesh is no exception. The interim government faced massive expectations to restore democracy and prosperity. But this is especially difficult to do as an unelected government….” apnews.com/article/bangla…

A day after India announces a deal for Foxconn to build a plant, Trump says Apple shouldn’t bring production to India. Since so much of Trump’s thinking revolves around trade, this could be another pressure tactic related to US-India trade talks (which he’d said are going well).

Trump’s recent comments—publicly announcing the India-Pakistan ceasefire, both-siding the crisis, ignoring the terror attack that triggered it, invoking Kashmir, and seemingly making light of it all—risk sparking a diplomatic crisis w/India that neither side could’ve expected.

Trump has posted again about India and Pakistan—and this time he says he will work with them to seek a “solution” on Kashmir. Wow. This goes further than his earlier offers, during his first term, of mediation on Kashmir if both sides want it.

Rubio says not only is there a cease fire, but India and Pakistan have agreed to talks “on a broad set of issues.” That’s a big deal as dialogue has essentially been frozen in recent years aside from routine info exchanges re prisoners, water, nuke sites etc. Major developments.

Pakistan and India have agreed to a ceasefire with immediate effect. Pakistan has always strived for peace and security in the region, without compromising on its sovereignty and territorial integrity!
