May 11: The Diplomat report by Umair Jamal states that last week, the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) published a report claiming that Pakistan’s military is seeking rapprochement with India. Given Pakistan and India’s complicated relationship and the domestic and international pressures that have always undermined the spirit of such initiatives, one should be careful about drawing any conclusions about a likely reconciliation between these historic foes. With all its limitations, however, given the fact that Pakistan’s powerful military is leading the reported initiative in an attempt to normalize ties with India, one can argue that the prospect for a solid peace between the two countries remains a real possibility.
