US-Pakistan relations are about to enter a much darker phase. 2011-09-26 08:49:32 http://www.rusi.org/analysis/commentary/ref:C4E1EAAC92F3AD/ The three bombs that tore through Mumbai add to the city's death toll from terrorism - 700 killed since 1993. If the Indian Mujahideen (IM) is responsible, it indicates the grave threat posed by domestic Indian groups plugged into international jihadi network. 2011-07-14 09:51:32 http://www.rusi.org/analysis/commentary/ref:C4DDA43893D896/ The co-ordinated attack on a Pakistani naval base, the latest assault on a military facility, raises deep questions about the security of the country's nuclear weapons and the endurance of Pakistan's relationship with China and the United States. 2011-05-23 12:26:24 http://www.rusi.org/analysis/commentary/ref:C4B8D3FF2AB91D/ The bomb attack in Pune on 14 February, claimed by a Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) splinter group, has once again brought the spectre of jihadist terrorism within India into focus. To build on progress made in recent talks, Indian policy makers must look beyond narrow internal and external rhetoric surrounding terrorist attacks. 2010-03-02 16:46:02 http://www.rusi.org/publications/journal/ref:A4B865CE45A98E/ India is playing a key role in the Afghan conflict. But its animosity with Pakistan threatens this contribution, and the US has been unable to choose a long-term partner 2010-02-25 11:20:06 http://www.rusi.org/analysis/commentary/ref:C4A8AB8E10E751/ It is unlikely that the forthcoming presidential election in Afghanistan will have an immediate impact on the ground. However the political direction of Afghanistan and the determination of NATO to maintain stability will be of crucial significance for the long-term security of South Asia and the rivalry between India and Pakistan. 2009-08-18 15:22:52 http://www.rusi.org/analysis/commentary/ref:C49906F67ADFEE/ A comment made by David Miliband on Kashmir caused outrage in India after he inadvertently breached the fiercely defended separation between the Kashmir question and the problem of terrorism in Pakistan. Indian sensitivities over Kashmir could well cause problems for the Obama Administration’s much-touted regional strategy in South Asia. 2009-02-09 18:05:35 http://www.rusi.org/analysis/commentary/ref:C496A403CE6D75/ The Indian government has defied its own hawks by seeking to work with the Pakistanis and pursue the attackers of Mumbai. Pakistan must now respond in kind and join the Indian government in resisting belligerent voices in favour of those calling for peace. The status quo requires immediate and bold action from both sides, with international patronage, before it is too late. 2009-01-11 18:59:56 http://www.rusi.org/analysis/commentary/ref:C49381BA04AF43/ India’s internal security reforms have not matched the pace of the liberalisation of its economy. Counter-terrorism forces lack a unified command, adequate training or resources to meet domestic and cross-border threats. In order to develop a coherent counter-terror doctrine, security reforms must enhance co-ordination between security agencies and government whilst transcending party politics. 2008-12-04 18:07:17 http://www.rusi.org/analysis/commentary/ref:C492FBA5404B2B/ Ahead of the national elections in India, and so soon after renewed unrest in Kashmir, eyes will be on the communal tensions in India for answers to the Mumbai attacks. 2008-11-28 09:33:57 http://www.rusi.org/analysis/commentary/ref:C492FB46BDC814/ Terrorist attacks in India spring from a complex and combustible mix of indigenous discontent, tensions in Kashmir, the pervasive hand of al-Q’aida, and fraught Indo-Pakistan relations. As the dust settles from the Mumbai attacks, it is an open question as to which direction the apportionment of blame and pursuit of the perpetrators may head. 2008-11-28 09:07:11 http://www.rusi.org/publications/newsbrief/ref:J40d32ea881c07/ India, Kashmir, Pakistan, Counter-Insurgency, terrorism 2002-07-01 09:00:00 http://www.rusi.org/publications/newsbrief/ref:J40d32ea83ccb6/ India cannot be seen to be turning the other cheek against terrorism within its borders. 2002-01-01 09:00:00
