Expected to First Indian base outside India - Ayni - another setback

I today while going on to look over and above India's policy with Pakistan, went to search for other Indian foreign/military tactics it have been "trying" to use. But it seems that India has again been fallen to prey of back patting and leg pulling exercise by Russia. Russia has a very substaintial hold on Tajikistan's rulers and that is known by all. Knowing that, India, went for a very "loose agreement" with Tajik's to rebuilt the Ayni Airbase and in return they would like to have their presence there. After years of sitting idle, Indian military engineers are now building there a Hotel near the base. What a (mis)use of resources!

Krishna is letting game out of Hand

In this recent dialogue between India and Pakistan, it became abundantly clear that still India is taking "Baby Steps" in diplomacy against much seasoned Pakistan and its minister, who can walk away saying anything to an Indian Minister and thus India itself. We should talk to Pakistan, but how long and upto what extent?

I just read a news on TOI site which carried an article on its frontpage regarding Krishna condemning or say lamenting on Pallai's remarks on ISI. I always read news first on the site and follow it with the comments by the readers. If Honorable Minister just sees how long is the list of citizens who are condemning his statement, he will come to know his blind belief on his so called "assumptions" about Pakistan coming and acting on the request from Indian side will be fulfilled, has enraged the citizens of India.

I only hope that he does also take the view of a normal Indian and then frame his statements and not those of the super bosses from USA... else we are going to loose this diplomatic war.
