Pakistan’s Role and Strategic Priorities in Afghanistan since 1980
This report discusses Pakistan-Afghan relations in the context of Pakistan's internal security situation and emerging foreign policy outlook. The author argues that while Pakistan wants to support an Afghan-led process of political reconciliation, there are visible differences regarding their approaches to the Taliban. This said, failure to develop and implement a coherent policy and methodology for reconciliation in Afghanistan could have grim consequences for the security and stability of Pakistan, Afghanistan and the wider region.
