Cia report on india-pakistan: At present, the relationship between India and Pakistan is in a very tense situation. The reason for this is the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. However, in the meantime, a news related to the American Intelligence Agency (CIA) has come out. The classified report made under the leadership of former CIA officer Bruce Reidel has revealed that if the war between India and Pakistan sparked, then it will start with an issue like Kashmir and Pakistan will be in a weak position before. The US intelligence agency CIA created a national intelligence estimate (NIE) in 1993, which said that Pakistan is afraid of India.

Pakistan is afraid of India in every region. In every form of economic, military and political, the neighboring country eats fear from the country. Pakistan performs proxy war in Kashmir. He supports terrorists, which is part of his strategic policy. Pakistan is always restless due to India’s increasing power and stability. Pakistan uses terrorism as a strategy. This is called low-cost, high-impact war policy. It has also been revealed in the report that in the coming time, Pakistan will adopt Islam as a weapon.

New face of terrorism war for Pakistan
CIA warned 32 years ago that a major terrorist attack could trigger Indo-Pak conflict. This time the same thing happened when the terrorists targeted peaceful tourist spots like Pahalgam, in which 26 people died. There is also evidence of Pakistan’s hand behind this attack, because the resistance front (TRF) has taken responsibility for this attack, which is the Lashkar-e-Taiba mask. Letger has the support of the Pakistan Army. The 1993 CIA report states that Pakistan cannot win an open war against India. Instead, he will use Proxy War. Today India is an emerging superpower on the global platform, while Pakistan is struggling with internal instability, economic crisis and international isolation.

Pakistan’s situation was 32 years ago
It has also been mentioned in the CIA report that India was moving ahead of Pakistan in 1993. However, this was not the case with Pakistan. He was swinging between military rule, political crisis and economic collapse. More or less today the situation of Pakistan is the same as old. Despite all its internal challenges in India 32 years ago, with the help of a stable government and growing economy, it was moving forward in the world. At that time India was headed by Prime Minister PV Narasimha Rao, while Dr. Manmohan Singh was the Finance Minister.

Role of America
The NIE of 1993 was not limited to CIA only. Its purpose was to alert the White House and the Foreign Department. However, Pakistan continued to be exempted despite continuous warnings. The US had advised to create a hotline, nuclear deal and confidence to reduce Indo-Pak tension, but it often failed in times of crisis.
