7 That old spark Nepal Prime Minister s visit sparks hope that bilateral ties will find a new equilibrium At a time when the Doklam attention on Himalayan geopolitics, it was possible to miss the significance of the visit This was his first foreign visit as Prime Minister, and it conformed Kathmandu s abiding interest in strong ties with India. The recovery of bilateral warmth has taken some doing on both sides. Mr. Deuba is Nepal s 10 th Prime Minister in a decade, and its fourth since its Constitution was promulgated in India had mounted strong opposition to the Constitution with demands that it be made more inclusive, especially vis-à-vis the Madhesis in the Terai area, sending ties with Kathmandu s ruling establishment on a downward spiral.

8 Continue Even as Nepal struggled to cope with rehabilitation work after the massive earthquake of 2015, many in Kathmandu held India responsible for the three-month-long great blockade of goods and fuel supplies that followed sustained protests by Madhesi groups. Mr. Deuba s visit was another opportunity, to repair the India Nepal relationship. Joint statement at the end of the Delhi leg of his visit refers to the deep, comprehensive and multi-faceted ties between the neighbours as it listed projects being developed in Nepal under lines of credit provided by India. These include $200 million for irrigation projects, $330 million for road development and $250 million for power infrastructure in Nepal.

9 Continue Yet, it would be a mistake to presume that ties can so easily return to their pre-2015 strength, as the ground has shifted in too many ways since then. Since 2015, Nepal and China have cooperated on infrastructure plans, including 1)A big hydroelectric project and 2)-A rail link to Tibet. 3)-Belt and Road Initiative. India is struggling to leverage(पकड ) 1)-The historical closeness with Nepal, 2)-The open border the two share and 3)-The special status Nepalis working in India have enjoyed. The India-China ->Doklam will add to the awkwardness in the trilateral relationship. Mr. Deuba s visit will need a sustained follow-up.

11 Donald Trump s Afghanistan policy August 21-> U.S. President Donald Trump laid out his long awaited strategy for Afghanistan and South Asia. After 16 years, Afghanistan remains America s longest war. It has spent more than $800 billion and nearly 2,400 U.S. soldiers have lost their lives. American people are now weary(थक ) of this long war without victory and Mr. Trump has characteristically promised, in the end, we will win! Be Happy, Share & Help Each Other!!! Mission indefinite

12 Compounding mistakes Launched with the full support of the international community in 2001 after 9/11 by President George Bush, the war in Afghanistan got derailed as the U.S. shifted focus and resources towards Iraq from 2003 onwards. Since then, the insurgency has gathered momentum and also exposed the U.S. s policy weaknesses. After taking over in 2009, President Barack Obama too had undertaken a major policy review describing the Afghan war as a war of necessity, a war that we must win. U.S. troop presence from 55,000 in early 2009 reaching 100,000 in Simultaneous announcement that the drawdown would commence in 2011, and by 2014 the Afghan security forces would take charge of all combat operations, Encouraged the Taliban insurgency and also exposed the shortcomings of Afghan army and police forces, in terms of numbers, training and equipment to deal with the post 2014 situation.

13 Trump s bad hand(ब र ह थ) Mr. Trump was right when he said, When I became president, I was given a bad and very complex hand. Since 2012-> his frustration with U.S. policies in Afghanistan and had applauded(सर हन ) Mr. Obama s original decision to pull out U.S. soldiers by end He reminded the audience that, My original instinct was to pull out. Withdrawal would create a vacuum for terrorists, including ISIS and al-qaeda Pakistan-> continue to pose immense security threats U.S. With these conclusions, his options were limited Today, 70% of operations on the ground are being conducted by the Afghan Special Forces. Mr. Trump has made it clear that the purpose of the U.S. military presence is not nationbuilding, but killing terrorists.

14 Conclusion Key lies with Pakistan, something Mr. Trump s predecessors also understood. The truth is that an Afghan policy review is also a Pakistan policy review Mr. Trump has described the Pakistan policy as a key pillar of his new strategy and cautioned that the U.S. Can no longer be silent about Pakistan s safe havens for terrorist organisations, Pakistan ->U.S. should not make Pakistan a scapegoat for their failures in Afghanistan. Pakistan is upset that Mr. Trump has also indicated determination to further develop its strategic partnership with India and Appreciated India s important contributions to stability in Afghanistan. Other possible access routes are through Iran or though Russia and Kyrgyzstan. Neither is feasible since sanctions on both countries have been ramped up and the U.S. base in Kyrgyzstan closed in 2014 under Russian pressure. Consequently, Mr. Trump s policy reflects more continuity than he is willing to acknowledge.

17 Search for democracy Be Happy, Share & Help Each Other!!! A lasting return to democratic order remains a long-standing concern in Thailand, but seems some distance away in this founder member state of ASEAN. Latest twist to the ongoing political turmoil is the failure on Friday of the former Prime Minister, Yingluck Shinawatra, deposed(remove ) in 2014 by a constitutional court, to appear for the Final verdict in a case relating to a rice subsidy scheme. Her absence has fuelled speculation that she may have fuelled the country, much like her sibling and erstwhile head of government Thaksin Shinawatra, who was ousted in 2006 in a military coup and has been living in exile since. Late King-> who died last year, was an ardent(उत स ह ) champion of rural development, but not enamoured of democratic freedoms. Constitution has little to commend itself in terms of either enshrining democratic principles Any hopes for a stable democratic government in Thailand will hinge on the conduct of free and fair general elections promised for 2018.
