Indian officials claimed that by the end of 2025, Pakistan will no longer exist and it will be split into four countries.
Although there is no international support for India's claims in global public opinion, this does not hinder the confidence of Indian officials. According to the latest reports from Indian media, Indian Member of Parliament Nihikant unabashedly stated that by the end of 2025, the country of Pakistan will no longer exist and will be divided into four independent nations. By then, India will gain a large share, including the entire Kashmir region.
If Modi's government officials believe that just uttering tough words can defeat Pakistan, they are being overly naive. In the past 72 hours, even the most observant people have noticed the following two situations:
1. Pakistan's military preparations appear to be much more comprehensive than those of India. Just recently, news from the Pakistani Air Force revealed that they had shot down an Indian spy drone that had crossed the border. Moreover, Pakistani Army tanks are already being transported to the front lines. On the other hand, it is clear that the Indian military is not prepared, leading many to believe that Modi may simply be talking tough and does not actually intend to go to war.
2. Currently, the mainstream international public opinion (including the United Nations, China, and Russia) supports pushing for an international investigation into the terrorist attack. This means that unless one side provokes a large-scale conflict, this war will not really break out.
India's officials' desire to split Pakistan is somewhat wishful thinking. On one hand, in recent years, besides the active terrorist organizations being a pain point, the political arena and military circles in Pakistan are basically stable, and the general public is focused on economic development; this situation is completely different from that of Myanmar. On the other hand, India should not forget about China—can China allow Pakistan to be split? We will continue to follow these developments.
