Gates on Pakistan's Strategic Calculations
Posted by Patrick Barry

Sec. Gates takes a question on Pakistan's support for militant groups operating along its borders with Afghanistan.  According to Gates, Pakistan has historically lent a hand to such groups, in part because of the lack of U.S. commitment to stabilizing Afghanistan. 

That answer doesn't address what in my view is the larger part of Pakistan's equation - maintaining strategic depth visive India.

Thank you nice post much

Hi,
Very informative.Really Gates isn’t answering the question about Pakistan to David Gregory. He’s answering the question about Pakistan directly to the Pakistanis.
