Pakistan's Kashmir Cause: Sharif Reclaims What Khan Compromised
My latest in The Friday Times
Kashmir cannot survive on solidarity diplomacy, just as Pakistan's water rights cannot be protected by warnings alone. Both require international law, diplomatic persistence and the systematic mobilisation of Pakistan's partnerships abroad. The opportunity that was squandered in 2019 must not be lost again thefridaytimes.com/29-Sep-20…

On September 22, @CSSPR_UOL
hosted a timely roundtable entitled " Alliances, Autonomy, and Mediation: Pakistan in the Emerging Regional Security Order." Moderated by @Rabs_AA and featuring Amb.Zamir Akram, @khalidbanuri , @smalik480 , @AirCommodoreR , and Amb. Raza Bashir Tarar, the roundtable focused on discussing various aspects of the Makkah Defence Alliance. These included the meanings and forms of involvement, not least in Yemen, the Article 5-like clause, strategic autonomy, and deterrence.
The speakers explained the difference between automicity and the demonstration of resolve while also touching upon issues like those related to political economy. They also stressed the need for proactively setting and controlling the narrative on the Alliance.

It was an absolute privilege and a treat to host an expert conversation at the Department of Political Science, University of the Punjab, Lahore on the topic "Reconfiguration of Strategic Interactions: Makkah Joint Defense Agreement Complements Niche Diplomacy?"
Khalid Banuri retweeted
As world leaders gather at #UNGA81, the test is not the strength of speeches but the willingness to prevent escalation, sustain dialogue, and restore trust in multilateral diplomacy. In today’s world, with wars in #Ukraine and #MiddleEast keeping channels open is not weakness, it is strategic necessity.

Air Cdre @khalidbanuri argues that the Makkah Alliance shows political resolve, differentiating it from the automaticity of a kinetic response.
Khalid Banuri retweeted
Dr. @smalik480 argues that Pakistan needs a strong economy and good, efficient governance. The challenge, she notes, is to become a credible mediator.
Khalid Banuri retweeted
Ambiguity of form is not akin to that of intent, stresses @khalidbanuri.
Khalid Banuri retweeted
The Makkah Agreement, notes @khalidbanuri ,is "not an Article 5-equipped one.
Khalid Banuri retweeted
How can Pakistan translate its enhanced geostrategic relevance into lasting influence while balancing defence commitments, diplomatic mediation, and strategic autonomy?
I look forward to moderating CSSPR’s roundtable, “Alliances, Autonomy, and Mediation: Pakistan in the Emerging Regional Security Order,” at the University of Lahore.
Joining me will be Amb. Zamir Akram, Air Cdre Khalid Banuri, Dr. Salma Malik, Air Cdre Khalid Chishti, and Syed Mubasher Bukhari. Our discussion will examine the Makkah Defence Alliance, Pakistan’s mediation in the US-Iran war, and the opportunities and difficult choices these roles present within the wider regional security landscape.
