"Pakistan's ability to weather the initial Indian onslaught played to its strategic advantage, even though it is less clear what would have happened if the conflict had continued," comments @MarkeyDaniel in the latest @BBC article bbc.com/news/articles/…

On the one-year anniversary of the May 2025 India-Pakistan crisis, I write for @ForeignAffairs about why the next crisis is likely to be more dangerous than the last, and why Washington may struggle to contain it. A🧵... (1): foreignaffairs.com/india/why-next…

Americans who think that holding a conference to learn about and engage with the RSS is to somehow legitimize or enable it should think harder. The RSS is by far the largest and most important civil society movement in the world’s most populous country. India has the world’s fourth largest economy and plays a growing role from the Middle East to the Taiwan Strait.

These photos being almost exactly 1 year apart really does show the rapid upheaval in U.S. South Asia policy

"From #China’s perspective, the #ShaksgamValley relates to a broader story of bolstering control over #Xinjiang and #Tibet and making significant investments in transit infrastructure all across that territory." |@MarkeyDaniel, China's Borderlands project strategicspace.nbr.org/the-shaksgam-v…

The Shaksgam Valley in China’s Borderlands strategicspace.nbr.org/the-shaksgam-v…

What significance does the #ShaksgamValley hold for #India’s, #China’s, and #Pakistan’s strategic and political interests? In a new Q&A, @MarkeyDaniel discusses border disputes, China's activities in the valley, and #Beijing's strategic calculations. strategicspace.nbr.org/the-shaksgam-v…

China conducted one such yield producing nuclear test on June 22, 2020. (4/6)

Nuclear testing while undertaking a major nuclear modernization and buildout. All while refusing US requests for talks. We made some progress on AI and NC3 in the last admin, but think it’ll take pressure from the rest of the world to get to China to meaningful talks.

It was a privilege to be a Post correspondent, roaming the world the last 7+ years for a paper I very much believed in. I'm gone along with the rest of the ME team and majority of teammates from Delhi to Beijing to Kyiv & Latam. Sad day, but it was a lot of fun and we raised hell

With this week's news of a US-India trade deal, @MarkeyDaniel, @avasudeva_87, and I explore what the deal means for Washington, New Delhi, and other global players. Give it a read 👇 stimson.org/2026/implicati…
