US President -elect Donald Trump’s telephonic conversation with Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif will have grave regional and global consequences.
Trump’s sudden call to Pakistan PM reflects his diplomatic and strategic way of rebuilding ties with Islamabad to alter the situation in the South Asian region when both India and Pakistan are nuclear powers.
Trump told Sharif,” You are a terrific guy,You are doing amazing work which is visible in every way .I am looking forward to see you soon. As,I talk to you, Prime Minister I feel I am talking to a person I have known for long.”
The conversation released by Pakistani authorities said Donald was “ready and willing to play any role that you want me to play to address and find solutions to the outstanding problems."
Donald Trump’s detailed conversation is going to have serious implications when India and Pakistan share tense and highly militarized borders with each other . His action also revealed that his campaign remarks about his love for Hindus and India were just a casual remark.
Donald said “You are doing amazing work which is visible in every way” implies that Pakistan PM Nawaz has shown practical wisdom in handling domestic matters when military and ISI has been seen enjoying supremacy over civilian government in that country and also internationally gaining importance over India.
Already India -Pakistan ties are constrained due to increased number of terror attacks on Indian armed forces and ceasefire violations by Pakistani military along the LoC and the International border in the state of Jammu and Kashmir .
Chinese leader who has already talked with Donald after his wining the elections ,must have spoken to him about the strategic and economic benefits of engaging with Pakistan.
But Donald's haphazard way of speaking to leaders of 29 countries including Australia, Canada, China, Turkey, Israel, Russia and ignoring to speak with the Indian Prime Minister also shows his policy of seeing New Delhi for a petty and low role in his scheme of things. India should therefore guard against accepting any degraded role in the region.
Trump’s early moves of speaking with foreign leaders without assessing the repercussions also shows his immaturity in handling diplomacy and communication strategy in world affairs.
As a tradition the US President -elect is acquainted with the importance attached to different countries to bring about the desired changes in American policy.Thus it amply confirms that the Prime Minister Narendra Modi diplomacy of touring the world has failed miserably .
Congress Leader Anand Sharma rightly pointed out in the Parliament that “demonetization is right but the way it has implemented is giving the wrong impression to the world that Indian economy is standing on black money and black marketers.”
