I was quoted in this @FT piece but completely disagree w/premise that COVID second wave shows India unable to be strong strategic partner for US. Wrongheaded assertion. Hopefully my quotes reflect that.

India should cooperate fully and immediately with U.S. to address this shocking development or risk hard-fought progress in US-India relations.

Fruitless for US to keep pleading with #Taliban for peace talks. @USEmbassyKabul @SecBlinken @State_SCA @UNAMAnews lead effort to deprive TB of legitimacy and slap UN sanctions on key TB leaders for atrocities against civilians, like assassination of government media chief.

The #Pakistan connection to the #texassynagogue hostage taking: Pakistan government has advocated 4 #AafiaSiddiqui release including in exchange 4 Shakil Afridi, who helped US track bin Laden. Shameful.
nbcnews.com
Who is Aafia Siddiqui, the federal prisoner at the center of the Texas hostage incident?
Her lawyer says she opposes violence, but prosecutors said she yelled "I am going to kill all you Americans" after she opened fire on U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan.

Caught up with ⁦@saadmohseni⁩ ⁦@DohaForum⁩ and discussed disturbing new restrictions #taliban placing on Afghan media. ⁦@TOLOnews⁩ remains beacon of light for #Afghanistan.

This merits disengagement and international isolation of the #Taliban by international community. Will we stand up for #AfghanWomen?

So after almost 17 months of banning teenage girls from school. The Taliban decide to BAN women from universities too. Afghanistan is the ONLY country in the world that bans women and girls from going to school & university. This is a crime against humanity & it must not stand.

#Taliban basically asserting Doha agreement allows them to shelter #AlQaeda. Proves it was the worst agreement in US history. Not worth the paper on which it’s written.
