Pakistan Will Remain Major Security Concern, Threat for Times to Come: Ex-CDS Chauhan
Anil Chauhan said India and China should keep engaging as major Asian powers while border tensions remain unresolved and long-term challenges persist.
- On Saturday, former CDS Anil Chauhan warned that Pakistan's recent joint defence agreement with Saudi Arabia and Turkiye may induce "overconfidence," potentially leading Islamabad to make another "miscalculation."
- Pakistan will remain a "major security concern," Gen Chauhan said, emphasizing that India must maintain credible deterrence through cross-border operations like Operation Sindoor to raise the cost of proxy wars.
- Addressing northern neighbor China, Gen Chauhan noted that while the boundary issue remains unresolved, bilateral ties "cannot be held hostage" to tensions, citing recent talks between National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang.
- Global security is facing a "durable kind of a disorder" where old balances are weakening, Gen Chauhan cautioned, making international alignments increasingly transactional and issue-based.
- Future warfare will favor forces that adapt quickly, Gen Chauhan said, urging the military to prioritize "jointness and integration" alongside self-reliance to succeed across land, sea, and cyber domains.
