Kissinger fears Pakistan could become a ‘failed state’
Press Trust of India 17 Nov 08 New Delhi, Nov 16 (PTI) Fearing that Pakistan could become a “failed state”, former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger today said the Barack Obama administration will be faced with the challenge of preventing that as it could be an “extraordinary” situation considering that Pakistan has nuclear weapons.
Kissinger also suggested that the George W Bush government had “failed” on the Afghanistan front and said the next regime will have to conduct re-evaluation of the problem posed by the war-torn country.

  1. A state can only be called a failed state when its people stop desiring it . The people of Pakistan desire to remain Pakistani . A invader can only alter the borders slightly . But cannot kill the Nation .

    Pakistan can become poor , may even be unable to pay its debts . But will still remain Pakistani . Just look at the India . The country was ruled by the ancestors of what is now Pakistan and Afghanistan for over 950 years . Then conquered by the British , whole ruled for 100 years or so . But Indian remained Indian and now they have a independent country .
