Pakistan’s army chief Asim Munir recently made wild headlines in the US, casually threatening nuclear apocalypse at a private dinner. He claimed that if India ever attacked, Pakistan would "take half the world down" with it. Yes, really.
In this episode, defence journalist Sandeep Unnithan joins host Dev Goswami to unpack what’s behind this latest nuclear sabre-rattling. Why would Pakistan’s top general say something so reckless — and why now, and in Florida of all places?
We also dive into:
-The factors behind the US’s new-found but old love for the Pakistan military
-The "Mercedes vs dump truck" analogy
-The US designation of Baloch Liberation Army as a terror group, timed right after Munir’s visit
-How Pakistan developed nukes so fast after India’s 1998 Pokhran tests
-The legend of US control over Pakistan’s nuclear button
-How worried should India be about Asim Munir’s comments
