WHAT IS A COLD WAR AND COLD WAR
BETWEEN PAKISTAN AND INDIA
• A cold war is a state of conflict between nations that does not involve direct military
action but is pursued primarily through economic and political actions, propaganda, acts
of espionage or proxy wars waged by surrogates.The Cold War is different from other
wars because there was no physical fighting like in World War II or any other war.
• Territorial disputes over the Kashmir region sparked two of the three major Indo-
Pakistani wars in 1947 and 1965, and a limited war in 1999. Although both countries
have maintained a fragile cease-fire since 2003, they regularly exchange fire across the
contested border, known as the Line of Control.
HOW DIFFERENT MEDIATER AND UN CAN BRING
BETTERMENT?
• China as a mediator in disputes with Pakistan. India’s resentment of and
diplomatic campaign against hyphenation with Pakistan is pronounced and has key implications
for China’s capacity to play a third-party role in any India-Pakistan conflict. Although India has
allowed some space for third parties, largely the United States, to play a role in major crises with
Pakistan, it insists that long-standing tensions like disputed territory in Kashmir are bilateral
issues.
• The United Nations has played an advisory role in maintaining peace and order in the Kashmir
region soon after the independence of India and Pakistan in 1947, when a dispute erupted
between the two States on the question of Jammu and Kashmir.
CONSEQUENCES OF THIS COLD
WAR
• Creation of Bangladesh (birth of a new nation)
• Indo-Soviet friendship
• Bid to acquire nuclear war
• Signing of Shimla agreement in June 1972 for restoration of peace and
order between two states.
• Myth of superiority of Islamic armies busted.
CAN THIS COLD WAR LEAD TO WWIII
• With the initiation of the Cold War arms race in the 1950s, an apocalyptic
war between the United States and the Soviet Union became a real
possibility. During the Cold War era (1947–1991), a number of military
events have been described as having come quite close
to potentially triggering World War III. Pakistan's prime minister
recently threatened to go to war with India over the disputed Kashmir
region. Both nations are armed with nuclear weapons. If India and
Pakistan have a nuclear war, scientists say it could trigger Ice-Age
temperatures, cause global famine, and kill 125 million people.
