In the backdrop of failed agreements, lost opportunities and active sabotage of attempted détentes, one instance of cooperation on a critical issue bucks this trend, and that is the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT). The treaty was signed in 1960 and has withstood the test of time, including three major wars. According to the treaty, India … [Read more...] about Pakistan’s insecurity, India’s leverage, and the most generous Indus Waters Treaty
