Only a "friendly" stable Pakistan is of use to India. We can make a lot of money from their market. And thats what maybe the politicians mean when they say that. Otherwise and unfriendly Pakistan, whether stable or not makes no difference to India. It will have to keep fighting its war against terror.
Interesting concepts..No. Not in the near or mid term future. Like TR said, its only when the saner elements come to center stage that its possible. But for that the PA and ISI has to lose its culture and become a subordinate of democracy.
The PA has agreed to come under the current GOP so it is a start. That was statement from the COAS himself. Also the US is accepting his statement. They have not themselves said other wise.
BUT
First you have to get to the point of that friendly Pakistan idea starting.
This will not happen if you leave Pakistan to its own devices. It needs guidance like all learning children.
You can not have a friendly Pakistan unless there is a friendly attitude to Pakistan from India. Oddly enough it is a two way process.
Ok there are problems of what appears in insurmountable proportions. But if you want a friendly Pakistan something has to start to get over these mountains.
I am old so I am allowed to reminisce in the past and denounce my enemy for the rest of my life. I am not required to progress I am allowed to hold a grudge. This is the prerogative of my age.
Most of you are not yet in this special group where you can keep holding grudges. You are in the generation where foresight leadership is to come from I hope. You are the group who should be looking at solutions not perpetrating the grudges we old ones hold.
You are supposed to lead us oldies out of our hatred.
But I see from this thread that is something not possible.
There will be no friendly Pakistan; there will be no friendly India.
