Nov 8, 2023
The podcast discusses the forced exodus of Afghans from Pakistan and its implications on the domestic politics of Pakistan. It explores the reasons behind the expulsion, including Pakistan's weak state, high inflation, debt issues, and rise in terrorist attacks. The lack of a relationship between the Afghan population in Pakistan and violence or terrorism is examined, along with the overwhelmed capacity of the UNHCR office. The complex dynamic between the US and Pakistan, and the impact of US policy in the region, are also debated.
