If —a very big "if" indeed — Pakistan can nudge the Taliban towards a reasonable political accommodation with Washington and Kabul, Rawalpindi's international stock would dramatically rise. So will the personal prestige of Imran Khan, who is now the political face of Pakistan. That in turn might significantly alter the way the Pakistan army views the context of the relationship with Delhi and define the boundary conditions for Imran's India policy.
Rather than debate India's future with Imran in terms of "loves me, loves me not," Delhi should focus on strengthening its position Afghanistan, which once again is poised to shape Pakistan's relations with India.
