Namaste everyone! Very often those of us from Nepal pay limited attention to the political conversations happening beyond India, China, and the West. To partially correct that, host Slok Gyawali speaks with Dr. Khurram Abbas, Research Fellow at Islamabad Policy Research Insititute (IPRI) about Imran Khan's innings as prime minister, why Pakistan has shied away from normalizing relations with Israel, and the different approaches India and Pakistan take in their relations to Gulf countries. We also talk about why some Pakistanis cheered the Taliban victory in Afghanistan and the return of cricket to Pakistan.
