Moderator:
Pakistan is mired in a multidimensional crisis with political, social, economic, and security implications. General elections are scheduled for late January 2024, extending the caretaker government’s term by three months. The influential Pakistani security establishment appears more in control today than it has been in recent years.
Inflation remains at an all-time high, and Pakistan’s economic growth has slowed as the agricultural and manufacturing sectors contract. The country’s domestic weakness is reflected in its foreign relations. Terrorist attacks by Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) from safe havens in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan remain a challenge for Pakistan.
Join Ambassador Husain Haqqani, senior fellow and director of Hudson’s South and Central Asia Program, for a conversation on this and more with Amber Rahim Shamsi, Asfandiyar Mir, Aqil Shah, and Uzair Younus.
