After the proceedings at the SCO Summit venue, President Putin and I travelled together to the venue of our bilateral meeting. Conversations with him are always insightful.
Went to an Indian restaurant in Athens I hadn’t tried before. Inspected menu & there were no halal stamps or beef items. Saw photos of the restaurant online & the art was authentic depictions of folk India. But of course, when I arrive, they were undercover Pakistanis once again.
A Pakistani tried to scam a British guy in Birmingham, UK.
British Guy: You think you are special?? Pakistani?? No wonder, Indians are bombing you guys. You are never gonna win that battle.
Pakistanis get cooked everywhere they go. 😭
Pakistan has officially accepted 130 soldiers Killed in Action during failed Op Banyan Ul Marsoos by awarding them posthumous awards
If 130 have officially got awards, that means there are far more body bags (300-350 dead)
India slaughtered Sepoys in wholesale rate
India lost 5 soldiers, and 0 fighter pilot
This is unprecedented assymetry
Veer Chakra (wartime gallantry) to Rafale Pilots, confirms strategic role of Rafale in ground attack on night of 7th May
Where are all the Pakistan Premi and Bhosadpiller who tried to spin different narrative?
India shot down five Pakistani fighter jets and one other military aircraft during fighting in May, India’s air force chief says, the first such statement from the country since the deadly conflict with its neighbour ⤵️ https://t.co/i9AO0gyvwA
Key takeaways from IAF Chief speech:
1. S-400 shot down five Pakistani jets. One AWACS/ELINT was hit mid-air, another at Bholari destroyed, plus US's F-16s on the ground were hit.
2. India likely kept this information confidential to avoid denting the reputation of US-made F-16s and straining ties with US, which were not bad at that time. Such calls aren’t about ego; deciding what to reveal, what to withhold, and for how long requires careful strategic judgement. I’m sure keeping it under wraps then was the prudent choice.
3. There was absolutely no pressure from the govt to hold back as claimed by Indian opposition.
4. Timing matters, and this revelation makes it clear the govt has no intention of pampering Trump. That’s excellent.
5. The Chief expressed disappointment that despite the success in Balakot, they couldn’t convince their own people. This highlights how negative politics and opposition forces siding with the enemy can erode the morale of our armed forces.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. Jai Hind.
