Pakistan has kind of always been doomed. It’s a testament to the grit of the country and the savvy of (some) of its leaders that it has survived this long. We discuss Pakistan’s challenges in today’s podcast. But I also wrote on the incredible potential of Pakistan’s region, and why we should pay more attention to it in today’s substack.
