..An eye opener
by Sankalp Pande on Apr 21, 2005 01:02 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

The only way to stop confilct beetween the two countries is to
strengthen the political and ecnomic ties between the two countries.
The european union is the best example for this. When so many
SMALL countries with different cultures, languages can work together
for the ecnomic upliftment of their trade and people, then why cant
two neighbouring nuclear countries work on the same ground, to
make these two countries totally indeoandant. i beleieve only then
can we stop worrying about pressure form other poweful nations

Dear friend,
I do not understand why u would want to equate the indian subcontinent scenario with europe. The european union has diff cultures and diff languages. But what they do not have is pathalogical hatred for each other. AND a genuine desire for PROGRESS AND WELL BEING OF THIER CITIZENS.
That, my friend is not the case with countries like pakistan and bangladesh. Progress and development are alien concepts for these countries living with medival mindsets.
If there is peace, it will be good for all. And I would certainly like to see that happening. But I have some serious doubts about our neighbours intentions....Kutte ki dum....

What EU is trying to acheive, we already acheived more than 50 years ago. We too have many different cultures and beliefs across India, but still we are one country. So its other way round, EU is trying to acheive what India has already acheived.

cheers
venkata
