[🇵🇰] The Great Game: The Soviet KGB And Pakistan

[Bagheera0084]

1971

Huh? Are you still talking about that?

Here, Let me educate you.

What senior and authoritative figures on Pakistani matters and members of the original PDF, @Indus Pakistan, @RazPak aka @lastofthepatriots and @django say?

Only one has been quoted but they all say the same thing.

Everyone has an opinion, just like a rear end. I have them too.

What does it matter?

No one's word is gospel.

I am surprised in that - you with an Indian flag are propagating these divisive opinions (and re-inforcing them), trying to drive a wedge between the friendly people of Bangladesh and Pakistan. No amount of misguided Indian scheming and chicanery - which has been tried endlessly since the turn of the last century has been successful.

[H1]The great game: The KGB and Pakistan[/H1]
THIS country cannot last. This was the conclusion of Joseph Stalin as the Soviet Politburo examined the map of the two winged Pakistan that emerged from the Partition of the subcontinent in August 1947.
The Kremlin's "special relationship" on the subcontinent was with India, not Pakistan. Mrs Gandhi could not have won the Bangladesh war without New Delhi's Friendship Treaty with the USSR. December 1971 was a Cold War proxy battlefield in the rice paddy fields of East Bengal.
A quarter century later, General Secretary Brezhnev and KGB Chairman Yuri Andropov, the Russian spymaster who literally changed the map of the world, vindicated Stalin's prophecy. Most students of Pakistani politics are obsessed by the symbiotic relationship between the CIA, the Pentagon, the White House and the successive military dictatorships that have ruled Pakistan. My interest lies in the other great game played in the shadow world from Moscow Centre by the Soviet KGB, arguably the most ruthless and powerful secret intelligence agency on the planet at the time.
You still meet them in Moscow, St Petersburg, London, Geneva and Istanbul. Fluent Urdu or Pashto/Dari speakers, elegant Russians in their fifties now, men and women who once worked for various KGB residents in Kabul, Rawalpindi, Lahore and Karachi. The intelligence caches provided by KGB archivist Vasili Mitrokhin to an enigmatic English don at Corpus Christi College, deep in the Cambridge fens, exposed the KGB's systematic infiltration of Pakistan's GHQ and diplomatic corps, confirmed that Chairman Andropov and his agents of the KGB First Chief Directorate waged a secret war against my country from the moment of its creation.
This was the secret world's Great Game of the1980's, was the modern equivalent of the struggle between the late Victorian British Raj and the Romanov empire, fought in Afghanistan for the sake of the jewel in the crown. I had no idea at the time but, as a teenager in London, I attended several "Save Bhutto" campaign rallies for the first elected prime minister of Pakistan then awaiting the hangman's noose in Rawalpindi. I saw Mir Murtaza and Shahnawaz, the sons of Bhutto.
A seventeen year old knows nothing about the cynical calculations of intelligence agencies or the surreal logic of the Cold War. I was simply motivated by outrage that a military dictator named Zia had usurped the power that the people of Pakistan had bestowed on ZA Bhutto, my boyhood hero for whom I had sworn to dedicate my life as a diplomat, to learn French, Spanish German, Russian and Arabic in a lifelong quest that still continues. But on April 4th 1979, when Zia hanged Bhutto, something died in me. I vowed never to work for any government of Pakistan ruled by a military dictator and I never did.
The Kremlin's "special relationship" on the subcontinent was with India, not Pakistan. Mrs Gandhi could not have won the Bangladesh war without New Delhi's Friendship Treaty with the USSR. December 1971 was a Cold War proxy battlefield in the rice paddy fields of East Bengal. Andropov distrusted ZA Bhutto, thought him a Chinese agent of influence ever since he joined Ayub Khan's Cabinet as foreign minister in 1964, was disgusted by the idea of a Berkeley–Oxford educated Sindhi feudal landowner donning a Mao cap and waving his little Green Book. Bhutto visited Moscow twice but neither Brezhnev, Podgornyn or Gromyko reciprocated with a state visit to Islamabad. The Kremlin distrusted Bhutto's new friends and patrons in the Islamic world – the Pahlavi Shah of Iran, Saudi King Faisal, Colonel Gaddafi, the Gulf oil shaikhs. They were right. Mr Bhutto was no Marxist Leninist ideologue but a student of Machiavelli, Napoleon and Sun Tzu. He had no permanent friends, no permanent enemies, only permanent interests. His cynicism cost him his life.

three things

1. USSR was a failed project even in the last year of Josph Stalin himslef but some hoe lingerred on for another four decades but it was more deu to Paranoia against Global establishment which they called CAPITALISM which we now call DEEP STATE which looks more scialist than actual communists

2. As for the Great Game about Pakistan had more to do with British Crown and its JEWEL IN THE CROWN INDIA than Pakistanitself which actualy was createdas a buffer zone between Afghanistanand India after FALL OF BERLIN when British House of Lords was petrified about Loosing India since Two new Communist countries were carved out of Iran aftr Soviet southern armies came defeting the Nazi in CENTRAL AESA /CAUCUSSES as they had given up on Afghanistan wich already had a communist leaning govement and since they had great relations and Hold in Monarchy ruled Iran/Persia then

3. The Zulfiquar Ali Bhutto was niether a great Strategist nor a great Marxist/Scocialist ... we was a Cunning Barister who was born to Ex Diwan of Nawab of Junaghar & British Stooge Sir Shh Nawaaz Bhutto and a "Tawaiaf called LAKHI BAI" who were highly regarded as one of the actual fouding Fathers of "Two Ntion Theory" or how to rule over emotional and uneducated muslims by showing them Prnoia of EVIL HINDU ......

Z A Bhutto did the same who once called General Ayub Khan DADDY used poor Landless Muslim's that they will be gifted all those lands on which they worked and became a Mass leader on this propgandda and Got the power but when he was asked to diliver power he then created Bogey of Evil India and whole Pakistani nation was thrown into 1965 and then 1971 wars

And when he became absloute power icon he devised masterPlan To Make ATOM BOMB & use Afghanistan as STRATEGIC DEAPTH and used SOVIETS WANT WARM WATERS OF PAKISTAN BOGEY & for rest 50 years Pakistani Armed forces/ULEMMA or so called MILTARRY-MULLAH ALLIANCE and Beurocracy and Jeudicarry and WADHERRA-POLITICIAN class is milking Pakistani nation and results are in front of you
