ECONOMICS OF WAR

The Soviet Union had 65,000 nuclear weapons before its fragmentation: possession of nuclear weapons may not guarantee security, integrity and prosperity

Cost of one day of war: US $500 Million.

If our country goes at the ideal rate of 6%, which in itself is a high claim, it will take 35-40 years for it to become a Middle Income Country. Both the countries, India and Pakistan are already in the most entangling poverty trap.

Lessons are also to be learnt from Europe.

The current foreign policy has turned friends into adversaries. So the future war with India may have to be fought alone.
