From Karachi to Kandahar Is the Arc of Terror Aflame Again | Sushant Sareen

Raisina Dialogue 2023 | From a state supporting terrorists to terrorists with a state of their own, the challenge for international security has only grown with the expanding footprint of religious radical organisations and the ambivalence of the international community. Instead of forging a common front to combat terrorism, states have chosen to see the phenomenon from the perspective of narrow interests and geopolitical rivalries. The result: Terrorism is metastasizing and the world is fighting it in a piecemeal, ad hoc manner.

Is outsourcing the war against terror workable? Will assisting Pakistan, which continues to see the Taliban as a workable solution and not an intractable problem, help in containing the threat of terrorism emanating from Afghanistan? Is there any strategy in the fight against terrorism—beyond fire-fighting? Do existing mechanisms to counter terror financing work or have they become outdated and mired in competitive geopolitics?

Every year, leaders in politics, business, media, and civil society converge in New Delhi to discuss the state of the world and explore opportunities for cooperation on a wide range of contemporary matters. The Dialogue is structured as a multi-stakeholder, cross-sectoral discussion, involving heads of state, cabinet ministers, and local government officials, who are joined by thought leaders from the private sector, media, and academia.

The conference is hosted by the Observer Research Foundation in partnership with the Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India. This effort is supported by a number of institutions, organisations and individuals, who are committed to the mission of the conference.
