The recent airstrikes and retaliatory attacks between India and Pakistan have once again brought South Asia to the brink of a devastating war, with civilian casualties mounting and millions living in fear. I would stand against all of this, condemning the nationalist rhetoric and military escalation on both sides, and highlighting how such conflicts serve entrenched elites while ordinary people pay the price. I would argue for de-escalation, dialogue, and cross-border solidarity movements, emphasizing the urgent need to divert resources from military spending to social welfare, healthcare, and climate resilience. I would also critique the role of global powers in fueling regional arms races and call for international mediation rooted in justice and peace.
