After Kidwai declared Pakistan’s red lines in 2002, then-Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf repeated them later that year. But India has never formally stated its red line against cross-border terrorism or the consequences for violating it. By contrast, Pakistan’s nuclear doctrine permits first use if it perceives that India has crossed one of its thresholds. Pakistan continues to export terrorism despite evidence, UN designations of terrorist groups, diplomatic efforts, and Indian military responses. Pakistan continues to utilize terrorism because India has not made it dread what might come next.
