Najam Sethi speaking during a TV show:

“We are not ready for such an onslaught, such a diplomatic onslaught. I don't think our diplomats are strong and articulated enough to counter this onslaught. And I think you need to galvanize academics and also think tankers, but not bureaucrats. They are very timid people and they do not cross red line. In issues like these, you have to be a little more aggressive and charming.”

“You need to know the lingo, the culture, how to reach across. Sometimes you need to sit in a pub and talk about these things. Sometimes you need to take a walk in the park. Sometimes you also need to mix a little bit of humor, sarcasm. You know, this is diplomacy, person-to-person. Charm is very important.”

Sarcasm? about dead civilians? singled out based on their religion? This is diplomacy?

najam sethi did not mention that women should go to pubs and drink etc...

If he said that, please bring out that video for proof... Otherwise stop posting irrelevant and useless stuff

Sethi should be given job as a Pakistani diplomat in Britain. He could probably get to sit in a pub over here and discuss sensitive matters in the right setting.

At the end of the day, this is the inevitable truth, India will not be able to bypass diplomacy, not just with Pakistan, but with every neighbor it shares a border with. Geography doesn’t change, and neither does the need for dialogue.

And if peace is truly the goal, then the practice of asking for ethnicity in Pakistan before pulling a trigger, or religion in Kashmir before granting humanity, will have to end.

He clearly referred to it.
Anchor also blushed at it and said she understood what he was referring to. Perhaps he was referring to more than just drinking and stuff

I doubt Najam Sethi even knows what a pub looks like these days. His idea was probably based on a couple of generations ago when men went to the pub with their friends to discuss football and other issues while the wife stayed at home and put the kids to bed until he rolled in inebriated. These days in an age of equality, the husband might stay at home looking after the kids waiting until she rolls home inebriated.

You’re underestimating the uncles.

He meant exactly what he meant.

Still has more spark than Khwaja Dar and Lil Shariff, at least gets ppl talking.

It is, but that doesn't mean people don't do it.
