    The Day Water Diplomacy Died: Inside the Indus Crisis
    Aug 18 2025

    When India suspended the Indus Waters Treaty on April 23rd, 2025, it marked the end of 65 years of successful water diplomacy. This episode analyses the catalyst, underlying vulnerabilities, and cascade effects of this unprecedented crisis. From Pakistan's agricultural dependency to China's strategic positioning and market responses, we examine how a single terrorist attack transformed water from a shared resource into a strategic weapon - and why this is a preview of conflicts to come.
