THINK TANK: CONSULTANT
When did i dispute india is not a successor state. But it's not so simple. I provided the history behind it and the fact it was not an automatic right.
It was disputed by the Muslim League/Pakistan, it was negotiated and ultimately accepted as part of a settlement.
That doesn't mean the people shouldn't have had the right to choose whether they wish to be part of india or not. They did not decide, they were thrown into india.
I provided you a detailed factual argument, all you can do is rehash and parrot the same statement with more words. this is beyond absurd.
Your opening statement was flatly incorrect: "India was not a successor state." Your words, not my paraphrase.....
And Pakistan's position was not accepted, before partition or after.... Not on the name.... Not on the drafting..... Not at the UN.... India kept the seat and the treaty rights. Pakistan applied and was admitted as a new member.
You keep telling me it was contested. It was. It was contested and it was lost, and those are not the same thing.
Claiming India was not a successor state on the basis of a position that was never accepted, and that Pakistan itself conceded by applying for membership, is what is actually absurd here....
