Global power like Britain has an moral obligation to assess, reassess & assert it's order & rules of institutions, which it had put in place over the centuries, at lot of cost to all & everyone.
It is also obliged to counter threats to the existing order, from adversaries with malefic intentions of usurping the benefits of order, while undermining the very institutions they intend to destroy & replace with nothing in return, which current order sustains in spite of all its' shortcomings.
Afghanistan was always an important consideration due to it's strategic location. It was important for all powers, including wannabees like China.
China in 1938 had printed it's intent, which it went on to implement since. Recently during his evidence, Mr Kevin Rudd had strongly recommended for each country to have a strategy, independent of respective govts, to deal with China. Any country may have or may not have strategy to deal with China, but China, through it's United front works department, has strategy for each country.
No world domination or order is complete without domination of Indian subcontinent. China will not take over Pakistan & Afghanistan in bits & pieces, as it is doing elsewhere. Rather it will devour them slowly, with constriction of boa.
Pakistan should be made to understand that Chinese influence has made it sick to an an extent, that it may never recover without compromising it's sovereignty. It is in it's best interest to form an economic union of sorts with India to recover, with Britain playing role of facilitator.
Britain too have stakes in this region. When disciples evolve, then it is in best interest for master to be a facilitator/ be revered & wait it out,than to be seen as a competitor to young economies. Indians are like bubble in glass of water. Due to their philosophy & resilience, they have inherent capacity to rise again & again from dust, but they lack intent to dominate others.
Hope that Britain will be able to match up to it's glory.
