Vienna (Austria), May 16, 2025 (ANI): On recent India Pakistan conflict and Operation Sindoor, Military aviation analyst and historian Tom Cooper analyzed the points which made Pakistan unable to defend itself and left it with no other option but to ask for ceasefire. Speking to ANI, He said, "...#OperationSindoor was partly successful in regard of destroying the terror infrastructure, but highly successful in regards of significantly weakening Pakistan to the degree where it became unable to defend itself from conventional strikes of the Indian armed forces and had no ability to strike back on India and had no other option but to ceasefire." “...They, Shehbaz Sharif and Asim Munir, are the first to know the situation. They both know they have been defeated. They both know that rumours will not be sustained and the truth will soon reach the people," says Tom Cooper, Military aviation analyst and historian, when being asked about the Pakistani PM Shahbaz Sharif and Army chief Asim Munir touring a military base to address the military personnel by climbing over a tank. Tom Cooper says, "This messaging is classic for Pakistan. Essentially, we have a situation of the country and its population, which has been indoctrinated to believe in Pakistani military superiority vis-à-vis India... They climb on top of the tank, as they must rebuild the morale and self-confidence of the nation..."
