Please give an answer to this question
If one country takes an aggressive stance against another country, should the other country also respond aggressively? Can there be other ways of handling the problem?
question is worded so vaguely that it can’t really be answered. Of course there’s almost always a choice among different responses to aggressive acts. But what specific aggressive act are you talking about? A couple of soldiers cross the border for a few minutes and steal some cigarettes from a store? Or somebody drops a dozen nukes on large cities? And what’s the history behind the incident? Stuff like that
watch Ajit Doval speech over youtube where he spoke how should we treat with countries like pakistan. he has explained in a technical way.
