Islamabad, Pakistan (CNN) Pakistan has named a new army chief as the country faces a host of complex issues, from potential war with India, terrorism, and Donald Trump. Lt. Gen. Qamar Javed Bajwa attends a military exercise on the Indian border in Bahawalpur district on November 16. Nevertheless, Bajwa's appointment provides Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi an opportunity to "recalibrate and reset (India's) policy towards Kashmir and Pakistan," Masood said. Rifaat Hussain, a professor of public policy at Pakistan's National University of Science and Technology, said Bajra has "extensive experience of handling Kashmir." Ensuring that "violent and extremist forces in the country are marginalized" will be a major challenge facing Bajwa, according to Hussain.
