In relation to Kulbhushan Jadhav , an Indian national who is in Pakistan 's custody since March 2016 and is being tried by a military court on alleged charges of being a R&AW agent , Sood says that Pakistan has no " leverage " over India because of this matter . In an interview in 2019 he stated , " No spy worth his salt will be caught with his passport . The charges against him are laughable . " When it comes to China-Pakistan links , Sood is of the opinion that China takes actions such as supporting Pakistan in the UNSC in relation to Masood Azhar because of fear of retaliation from Islamic groups in Xinjiang ( an autonomous region in China which partly borders Pakistan ) other than of course protecting their interests in Gilgit-Baltistan and Balochistan in relation to CPEC . When it comes to just China , Sood says that the capabilities of China are much more than Pakistan and that India should take note . This statement was made during a seminar on 17 February 2019 , three days after the Pulwama attack , where he had also said , " China in control of Pakistan is even worse . " In 2018 Sood wrote , '' The Unending Game : A Former R&AW Chief 's Insights into Espionage , '' published by Penguin Viking . According to Sood , his book is not a memoir but a beginner 's guide to espionage , a reference manual on intelligence . The book , which is divided into three concept related sections that are titled as " Tradecraft " , " Inside Intelligence " and " What Lies Ahead " , covers espionage during the two world wars , secret societies , psychological warfare in India , KGB and CIA interference in Indian politics , Pakistan and ISI , as well as intelligence failures in the world such as the 9/11 attacks and the 26/11 attacks among other things . Vappala Balachandran reviewed the book , writing that it is " a low-profile but solid contribution "
