Russia Leaves India Stunned By Backing 2000 Km China-Pakistan Business Corridor

[Hakikat ve Hikmet]

Credit to India to be honest. India spent lots of money advertising on Pakistan. There is saying that any publicity is good publicity.

Thank to India's advertising, Pakistan is truly isolated now.

My favorite is the blocking of the sale of 8 F16s. In one shot Paks are like "free at last"!!!!!

CPEC is just a start

As our infrastructure grows and our energy situation is resolved Pakistan is set to become one of the largest economies in the world

CPEC is just part of the process

Pakistan is a nation of 200 million on the cusp of major economic growth

your energy situation will never be resolved

I do not think India has anything to do with the 8 F-16s sale to PAF
They are happy the deal fell apart

The rouble has gained 19 per cent against the US dollar since January, making it the world’s best-performing currency so far this year. The resurgence is letting Russian tourists return to destinations that use a dollar-pegged currency such as Dubai. Ilya Naymushin / Reuters

If Russia has to grow economically it must stave off from extreme dependence on European markets..

Turkey and Russia are chalking a plan to do mutual trade, investment and tourism in local currencies. No wonder the Russian ambassador to Turkey was gunned down by a proxy...

power generation plants are great. they are good for bottom lines of Chinese suppliers.

Russia appears to be in a "payback" mode. It started with Crimea, which was last saved with the Ottoman supports. And, now it's like Afganistan, which was secured with Pak supports. Russian warming with Turkey and Pak are for a reason. The west is losing them both at an exponential rate due to their "winners take all" myopic policies. Ultimately it will be the turn of the Western Europe. Who do they depend? Uncle Sam? He's dead and gone. Uncle Trump can close his multi billion dollar casinos without blinking his eyes even for once. One needed to have visited Trump Tower and Taj Mahal at the Atlantic City!!! The West will understand the value of Turkey and Pak, but maybe it'll be too late for them...

no you should not go there.. if you go there you will be lynched..

When you are growing annually 4 times as fast as 99% of the world econmies[/QOUTE]
does that 99% includes china and America?

When you have $400 billion in the bank account.

still not at $400 billion

and your trade deficit is almost $350 billion

This breeds a certain confidence and arrogance

Arrogance in front of Super Power, thats the bad thing.

This means as a indian you don't really care what Russia or any one else is doing . as you are climbing getting stronger and stronger yourself to the point every other nation is irelevant

what if Russia says the same and block the Spare parts for india..
how many days will indian armed forces survive without russian spare parts..

When you are growing annually 4 times as fast as 99% of the world econmies

does that %99 includes China and America.

"Even if Russia does stay from CPEC and do not engage in any kind of bilateral agreements/cooperation, what benefit will India get from it? They need to look out for their own interests as well. Isolation of Pakistan isn't the only way of eliminating terrorism. They should look/find out where there is possibility for co-operation by Pakistan with the help of Russia/China for resolving issues that has been a hindrance in our progress."

Wrong, my friend.

PAF currently operates a fleet of 70 F-16 aircraft of different blocks. American support is necessary to keep this fleet operational and combat-effective. It is a huge investment and Pakistan will not ditch it anytime soon. F-16 aircraft proved their mettle in battles and will continue to do so in the near future because the platform is evolving. PAF needs them to counter IAF.

JF-17 Thunder aircraft are replacing lesser aircraft in the PAF inventory but not the F-16, not even close. Both JF-17 Thunder and F-16 aircraft will be the mainstay of PAF in years to come.

It's not F16s per se, but the sequential de-leveraging process as far as Pak-US relationship is concerned. Couple it with Turkey, and Eurasia is looking like lost altogether. Not that Mr. Trump has any "paradise lost" syndrome to begin with...

 

[Kamikaze Pilot]

India and Russia are working on north south corridor along with Iran and Afghanistan. This is going to be a major project for the mentioned four nations along with former soviet nations.

Chinese are using Pakistan to confuse India and Russia.
This is part and parcel of beijings game to drive a wedge between India and Russia. Both India and Russia knows importance of strategic relationship between India and Russia for the peace and stability of Asia.

There will always be a tough competition for china in Asia and things will be tougher from here for china.

Pakistan is just a pawn whose world revolves around cpec and china.

Sounds like a typical my post.

indian says: "Pakistan's energy situation will NEVER be resolved".

Pre-May 1998, indians were all saying: "Pakistan will NEVER EVER become a nuclear weapons state with or without Chinese assistance ".

See the irony there? As all indian predictions about Pakistan are destined to fail
Truth trumps delusional indian bollywood fantasies

Bro,

This is an illusion and people are falling for it.

Why do you think Russian economy is tanking? Due to American policies. Russia desires friendly terms with the US to fix this problem to an extent (Trump administration might give Russia some breathing space in this regard). Since oil prices are low, Russia is left with no option but to tap Asian economic corridors to sustain its economy; Russia has already embraced INSTC for the said purpose and might be willing to tap CPEC for similar reasons.

If Russia abandons India, it will jeopardize its standing in INSTC and loose access to a huge market; Russian economy will sink further as a consequence. Therefore, Russia is likely to tap both INSTC and CPEC to its benefit but will not pick sides in this case.

If Russia taps CPEC, fellow Pakistani might perceive it as a milestone of its foreign policy. Expect to witness moments of euphoria and celebrations in Pakistan in response to this kind of development.

However, Russia is not abandoning India, period. Russian economic situation does not permits it to.

And no matter what, Pakistan is not ending its diplomatic ties with the US to appease any other state. American leverage extends to both defense-related and economic fronts in Pakistan. Pakistan's economy is in dire situation in current times and IMF is resuscitating it. USAID is also involved in various projects in Pakistan for the benefit of common man. CPEC will offer some economic reprieve in the long-term but it cannot sustain Pakistani economy on its own.

Pakistan seeks to diversify its defense-related investments by involving Turkey and China and therefore the hype. Turkey is important to us in this regard.

IMO, Pakistan should have decent relations with Russia, Turkey, US and China and encourage investment from all of them in order to defeat Indian designs and economically prosper. This is a challenging task but doable. Pakistan should stay away from any COLD WAR. We have suffered enough from our involvement in the earlier one. If my country is smart, it will carve its our own path to supremacy and not depend on a single entity to function.
