So when finally the US and the Arabs stop giving you money, they're the enemy now?
If only we were diplomatically and economically strong enough for Israel to even consider us a threat. Sorry to burst your bubble but the only thing having nukes confirm is that you'll be equally dead as the ones you used it on. Why is the UAE in everyone's crosshairs? Turkey and China have accepted Israel's sovereignty for much longer and have much better relations than any Pakistani would like to admit.
When you say east you should say China, because India has been playing their cards right for long enough to have Russia never consider you over them.
we're not getting the J-20, it's not for export, China is an ally, doesn't mean it's desperate enough to break it's own rules. We might've been pushing for the J-20 as a ploy to have China settle on the J-10 at favourable terms. Just my deduction. We'll only know for sure when either of them actually arrive.
Since creation of Israel, focal point of every event happening in the middle east is/was Israel.
Israel consider Pakistan as a serious threat to its very existence. Though the aerial distance between the two countries is less than 3300 km, but even than Israel tried to target Pakistani nuclear assets.
Pakistan stance on not recognizing Israel is directly linked to IOJK. Pakistan support fair deal for people of Palestine who were illegally ejected from their homeland.
With acquisition of F-35s and assess to bases in UAE will definitely enable Israeli AF to target Pakistani strategic and nuclear assets. One of the reasons why Israeli supported UAE to procure F-35s is apparently having an F-35 support base on UAE soil.
It is not in the interest of Israel, US and western allies, that
1 Strong eastern block be formed to challenge their market monopoly.
2. De-linking petro-dollar. (It will also effect Arab monarchies)
3. Pakistan becoming strong, economically independent and influential state in the region.
CPEC, Belt Road initiative and EAEU are the beginning of the western nightmare.
Pakistan being a weak link in this great game, is an obvious target. Indians are being used to directly offend and pressurize Pakistan to give away CPEC.
So in my opinion, if China consider CPEC as its one of the precious life line than China will open its arsenal to Pakistan Military.
J-20 and other weapon systems are very much a possibility.
Delivery of 50 hi tech Winglong 2 drones to Pakistan Military is one the indications, that China is very much serious.
History reveals that today's enemy is tomorrow's friend and vise versa. The great game is all about make and break the market monopoly and overall domination.
