This is a random post with some genuine questions. Please its a request dont troll. Please. Pretty please.
So I was just going through the list of members of MTCR and saw Turkey's name there and was confounded as to why did they support our bid in MTCR when according to some Pakistani members even if china changed its stance in NSG , Turkey would always be the last man standing for them. Now turkey is also there in Wassenar Arrangement and Australia group and again I dont see them having any reservations about India's membership. So can we conclude from this that if we are somehow able to get China on board, Turkey wouldn't want to be the lone thorn to India's NSG bid.
Wassenar and MTCR I think are more important than NSG since joining these groups would really disturb the conventional arms technology and even industrial technological balance. Pakistan should have tried to scuttle India's bid or at least tried to delay it. I think Pakistan foreign policy had a huge lapse here. Pakistan did whatever it could do to scuttle India's NSG bid and this was really a commendable job. Being successful or not doesn't matter when you've tried best to your ability which Pakistan did in this case and eventually succeeded in delaying India's bid or possibly stalling it. My two cents are that Pakistan should have atleast protested India's entry to MTCR and (Wassenar later this year) even if they didn't want to use diplomatic support from Turkey and other nations.
My two questions are
1) Why didn't pakistan give enough attention to MTCR and Wassenar or is it just relying on China for its interest?
2) Will Turkey become the villain if its the last one against the majority in NSG ( MTCR suggests it wont)?
