KSA needs to play clear role in Islamic world to maintain its position. By stopping Pakistan not to participate in Kaula lum pur conference would not work for longer time.

Saudi govt issues 'fact sheet' highlighting warmness of its ties with Pakistan

INP

9:02 PM | August 13, 2020


The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on Thursday issued a 'fact sheet' highlighting depth and warmness of its diplomatic ties with Pakistan.

It elaborated various phases of evergreen brotherly relations between the two countries. Sincerity and commitment between the two sides had been beyond any doubt.

The ‘fact sheet' stated that Saudi Arabia and Islamic Republic of Pakistan both enjoy exceptional and strong brotherly ties which keep the people of both the counties united and there exists a harmony between the leadership of both the countries on the matter related to common interests.

Saudi Arabia is strong supporter of Pakistan and has extended a great deal economic and development assistance to Pakistan at historical junctures.

Riyadh had extended financial assistance package of six billion dollars to Pakistan when the incumbent Prime Minister Imran Khan after coming to power delivering his first speech had said that Pakistan had never faced such a situation in the history where the financial deficit for the year 2017-08 had reached 6.6 percent of the GDP.

Half of the deposited amount was meant to give a boost to the foreign exchange reserves.

Besides, Mohammad Bin Salman Al Saud, Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, had made an announcement during his visit to Islamabad in February 2019 that the kingdom will invest 20 billion dollars in various fields in Pakistan.

It is to mention here that unlike loans and development assistance deposited amount is returned according to laid down term and condition.

In the light of the above mentioned facts we have closely analysed articles and statements which have sarcastically targeted strong ties between Islamabad and Riyadh and tried to substantiate that Saudi Arabia does not extends its support to Pakistan against the disputed stance of India on the issue of Jammu and Kashmir.

In fact, this kind of notions and ideas were absolutely erroneous and unfounded.

Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, had sent his foreign minister Faisal Bin Farhan to Islamabad for support and solidarity of Pakistan after a surge tension between Pakistan in 2019.
The then Minister for Information Fawad Chaudhry on March 2019 had announced that Saudi Arabia has played a vital role in diffusion of military tension between Pakistan and India.

Chaudhry in his televised assertion had said that Saudi Arabia had made persuaded various countries including UAE and United States to play their role to prevent India from its aggressive designs.

And when government of India announced culmination of Indian constitutional autonomous status in August 2019, Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan had made a telephonic call to Mohammad Bin Salman Al Saud Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia and according to Saudi official press agency both the dignitaries had exchanged matters relating to developments in the region.

And Mr. Khan had also informed latest situation in Kashmir.

In August 2019, Saudi foreign ministry while giving views on revoking the Article 370 of the Indian Constitution giving special status to Jammu and Kashmir expressed his grave concern over the situation.

Referring to the role of OIC, it was stated that this is an independent international Islamic organization and it is chaired by various personalities belonging to Islamic countries. This organization has played its vital role for the Kashmir cause.

The OIC had constituted a coordination committee on the issue of Jammu and Kashmir in 1994 in Jeddah. The committee is meeting regularly and it last meeting held in June 22, 2020.

All policies, diplomatic and political stance of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia including it stance on Kashmir dispute is deviate from playing with emotions and popularism.

The two countries will remain together for all times, taking care of their core interests, the fact sheet added.

Did they address SMQ demands on Kashmir at OIC? No.

Did they address early loan repayment? No.

Did they address UAE acceptance of Israel? No.

How about some facts about those?

 

[batmannow]

A fact sheet from Pakistan should be issued

OH no, it's simple KSA should go and make its democratic country and fce its dm probelm with huttis of yeman let Iran help huttis and eat popcorn

 

[American Pakistani]

Sorry for off topic but somebody mentioned Saudi banning AL Bakistanis from holy visits. IMO holy cities of Mecca and Medina should be an independent state by itself under OIC and IMTF.

 

[Armchair]

Saudis should be told quietly that Pak protects them militarily, and as long as Pakistanis are employed in Saudi, this will continue. Beyond this, Pakistan will set its own foreign policy which will not be held hostage by them.

Sectarian inspired hatred of Iran and the silence on the gulf Arab alliances with Hindu fascists and zionists, is the way to go for Pakistan?

U mean to say sectarian inspired hatred of saudi? Its a well established fact that iran is a sectarian snake that keeps exporting its sectarianism and uses sect to gain influence in countries. By the way, iran till yesterday was a puppy of these hindu facists and taking their money to build chabahar and give them access to Afghanistan and central asia. Overnight that changed n suddenly sectarian mullajs became trustworthy??? Kulbhushan is still alive n ask him how iran helped RAW. Atleast the GCC have never acted like iran against Pakistan. Pakistanis lose their brains when it comes to iran or maybe it is the sectarian affilliations.

“On the matter related to common interests”

Putting their finances at risk by challenging India on Kashmir is not in the interests of the Gulf Arabs. They have $3-4 Trillion invested in Western markets and depend on them for funding when oil prices are down. This is what matters to most of the current leaders in the Gulf. Also they fear their Shia population could rebel against them under the influence of Iran, and they would lose their government or worse.

In the backdrop of all this, Pakistan needs to understand that they (The Gulf Arabs) don’t move unless they are almost certain it will have an impact. If the Kashmiris were on the verge of being recognized globally as a free people, then at the last moment they perhaps would join in, similar to a Kosovo. This is why “Trickledown” diplomacy doesn’t work and a grassroots/people movement amongst the Kashmiris that gets global recognition is the only way.

At a government level, Pakistan should build up the infrastructure and livelihoods if the Kashmiris people in Asad Kashmir and Gilgit/Baltistan, generally build up the national economy. I can’t stress this enough, economic power is the key.

China doesn’t support an independent Kashmir, especially now that they are building dams there. It is Pakistan, China, and Kashmiris interest that Pakistan builds up Pakistan's economy to it maximum potential ($2 trillion by 2050 as estimated by the world bank, from the current $280-320 Billion). In the mean time the Kashmiris work on independence/freedom from India and wait for their opportunity when India stumble, as what happened with East and West Germany and the Soviet Union.

In the mean time, what’s said is said but need not be said again by SMQ. The signal has been sent and received loud and clear.

The Saudis by releasing this fact sheet are helping smooth over the incident. They are telling us that they don’t want to be pulled into the Kashmir issue and don’t want to see Pakistan make them lose face. They especially don’t want a conference where Iran is invited on the matter. (Besides Iran can flip back to India if it suits their interests, so we shouldn’t count on the Iranians)

Pakistan also needs to study the failures in the last 30 years of the Palestinian cause, and what types of diplomatic efforts work and not indulging in efforts the feels good but is ultimately futile.

The young Princes of the Gulf Arabs have given up on the Palestinian cause because their forefathers left them no realistic way to achieve it.

If we are to make efforts, we need to make sure they are after a careful study of what works and what doesn’t, diplomatically, socially, economically, and politically, so that when the time comes the Kashmiris are not in the position the Palestinians are in right now.
