As Sri Lanka’s new government seeks a foreign policy reset, Beijing may turn to a more unorthodox strategy to court Colombo - one that involves an ancient monk named Faxian and his 5th century trip to the island…

Some key points from my article for @RSAsianAffairs 🧵 1/7

Beijing’s heavy Belt and Road investment in #Pakistan now faces mounting risks, as political instability and strained ties with #Afghanistan complicate #China’s regional calculus.

Pakistan’s Use of Transnational Repression to Crush Dissent.

From the Diplomat:

[marcus andreopoulos @marcusandre__]

My latest article for @Diplomat_APAC examines recent allegations of transnational repression carried out by the Pakistani state, and explores what these mean for Pakistani dissidents as well as the country’s relations with Western governments.

[The Diplomat @Diplomat_APAC]

The Pakistani state and its powerful military establishment have resorted to increasingly drastic measures to deter critics from voicing their opposition, wherever they may be in the world. https://t.co/IbJtZYdEIg

[The Geopolitics @GeopoliticsMag]

Pakistan–Saudi Arabia’s new “mutual defence” pact reshapes Middle East security. Beyond deterrence, it hints at a nuclear umbrella, strategic autonomy from Washington, and new risks of regional proliferation.

As Donald Trump continues to disrupt geopolitics, little attention has been paid to #Pakistan's development of ICBMs with the aid of #China and what implications this could have for regional and international security. Marcus Andreopolous explains here - https://t.co/ywKEQLY7uF

"While dealing with the military-backed government may assist Trump in reaching short-term agreements, constant disorder and popular uprisings will make it impossible for the benefits of such agreements to ever be felt" https://t.co/lA3SZcIaHO | by @marcusandre__

[marcus andreopoulos @marcusandre__]

In my latest piece for @inkstickmedia, I take a closer look at Trump’s recently announced oil deal with Pakistan. Given previous unsuccessful attempts at oil exploration, rising militancy, & China’s entrenched presence, there is cause for scepticism.

Last month, Israel took the unprecedented step of proscribing the Central Bank of Iran. I unpack this decision in a new piece for @GPMonitor, and discuss how it factors into Israeli strategy for deterring Iran.

@RoushJackW @thehill Excellent piece Jack

[Jack Roush @RoushJackW]

In a new piece for @thehill, I examine how the IRI is seeking to secure new commitments from its European partners, Serbia and Belarus, following its exchange of strikes with Israel and the U.S.

Pakistan’s drone blitz on India marks a turning point—powered by Turkish UAVs. As Ankara and Islamabad tighten military ties, drone warfare emerges as the new frontline in South Asia’s high-stakes conflict. https://t.co/8NifwEel1p
