🇵🇰Pivot to Pakistan: Gulf states look beyond US military
Pakistan finds itself increasingly in demand as a security partner across the Persian Gulf.
It has deployed troops to Saudi Arabia, held discussions with Qatar about the latter joining the Pakistani-Saudi defense pact, and received a request from Bahrain to help train the kingdom’s pilots. There also growing high-level military contacts between Pakistan and Oman, Kuwait, and Lebanon.
This shift comes as Gulf states grow disillusioned with U.S. security guarantees after American bases on their territory were hit by Iranian missiles and drones.
"It is expansion of their defense area... not a replacement. It's basically diversification which the Gulf states are looking for,” Dr. Shaista Tabassum of the University of Karachi told Sputnik.
Why Pakistan? Tabassum gave four reasons:
🔶Nuclear deterrence – Only Muslim state with nuclear technology & missile capability to deliver warheads if required
🔶Cost advantage – Defense agreements with Pakistan are cheaper than those with the US
🔶Proven capability – Pakistan's military has recent combat experience, unlike many regional militaries
🔶The Israel factor – Pakistan's consistent anti-Israel posture guarantees no "secret relationship" with Tel Aviv, giving Gulf states political security
ما از جنگیدن با بازنده ها نمیترسیم.

خواهیم دید چه میشود!
The largest cargo port in south China’s Hainan Free Trade Port, the Yangpu Port, officially commenced a new container shipping route to India on Tuesday, adding a second South Asia service for the deep water facility.
The route connects Yangpu with Vietnam's Haiphong, Singapore and now India's Mundra, expected to provide a faster outbound channel for Hainan products, which include rapeseed oil and chemical goods.
President Trump spoke with Fox News during the overnight strikes in Iran and said:
“If the Iranians don’t sign a deal, tomorrow night I’ll bomb the s**t out of them.”
In other words, expect another spicy night tonight!
Iran has been sanctioned for 47 years and it has not even flinched.
We sanctioned the world for 40 days and everyone is suffering because of it.
If you can’t take the heat, stay out of the kitchen.
