    Imran Khan's government has completed negotiations with a popular uprising led by Maulana Hidayat ur Rehman in Balochistan's Gwadar. Shekhar Gupta looks at its implications on China's CPEC & growing rifts between civilian government & army administration in the region. In Episode 908 of CutTheClutter, we also look at Pakistan's politics where there is a storm in the making.

      the ground realities in land of fascist that are still there i.e. Australian Christian father and his two young sons 10 and 6yrs old were burnt to death by Fascist Hndu Terrorists. Those were not one and two but the whole mob backed by those in power. Just last week Church vandalized, school stormed, Xmas celebration were disrupted by the fascist hindutwa goons backed by the local govt administration. Or not too long ago the cow vigilantes in India lynching at least 44 people. The serial blasts that rocked the Mahabodhi Budhist temple in Bihar’s Gaya district. The first persecution of Buddhists in India took place in the 2nd century BC by King Pushyamitra Shunga. cruelly persecuted genocide Buddhists Hundreds of the Buddhist statues, Stupas and Viharas were destroyed in India between 830 AD and 966 AD in the name of the revival of Hinduism.

    Let’s keep in mind that gwadar is an isolated town in an extremely underdeveloped part of Pakistan. Had China truly wanted to build a Shenzhen in Pakistan then they would have built in either near Karachi or the relatively developed northern Punjab region. The main goal of gwadar is only increasing the military presence of the Chinese. We should pay close attention to these protests for sure but let’s not act like this is a victory that will benefit us as China is unlikely to stop developing a military base due to these.

      Many inds are of the view that Pak is becoming a Chainese colony , but they ignore USA's influence on Pak
      Pak is a creation of the west for a very strategic purpose of the US.
      Pak is a miltry mercenary state of US
      The entire country is like it's millitary base , a mad dog which is controlled by US ,strategically located between Afg , Iran Ind , Chinaaa
      If any countries in this region go against US it will unleash this mad dog on them .They unleashed it on Afghan and India, and now it intends to unleash it on chaaina .
      Ever wondered amerika the champion of democracy , elections ,
      Why it's so easy going on a army rule of Pak ? Why does Pak army enjoys and sustained so much power over pak ? Bcz of USa
      Chaaina gave some bones to the mad dog , to lure it and try to calm it down and make it a friend .
      and now it's trapped btween both of them
      I think Either it has to help US if not then I think afg Pak region will be turned into next iraq n Syria .

    That’s the basic difference between Chinese and Americans. Both work on extreme self interest but Americans leave you little window of opportunity but Chinese doesn’t. And as we know the nature of Pakistan is to limit India and they may have succeeded at very minuscule level but they have kept paying extreme price for it. Their generation are going to pay for it. Their obsession with Kashmir is hurting them the most and their leaders (army and civilian) knows this very well but they can’t back off otherwise it will backfire. Interesting to see how things unfold in Pakistan in next 10 years.

That is probably the sole reason that has kept India united. Pakistan on the hand unfortunately stuck to that old rotten system and hence all the unrest. India is five times bigger than Pakistan but still doesn't have a state as large as Baluchistan.

    One very important thing many are missing about the Chinese debt is a huge part of the infra debt money is going back to china directly in the form of contracts to chinese firms even in countries that have local expertise which is detrimental to the growth of the country taking debt. If IMF or any other international organization gives loan they don't add strings as to who should build the infra and part of it can be built by local firms of that country. That way the money circulates in the country creating wealth/ generating jobs while the debt is being repaid by the govt.

    One minor correction: The twelve mile zone is the territorial waters of the nation. That’s a country’s exclusive property. Activities e.g. fishing next to the coast exclusively by a country’s fishermen can be done upto anywhere 200 miles from coastline. That’s exclusive economic zone. No other country’s fishermen are allowed in one’s EEZ to obtain anything of value, be it fish, or any other natural resource.

    Thank you for sharing once again on Pakistan, a country that you cannot get out of your heads, especially after the saffron warriors/terrorists of Modi brigade came to power and surely after losing US$3 bn in Afghanistan.
    1. Pakistan always wanted Gwader to be a developed port for economic reasons. That was the reason why Pakistan bought it from Oman in the first place. The reasons are (i) deep waters, (ii) proximity to economic lanes into the Gulf region and beyond, and (iii) earning money for the development of Balochistan. Why it was not developed, is another story and I can share why.
    2. USA was never a long-term ally of Pakistan. The book titled, 'No Exit from Pakistan' by Daniel Markey shares the inside papers from American establishment and clearly states that USA cannot exit from Pakistan and that it cannot let Pakistan develop economically or to get totally destroyed; it can only allow the country to continue in a 'managed destabilized' situation.
    3. The stories of rifts between Pakistan and China are, at best, FAKE NEWS. This is all FAKE is evidenced by China supplying semi-stealth J-10Cs, submarines and advanced frigates at almost no cost to Pakistan. I have researched Pakistan budgetary forecasts and there is no significant amount earmarked for such expensive acquisitions. It seems that either they are all on negligibly small EMIs, get now and pay later, or even simply China running its PLAAF, and Navy through Pakistan using Pakistani personnel. I predict that Pakistan will soon be getting Chinese full stealth jet fighters.

The next government may be headed by the religious extremists like TTP, TLP, etc, which doesn’t bode well for India. Baloch breaking away from Pakistan is not a likely scenario. There’s no friend next door to help them as India helped in the formation of Bangladesh. So I expect more headaches for India.
