Pakistan acquired nukes only because India did so in 1974. Don't jerk off thinking that it had to d with Pakistan's weakness vis a vis your country.

https://defence.pk/pdf/threads/why-is-chahbahar-not-burning.734583/ @The Eagle, you should not have closed this thread. I wanted to engage these Iranians, couldn't do so because I was busy with some stuff. This is a Pakistani forum and the victimhood complex of Iranians has to be deconstructed...

Both can be done simultaneously. Indians put their house in order and they are also playing offense.

The more the merrier when it comes to voices of reform.

Exporting was the problem. There are a limited number of tanker ships available and there is port congestion.

Eh, a delight to read as always. I talk about some solutions here: https://defence.pk/pdf/threads/point-mobilization-of-decisive-force-terrain-vastness-manpower-constraints.734829/#post-13552133

It has started declining.

This guy is a next-level choroo (youtube channel owner), beware. Never put any stock in MOUs which mostly do not materialize in Pakistan. I have not seen a detailed breakdown of SIGNED deals in the current visit from any official source.

Over 40% living below the global poverty line of 3.25 USD a day, ranked 103 in the world hunger index despite producing agricultural surpluses (indicative of the actual purchasing power of Indians) and 10% accumulating most of the wealth of the state in their hands, then talking big on...

Refineries are running at 60% capacity. That is why you are having to import petrol. I have narrated the story of why these are running at 60% efficiency.

No permanent friends in real politik.

The rate of TAPI gas is far more expensive than the long-term LNG contacts we have with our partners. That is why we are trying to renegotiate the rate citing a lack of incentive for us to go through with this deal. I think import substitution can take a back seat. I was of the opinion that...

Agree fully. That is why a strategic G2G agreement is the way to go here. We are too small and economically irrelevant to attract the hi-tech industry merely at the back of investment incentives.

Why are Pakistanis willing to surrender sovereignty and independence at the drop of a hat? This is a defeatist mentality. If only we apply ourselves to these security challenges and divert resources (both intellectual and material) where required, we can overcome them. Why do we need protection...

If by new religion you mean Shia Islam, I have news for you, the Iranian population converted to Shia Islam much much later. Pakistan could not wipe out Indo-Iranian proxies at its own home and you want it to drive Iranian influence out of levant on an empty stomach. Fully agreed. The...
