China may 'speed up construction of CPEC'

[X-2.]

If China & Pakistan agree to set up a Chinese naval base near Gawadar port, then this will boost the security & this will also check US in India.

Why we need Chinese base when Pakistan navy already have there
Dw we have taken all security precautions even Americans know what we have there lol so dw

Kashmiris are our brothers, its just certain fringe elements that are provided with means to create disruptions there. Sure we haven't handled the situation better but that is why I said if China can use CPEC to make Pakistan shift its focus from cross border terrorism to Economic advancement, it would be good for the region.

Hence I understand now why India's ploy of raising tensions has been a master-stroke. By going to almost a war-like situation we have scared Beijing more than Islamabad as they are worried about CPEC.



And how would investing in those help Pakistan by any means? Only thing you could do with that is maybe catch the world's attention that constantly doubt Pakistan's ability to keep those away from terrorist elements.

Kashmiris are like your brothers haha you must be joking this is even bigger joke than trump saying mexicans are like his brothers and he will end walls or borders...

And yes whatever you indians do is a master stroke this delusion of grandeur wont do you guys any good in long term!

Tell that to Kashmiri's who turned out in record numbers in the last democractically held elections.

Its not a delusion.

China has you in its grips with CPEC. So India knows now that to make Pakistan back-off it will have to create a concern for China wrt CPEC by raising the war rhetoric.

It provides us with security and clearly signals that the World's next hyper power intends for Pakistan to become a very powerful & advanced nation whereby it will share it's top of the line defence systems with. Contrary to what is publicly said. Actions speak louder than words.

Which is exactly Why I am loving MODi. The more it rattles the more concern will be there which will be translated to accelerated progression on current and upcoming projects perhaps even a military or hardware or two

Looks like CPEC will be a tool China will use from time to time to make Pakistan toe it's line. China may well force Pakistan to cease its support to terrorist elements if it finds it is a threat to the project.

As any war or major conflict could hamper the progress of CPEC. I must say a brilliant move from Modi and Indian govt to rise tensions at this time. India knows now that whatever it has to get done in Pakistan can be done so only through Chinese intervention and what better than to warn of a major conflict that puts CPEC at risk?

It will be interesting to see if China can force Pakistan into going for development rather than indulging in proxy wars.

What if china wants to suppport the terrorists that fight against india ?

The premise is correct that Pakistan on a development path will be less likely to use non state actors. And, since 2013, Pakistan has been on a development path. And since 2004/2005, Pakistan had effectively/largely stopped the Kashmiri fighters' support against India.

The latest crises are pure and simple Indian political failure in J&K. Once again India managed to arouse violent protests and mass agitation lasting weeks/months. Pakistan didn't want the latest crises. But Pakistan could not ignore the atrocities happening in Kashmir either.

I find majority of Indian bloggers, intellectuals, and journalists incredibly ignorant and smug when it comes to foreign policy. Dissent dies in front of patriotism. Thankfully, Pakistan is much better on that score.

I ever read some comments as "Pakistan should not put all the eggs in one basket".It is nonsense.Because none would do thing like this.Pakistan has a lot of friends not only China.Pakistan has cooperation with a lot of nations not only China.China and Pakistan has better relationship in many respects.We are turning those relationships into economic development and fruitful coopearation to benefit more people of both nations.
Gwadar port was run by Singapore not by China in the beginning,China just got it in recent years.Because in the beginning,China realilzed that we didn't have enough experience to manage a super large scale of sea port.Because Gwadar port should be designed and developed as Dubai Port and China didn't have enough capacity at that time and didn't go for the final bidding.It proves that business cooperation is rational and logical,not only just depends on politics.Nowadays China has strong point in managing large-scale port and we also could supply funding,that is why we cooperate now.Not to mention we have such good fundamentals in the level of government and civilians.
China has dispute with Japan,USA,India,Vietnam,South Korea and so on.But it could not stop our business,because business could bring profit and empolyment to the masses as well as improve living condition.So don't ask dispute to hinder the development and it is not smart.We are not politicians.
CPEC is a magnificent project to improve the infrasture which could bring power plant,dam,road,bridge,etc and it could help to bring up thousands of related engineers and workers.Pakistan has a lot of good technicians but not enough.Because if Pakistan want to develop fast,Pakistan need a large amount.Once the infrastructure is improved,Industry zone is set and Pakistan has large amount of professional engineers and workers.Why not other nations will come to Pakistan to invest including China?At that time,you will see a lot of baskets are there.China dislike interferring with other nations even though we are all-weather friends.Don't worry too much.We hope to bring real benefit to friendly people but bring dispute to so-called allies.For example,if we like interferring with interal affairs of other nations now,DPRK has collapsed already.
Really hope "Pakistan should not put all the eggs in one basket“ this kind of comment is gone.Business is on the basis of interest firstly then affection.If we have the both,it is the best.Obviously and fortunately,China and Pakistan has both.

Right now China has starting twisting Modi's ears, I feel China has decided to make Modi "Acha Bacha" and take some of his twist out.

Will speed up CPEC construction if Pakistan shows concern: Chinese scholar

Chinese Scholars and Analysts have indicated that China may speed up the construction of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).

Director of the China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations affiliated to the Chinese Foreign Ministry Hu Shisheng, said China may speed up the construction of the $46 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor which passes through Azad Kashmir if Pakistan was isolated and cornered by India.

“China has to discuss with Pakistan about the current situation on how to handle and how to come out it,” Hu said speaking about threats of Pakistan’s isolation in the region and postponement of the SAARC summit after the Uri terror attack in which 19 Indian soldiers were killed.

“China has to further enhance relations with Pakistan if it feels cornered. A cornered regime some times will be more desperate, which will not be conducive to political development within Pakistan,” Hu said. “If Pakistan feels isolated from South Asia, then China will speed up CPEC to instil confidence in Islamabad,” he said.

However, Hu said this isolation may be conducive for Pakistan to remove internal differences on CPEC. The isolation “may be to the good of CPEC,” he said. “The completion of the CPEC may give Pakistan some confidence in handling differences with India more confidently,” he said.

“This may also change the Pakistani mindset on extremism, radicalism and terrorism and shift it to development,” he said.

Hu said India was purposely promoting the regional sub-regional integration in South Asia to isolate Pakistan.

“This will make Pakistan feel cornered and improving relations with India will be more difficult,” he said.

With the indefinite postponement of SAARC, a platform has been lost for India and Pakistan to improve relations, he has said.

On Xi’s proposed meeting with Modi on the sidelines of the BRICS summit in Goa, he said top leaders alone cannot solve problems.

There have to be candid and frank talks at the diplomatic level which would enable top leaders to take decisions, he said.

“China can not sit idle like in the past to let India-Pakistan tensions grow. May be in future, China would like the U.S. to be more active with India and Pakistan to stabilise their relations,” Hu said.

The only way Pakistan will be isolated is if we get sanctioned again(i wish not for any reason), otherwise no other country then india having interest in CEPC will resist this project's attractions and gains.
There will be cries from across the border, and world may continue giving condemning statements/or statements to keep india happy, besides it they will not stop doing business and investments in Pakistan.

Pakistan along with China is rightly persuing to develop an economic coop regime involving Central Asia, China , Pakistan & Iran. CPEC and Chinese province of Xinjiang would be geo strategic pivots of this new economic coop platform. As some one said In South Asia other than Srilanka (with whom we have defence relations) all other states donot have the power potential or clout in the international system, leave isolation aside even if there are no diplomatic relations with them, they are so far away , its not our concern. Pakistan is rightly increasing coop with others including Azerbaijan, Turkey , Belarus and Russia, whose eastern part can in future be linked to CPEC via Xinjiang.

Yeah well, you can tell yourself whatever you want to sleep well but it is farther from the truth and you know it.

Right now Modi has become a problem for China. The situation has just stopped short of war but tensions have not reduced, one more incident and it could break out into war and that isn't good news for CPEC.

Why we need Chinese base when Pakistan navy already have there
Dw we have taken all security precautions even Americans know what we have there lol so dw

It is a need for both Pakistan & China.
