China, Pakistan may counter any Indian disruption to CPEC: South Asia expert

[Shankranthi]

India only extends "moral" support to the people of Baluchistan.

 

[That Guy]

Bro,thats what know want but rest assured china is not going to fight Pakistans war.even if 100 billion is lost its dsnt effect them so chill.hoping against hope some how china will fight Pakistans war... They wont risk war for few billions which wont affect them.

In this day and age, war between powers is unlikely, as it would be absolutely devastating. China doesn't have to go to war with India, and nor would Pakistan declare war with India.

In the first place, how can Pakistan build CPEC through G&B that it consider disputed? India has every right to intervene in this matter and will put pressure on China. Pakistanis should understand India is not against CPEC, but against it passing through G&B

Hi,

If you don't mind me asking then, could you kindly tell me 'WHAT EXACTLY" is Pakistan or China "BUILDING" as part of CPEC that is passing through GB?

Thanks in advance.

P.S, visit Ministry of Planning, Development and Reforms' website to get a clear idea about CPEC.

China Warns India, Says It Will Get Involved if New Delhi Starts Trouble in Balochistan
By Manthan Chheda | Aug 29, 2016 01:40 AM EDT

Shisheng is associated with one of the country's most powerful think tanks, which is also is affiliated with the Ministry of State Security. In his interview, the expert also said that India's strengthening military ties with the U.S. as well as its stance on the South China Sea dispute has also become a cause for concern for China.

"The latest concern for Beijing is Prime Minister Narendra Modi's speech from the Red Fort in which he referred to the issues like Kashmir (occupied by Pakistan) and Balochistan," Hu said, according to Firstpost.

"It could be regarded as a watershed moment in India's policy towards Pakistan. Why Chinese scholars are concerned is because this is for the first time India has mentioned it," he added.

Hu further stated that China is worried that India might use "anti-government" elements in Pakistan's Balochistan region, where Beijing is constructing the $46 million CPEC project.

"If this kind of plot causes damage to the CPEC, China will have to get involved," he said, if India backs separatists in Balochistan, Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Kashmir (Azad Kashmir).

The CPEC is a series of projects that connect China's Xinjiang province to Pakistan's Gwadar port in Balochistan. India has strongly opposed the economic corridor as it passes through Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Kashmir, which India has claimed sovereignty over.

Hu also pointed out that India's growing military relations with the U.S. and the recent agreement over the logistics treaty, Logistics Exchange Memorandum of Agreement (LEMOA), has also raised alarm bells in China.

India's interference in the South China Sea debate has further raised tensions between India and China, according to Hu.

"In the past, India's stand on the South China Sea was impartial. India is getting more and more involved. This attitude is another concern for China," he noted.

"Our problem is with the US. We can see India is becoming more vocal in issuing joint statements with the US and Japan on the South China Sea," he added.

In a case brought on by the Philippines, the Permanent Court of Arbitration dismissed China's territorial claims over nearly 90 percent of the South China Sea, which overlaps with several South Asian countries including Philippines, Vietnam, Brunei, Malaysia and Taiwan.

China will not get involved, and that is the truth. What some 'think tanks' say and what Chinese government says are not the same. Let it come Chinese government.

 

[ashok321]

For China to intervene, India has to start a war first.
Which it will not.

So close this thread.

Why India Needs to Take Chinese Comments on Balochistan Seriously

In the secretive corridors of power in Beijing often times what is said by think tanks and TV show panelists gives you a window into the prevalent strands of thinking in the Foreign Ministry.


One of the longest running shows on CCTV News (full disclosure: I worked for this channel from 2011 to 2014) was a talk show called Dialogue. It is a poorly produced, poorly edited chat show with an anchor who could barely string together three straight sentences in English and two to three talking heads.

By international standards this show would not have got air time on any global news channel. Which is why it was surprising to many of us international journalists why Dialogue was given such a long rope. One day the producer of the show, an affable elderly British gentleman, let me in on the secret. “Dialogue allows China to say what it wants to the rest of the world but the spokesperson of the Foreign Ministry can’t say from his bully pulpit.”


In the secretive corridors of power in Beijing often times what is said by think tanks and TV show panelists gives you a window into the prevalent strands of thinking in the Foreign Ministry. Which is why we should read very carefully the words of Hu Shisheng of the China Institute of Contemporary International Relations on Modi’s comments on Balochistan in his Independence Day address. Remember, the Chinese Foreign Ministry hasn’t taken a position on the Prime Minister’s comments. Neither has the US State Department or the Foreign Ministries of Iran and Afghanistan. This is the first articulation by an influential Chinese academic about the prevalent thinking in their Foreign Ministry about Balochistan.

“China will have to get involved if any Indian plot disrupts the $46 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC),” said Hu in an interview to PTI.

It’s worth remembering that a large portion of the CPEC runs through restive Balochistan. Its termination point is the port of Gwadar through which the Chinese are hoping to import crude oil to Xinjiang and also hoping to send finished goods across to Europe. The CPEC is an important part of Xi Jinping’s pet project One Belt, One Road. In recent years, China has been ‘looking West’ even as trouble mounts on its East both in the South and East China seas.


Even at the height of the Kargil War, China had not taken a public position backing Pakistan, a country which Chinese state media calls ‘iron brother’. This is the first time that the Chinese are articulating support to Pakistan in the event of a future armed conflict between New Delhi and Islamabad. This only lends further heft to the worst fears of India’s security forces: a two-front war with both China and Pakistan.


The Indian Defence forces have always been wary of fighting on both the Western and Eastern flanks, fighting both Pakistan and China at the same time. Modi’s public articulation of human rights violations in Balochistan has only driven China further into the embrace of its ‘all-weather’ friend.

India is going to face the combine military strength of China and Pakistan. Imagine J-10 and F-16s doing combine bombing runs on Delhi and Mumbai. Modi will wet his dhoti.

 

[Qutb-ud-din Aybak]

on internation forum kashmir is a bileteral issue, on bilateral discussion kashmir is an internal matter of india, when hurriat takes the matter in their hand and pakistan leaving behind kashmir just talk about indians pellit guns it becomes balochistan issue.
indians don't stick on one stance.
about CPEC it will save chine about 400 billion dollars a year in trade. this amount is enough to tell indians that chinese are already angry.
about gilgit baltistan and cpec, didn't india have done similar development works in IOK which is also the part of the same problem.
by the way karakoram highway is already there telling indians that everybody listen to their concerns but no one cares.

Gilgit Baltistan is integral part of Pakistan, AJK is disputed. India has no way in CPEC.

 

[Mo12]

CPEC is a start of something big 46 billion $ is just initial investment and more will come from other countries after the project is fully developed.the world has already set its eye on the Pakistani market which has a huge potential for growth and foreign countries can earn healthy profits.......of course India can never digest that...stomach aches!!

I keep hearing this but I see nothing has been signed to say investment from other countries will happen!

I like China keeps warning India, but while China kept arming India rival. Now India is talking back, China keeps sending talking.

China needs to stop being a hypocrite.
