I see no war.
Pakistan and China neutralized the threat effectively in recent months. One of the objectives of China-India skirmishes was to spread Indian forces throughout the northern border.
Pakistan is playing her game very effectively. I like it. This is the way India should be dealt with. The kind of games India was playing during the whole past couple of decades, Pakistan is now returning the favor.
I highly doubt about it. Pakistan had any role in this.
#1 This was started by India deliberately on behalf of West. In past India never care about small eastern border skirmish and things seems to cooldown. This time, it was mostly West thinning Chinese deployment across Sea/Land. It takes Billions of $$ to move/sustain US navy to South China sea (since last 2 months), that is just to keep China checked and stress on multifront, just to keep US election smooth.
#2 if India, Pakistan war will happen, China will never came, they never did in past not for us not for anyone. It will always happen with West blessing India.
#3 Chinese are blood suckers, None of money is free, All CPEC dramas is exacerbated loan terms, highly unjustified. Arabs were loyal to give at least more friendly terms. Chinese cant just help FATF, it is a cake walk for them if they really want to make it happen and convince 15 members.
#4 Best bet for Pakistan (my personnel opinion) is to Keep the Afgan as bargain and negotiate with West. West still, will dictate the World for many decades. West blessing is must. China bloc is too weak and will wipe out in number of days. China losing friends all over day by day. World simply cant afford going against West.
#5 we had already seen the penalty of losing West blessing with Arabs., FATF, Article 370.
