Indian General says China's $46 Billion Investment in Pakistan ominous for India

Actually they should be cautious, they are professionals and know the consequences of a war. Unlike the internet warriors (both sides) who keep thinking that there country is a super power now and can wipe off anyone and everyone they want to.

Anyway, the general being concerned with Pakistan military acquisitions is a sensible approach however considering the whole invest project that will cover roads, economic and infrastructure development, power generations and stuff, labellings all that as worrying was a bit over blown for me.

You are overlooking the strategic importance of Gwadar port which will manned by chinese. In this context it can threaten our oil supplies from middle east. This $46 billion trade corridor will definitely transform your economy but at the same time it can serve as a strategic asset during time of war.

Well it will surely be a strategic asset for us. The point i am making is that either the claims of the all might blue water navy, claiming to be able to wipe off PN in under 8 hours are wrong or all this CONCERN is over blown. :)
And, overblown to an extent that the whole visit, all the MoU and future plans are a source of concern now.

Any strategic build up in our neighbourhood is a cause for concern. Is it overblown...I don't think so.
 
This all happens just because we couldn't handle baloch ppl, almost every baloch hates Pakistan, it's shame for us.
Who told you this.
Baloch separatist are on a run, they cant do any thung expect blowing up an electric tower or pipe line in a remote area.
Most of them are being killed or living an aimless life in exile.

In last election people selected their own baloch people and these separatist ***... Holes have been side lined.

Good to know retired generals have similar pastimes across the border.
Defence Analysts : Cooking up BS in Indo-Pak since 1947.
 
India is developing the port of Chahbahar in Iran , so close to Balochistan province in Pakistan and it is a big security risk for Pakistan but sadly no Pakistani Government ever made any serious effort to stop it or raise voice against this ! On the other hand Indians are raising hell and crying against Pak China corridor which will be so beneficial for Pakistan's economy and future ! We need to learn from our enemy a few tips about foreign policy !!!!!!

Btw Soviet Union tried to reach these blue waters through Afganistan and then Iran. Rushia would have been building that port of Iran. I wonder what would've been the scenario in context with US-Iran relations.

Someone tell me @TankMan sir please.

@Khurram2349 It isn't a direct security risk for Pakistan, so we can not ''raise voice'' against it since both India and Iran have the right to develop that port - technically, and according to international law, we can't do anything about it. But it is competition, and right now we are peacefully and legally competing by building our own port in Gwadar. However, If India attempts to sabotage the Gwadar and CPEC through terrorism or intelligence agency activity, Pakistan will have to do the same with Chabahar. For now, we should peacefully compete via the CPEC. There is no point raising voice against Chabahar or Iran, it will make Pakistan look insecure and immature to the international community and do us no good.

@Salik The Soviets did try to connect Russia to Iran through Afghanistan and Uzbekistan, but I doubt Chabahar was the only reason - they could access Iran through the Caspian Sea if they really wanted to.

As for the US reaction, it depends. If the Russians try to use Chabahar, there are two possibilities; either

a) the US will put pressure on Iran to stop them from co-operating with the Russians, or

b) the US will take a U-turn, alleviate pressure on Iran and try to get Iran on the US's side and then possibly even claim Chabahar for their own - just to deny it to the Russians, even if it doesn't give them any direct profit. This would've been a good idea in the Cold War, since the post-79 Iranian government wasn't too fond of the Soviets. Might be a little harder nowadays, but still a valid strategy.

But it hasn't happened yet, so this is speculation and we can't be sure.
 
All it means is that Pakistan cannot be trusted with nuclear strike capable weapons. It has in past passed nuclear technology to Libya, Iran and Korea- three most distrusted nations in the world besides your own. Remember AQKhan revelation a while ago and he was imprisoned in his own house???? What for?

Can India be trusted??? Who gave missile overhaul and parts to Iran during sanctions?? Along with providing them with other sanctioned tech covertly.....?? Neither India nor Pakistan should be trusted with nukes!!
