Wow good to see an Indian so concerned about Pakistan's debt.
Just compare Pakistan's development 1960-90s and 2010 to present. We were being openly called a failed state and became a laughing stock of the world as the 40 Western lackey thieves from Islamabad looted and pillaged and brought the country to a state of civil war to cover their tracks. But as always Allah saves the day. Pakistan should be open to all proposals and carefully consider all options but we should also make it clear to all parties that CPEC is not negotiable and is a permanent feature between two neighboring and brotherly countries. Neocon New world order was a new world disorder and brought immense suffering and pain all around. As the TRIPC countries align into formidable economic and military block the Western nations have little option other than bribe and divide key countries. Pakistan is a key nation and will no doubt face pressure to realign. But our trust has been shattered through Kashmir and Palestine and the attack on our sovereignty through Afghanistan.
And don't forget the death squads, martial law and poverty all spin offs from colonial investment.
I actually think Pakistan is one of the countries being targeted by the USA in B3W. Announced terms are similar to ongoing discussions between USA and Pakistan on post Afghanistan withdrawal cooperation. Plus PMIK has been putting a lot of focus on green initiatives....recently issuing green bonds in western markets and asking for a green debt amnesty scheme. Looks like Biden's been listening and observing.
you have spoken like a true house slave. but being the indian house slave that you are, I don't blame you for not realizing that nations like Pakistan don't choose sides, they create sides.
agreed. nations like france forbid african nations that got freedom from them for even taking loans from any other banks except for french.
Yes earlier we chose west and you chose USSR and now USSR is the Superpower.
wise words of advice...end of the day, b3w will be more of the same old same old western tactic of removing honest leaders, instilling corrupt governments & then giving billions in loans to those corrupt governments that will gobble the money up and leave that nation enslaved to the west with no way of paying that loan off and no development to show for that loan.
the western w3b isn't even born yet, still just an idea on paper while OBOR is tried and true. as I said, when w3b is finally born, it'll be a cluster fck of colliding multi national interests, insane amounts of beaurocratic red tapes and a spaghetti bowl of attached strings and black mailing...China will be wise say "bring it on" to w3b as it is already ahead in the game while threatening sanctions against the west just as they threaten everyone else. let's face it...u.s. & e.u. need everything including rare earth metals like titanium from China while China really needs nothing from u.s. & e.u.
It is absolutely good news that the G7 is trying to match China OBOR with their development plan.
I doubt it is unanimously adopted wholeheartedly.
It will be good for many undeveloped nations. Their motivation is only to outdo the growing Chinese influence.
Observe China don't seems to give a damn and these infrastructures are costly and China cannot do it alone. Now G7 jumps into the wagon. It is great. Howover I suspects it will only be financial engineering more than real constructions.
Although IMO and based on US and Western track record, it may simply a waste of time and like the Tsuinami relief fund in Acheh, it will soon be forgotten and the money pledged never arrived after the photo session.
Like what they say in Texas.
All hat and no cattle.
