Russia Leaves India Stunned By Backing 2000 Km China-Pakistan Business Corridor

.
your titly-bitly 500 million are a dwarf in front of 51 Billion Chinese investment. Even your 500 Billions are wasted because your highway will not be able to go across Taliban area of Afghanistan. Your game ends
Lol These aren't all just FDI.
It's more like low interest loans for infra & energy projects.The entire equipment and tech, supervisory, and skilled labor manpower will come from China. That means that the huge multiplier effect of infrastructure spend will go to Chinese firms.Will have to see the tariffs of all hydel thermal power plants when they start operating & how they will recover their investments.

Iran is far developed than Pakistan even without 46 Billion immediate investments.. Chabahar will allow not only allow India to access Afghanistan but also On Iranian side India can directly access north south trade corridor to reach its goods to Europe.This route is 40% shorter and 30% cheaper than current sea route (currently sea route via Red sea to Suez canal is used for trade and transportation).It could bring down cost, time of cargo trade to Europe by about 50%....

The fact is none of you have been able to refute my post logically which is why you are burning like firewood.:lol:

May be because your points are too dumb. That is why I demanded for something more.

LMAO.:rofl:
An article by a TOI-let owned subsidiary.

Here is the reality on CPEC and Russia Pakistan:

1) In his Annual address to Russian Parliament two weeks back, President Putin specifically called India a foreign policy priority and privileged strategic partner whereas he made zero mention of Pakistan.

2)Russian Special envoy Kabulov specifically called cooperation with Pakistan low level & purely commercial compared to strategic one with India.

3)In the past four months while Russia signed several deals for sales of defence equipment to India, it publicly humiliated Pakistan by rejecting sale of Su-35.

4)In another episode of public humiliation for Pakistan, Russia publicly rejected reports of Russia joining CPEC.

5) Russia humiliated Pakistan , by sending only 70 soldiers to its exercise with Pakistan but sending over 200 to its exercise with India.
The fact is none of you have been able to refute my post logically which is why you are burning like firewood.:lol:

My 5-year-old thinks, she will get a unicorn if she will be nice and polite, do I need to refute her? I don't think so.

All your 5 points are nothing more than your 5 wishes, keep dreaming.

Russia Publicly Favors Pakistan Over India

India is worried that its nearly 70-year friendship with Russia is about to end. Russia is warming up to India’s biggest historical enemy, Pakistan, which inevitably has led to tensions between New Delhi and Moscow. So even though India and Russia were very close for nearly seven decades, Russia-Indian relations have come crashing down over the last two years.



Geopolitics is the reason the relationship between the two countries is deteriorating. Moscow and New Delhi have backed one another on the international diplomatic sphere for decades. But when Russia refused to support India’s bid to turn Pakistan into a pariah state this year, Moscow took a major step away from its friendship with New Delhi.

Russia and India may have signed large-scale military deals over the past seven decades, but when Moscow held its first-ever joint military drills this year with Pakistan – India’s biggest adversary – it was a sign that Russia is trying to send a message.


India remains mute about Russia-Pakistan friendship
Last week, Moscow and Islamabad held their first-ever foreign office consultations, leaving India understandably worried that Russia is further deepening its ties to Pakistan. During those consultations in Islamabad, Russian and Pakistani officials discussed a wide variety of regional issues and pointed out some areas of mutual interest, including economic cooperation.

According to the Pakistan Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Pakistani and Russian officials “exchanged views on important global and regional developments.” The ministry added in the statement that “it was also decided that the next round of consultations will be convened in Moscow in 2017.”

Just last year, nobody in their right mind would believe that Russia could make friends with its Cold War rival Pakistan. But by selling four Mi-35M helicopters to Pakistan in 2015, Russia mutely announced huge changes in its geopolitical strategies. Then in October 2015, Russia and Pakistan held their first-ever joint military exercises labeled “Druzhba” (friendship), which sent India into frenzy. However, India remained mute about the drills for the most part because it still has a number of pending military deals with Russia it doesn’t want to lose over its resentment.

Russia has big plans for the CPEC
When Russia rejected India’s efforts in November to isolate Pakistan politically, tensions between Moscow and New Delhi reached their peak. While concerns are rising within the Indian government, Russia continues to warm up to Pakistan and has recently shown interest in Pakistan’s joint project with China, the $46 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).

Earlier this month, Alexey Dedov, the Russian Ambassador to Pakistan, declared Russia’s strong support for the upcoming lucrative project. He also announced that Russia wants to link the Eurasian Economic Union project with the CPEC, a move that would further deteriorate relations between Moscow and New Delhi.

The CPEC is a sensitive issue for India because the project passes through the disputed Gilgit-Baltistan region in Kashmir. By backing the project, Russia automatically declares its support for Pakistan’s position in the long-standing Kashmir issue, a major development in Russian-Indian relations that could end their seven-decade friendship once and for all.

Why is Russia losing appeal in India?
Russia has a number of reasons to show its teeth to India and threaten New Delhi to end their lucrative friendship. The two main reasons are China and the United States. Russia views China as its most prosperous ally. China, meanwhile, is a traditional ally of Pakistan and therefore an adversary of India. Warming up to Islamabad is a smart move to get closer to China, but that move comes at a price: abandoning its decades-long friendship with India.

As for the United States, siding with Pakistan and China and abandoning its ties with India goes perfectly in line with Russia’s efforts to bring down America’s global dominance. In fact, India must blame itself for losing a close and reliable friend in Russia. As the Cold War-era generation doesn’t hold much sway in India now, it’s far trendier for the newer generation to look up to America.

A survey by the Pew Research Center in 2015 revealed that a whopping 70% of Indians view the U.S. in a positive light, while only 43% view Russia favorably. The same survey showed that while only 8% of Indians are negative towards America, twice as many – 16% – view Russia negatively. Moscow cannot but lose appeal in a country that has been gravitating towards Russia’s biggest competitor in the world.

Russia makes its choice in favor of Pakistan
Even though Russia remains India’s key weapons supplier, there are noticeable tensions in relations between the two nations. And the closer Russia gets to Pakistan, the fewer chances there will be to repair Indian-Russian relations.

However, Russia doesn’t seem to understand all the criticism coming from India. Earlier this month, Zamir Kabulov, the Russian President’s Special Envoy on Afghanistan, reminded India that Moscow hasn’t made any complaints about New Delhi’s growing cooperation with Washington on matters of defense.

But many Indian officials responded to Kabulov by saying that Russia’s cooperation with Pakistan is a far cry from India’s cooperation with the U.S. That’s because Indian officials believe New Delhi’s cooperation with Washington doesn’t threaten Russia, as the U.S. is miles away, but Russia’s cooperation with Pakistan directly threatens India’s safety.

Although India hasn’t publicly complained much about Russia strengthening ties with Pakistan, it doesn’t make sense why New Delhi acts surprised suddenly. India’s unexpected turn toward the U.S. wasn’t met with much excitement in Moscow, which is why Russia’s efforts to find a new ally in the region shouldn’t come as a surprise.

Russia had a tough choice: to continue being friends with New Delhi and see their friendship gradually fade by the year, or look for a more reliably ally in the region. And Russia seems to have made a choice in favor of Pakistan, no matter how painful it may sound for India.

Moscow-New Delhi-Islamabad triangle
Still, New Delhi remains rather silent about the noticeable tensions with Moscow. However, it is still trying to convince Moscow that Pakistan is the foundation of terrorism in the region. Tensions between Russia and India are getting even worse now that Moscow declared that it views the Afghan Taliban as a national military-political movement in Afghanistan. Russia is interested in engaging the Taliban in an attempt to defeat ISIS in the region.

Russia continues to make it look as if its growing cooperation with Pakistan doesn’t threaten its close relations with India. But it’s still unclear how the triangle between Moscow, Islamabad and New Delhi could work, as the biggest enemies in South Asia have conflicting opinions about a number of regional issues.

Could Russia – standing between New Delhi and Islamabad and having an equally big influence on the two of them – help resolve some of the most pressing issues in the region, including terrorism and the Kashmir issue?

India and Russia go way back so it would be immature to think the relationship will be over.

Pakistan has worked hard at regional diplomacy and are finally able to show they are well meaning ambitious partners who think alike. Russia China Pakistan synergy is forgone conclusion. This was always meant to happen.

Something that Pakistanis will not understand

When you are a Nation with the fifth largest GDP in the world just having overtaken France & UK

When you are growing annually 4 times as fast as 99% of the world econmies

When you have $400 billion in the bank account.

This breeds a certain confidence and arrogance

This means as a indian you don't really care what Russia or any one else is doing . as you are climbing getting stronger and stronger yourself to the point every other nation is irelevant

Most of those things are because you are a overpopulated state of 1.2 billion

This is why you have hundreds of millions in some of the most painful poverty in the world

Pakistan is growing fast and you will quickly find out that Pakistan will surpass India on a majority of economic and social indicators in the coming years

Very surprised if that happens .........IN SOUTH ASIA INDIA is the only country the WEST looks at


You have no real industry base
You export nothing other than Textiles
Your country lacks the world class universities to produce highly competitive educated engineers and scitentists
You Pakistanis lack world call business leaders like ambani and mittal ,


Put this into prerspective

Pakistan total exports per year $27 billion
India Exports over $300 billion

IT soft ware exports alone over $80 billion

Just building a road will not change anything drastically.

I think this india bashing daly comments on poor is a attempt to reflect the ALMOST CERTAIN GURANTEED RISE of India to become the 3RD largest GDP in the world by 2025,,

Yes there is poverty BUT it dos not give way to india huge potential as a ECONOMIC POWERHOUSE

Regardless

ENJOY your new Route Road etc with China & Russia

India has its own plans that are doing very well at 7/8% growth annually.

We have all thosr things

Pakistan has been a more successful state since the 1940s all the way through the 1990s.

Indian reforms and the fact thst it has 1.2 billion to exploit coupled with Pakistan hindered by the triple whammy of WOT, energy crises and corrup politics led india to increase its GDP

But Pakistan is back on track

And you can quote me a few years down the line and I promise you Pakistan will beat india on a array of economic and social factors.

Pakistan is a growing military and economic power snd we will grow to become one of the largest economys in the world

Dont worry we wont forget our enemy india
