Russian defence minister arrives in Pakistan to discuss defence cooperation

Did you actually think that Russia will sudden dump India and spike up the relation with Pakistan?

Why not? All it takes is a change of international geopolitics that aligns national interests between Pakistan and Russia, instead of with India.

Then what about the US?

Then what about the US?

What about it? Where Pakistan's interests will align with USA's, it will go with USA. Where Pakistan is aligned with Russia, it will go with Russia. The same goes for other countries too. It is never a binary answer.

But how much you can go by antogonising US?
That is indeed a question.Same goes to Russia how much they can increase their relation with Pakistan at the expense of India?

Hi,

It is funny---how many times the U S has tried to put down Pakistan---never missed a single opportunity---and then it keeps getting in a position where it needs the services of pkistan more than before.

Trust me, USA will never be antagonized by this budding relationship between Russia and Pakistan, even if it blossoms.

US is already in a full fury due to Ukraine Episode.Look what happened in G 20 .Russians dont have money and they are already suffered with sanctions.I dont think that Russia can afford a shock in their relation with India.Seems they have only narrow options.

There is no fury over Ukraine. It is just a continuation of the process that started long ago in Afghanistan.

How important can this visit be when the COAS is abroad?

But Sergei Shoigu is Russian Defence Minister not Russia COAS

Yes, but the people he is meeting have no authority over defense and foreign policies.

 

[zeeshanvita]

But these people do have authority over decision makers...they do influence them...

LOL! Nice joke!

By definition, authority lies with those making the decisions.
