China announced about the "North Pole Sea Silk Road" project. It will join Europe to China.
Today a Ship needs 48 days from China to Holland through Panama Canal or Suez Canal. But due to North Pole Sea Silk Road, only 20 days will be needed.
Therefore, Gwadar will not be needed any more for trade with Europe.

China also trying to link to many countries of central Asia and Iran and Arab Countries and even Europe through land Silk Road. Therefore Gwadar will not be needed in this case for trading with whole Asia.
The only area for which Gwadar will be needed is perhaps Africa.
