Improved relatiions between china and india with former investing heavily in latter's rail road and other infrastructure programmes have resulted in two-way commerce totalling close to $70 billion. Wouldn't it soften the chinese stance on kashmir issue, which is right now in favour of Pakistan.
Also, many believe that china is hijacking Pakistan's resources in guise of freindship. how much weight does this arument hold
Does Pakistan need to revisit its relationship with China in changing scenarios.

China's relationship with Pakistan is strictly business. Sweeter than honey and higher than Himalayas are only fairy tales. It wants an ally in the region for strategic reasons owing to its tensions with India.
Pakistan sure can revisit its relationship with China but addition of another uncooperative rather offensive neighbour would not be a good sign. We already have strained relations with 3 of our 4 neighbours.
Do you know what is China's stance on Kashmir? It is already softened and tilts toward favouring India. China has captured Aksai-Chin and UN plebiscite cannot happen unless military presence by China is withdrawn from there to represent the region as it was at the time of passing of the UN resolution.
China's policy favors the issue to be resolved bilaterally, and that is also India's stance not Pakistan's!
