Where is China?

[Waqar Abro]

Russian foreign minister condemned the recent attack on Pakistan's sovereignty a couple of hours ago but so far China has not passed a single statement in the favor of Pakistan?
Is this all weather friendship?
Is friendship with china deeper than oceans and higher and himmaliyas?

Pass comments over the silence of China.

Note: China also followed the same way in history when Pakistan was in the grip of chaos.

China has already issued the statement in favour of PAK.the statement was issued before Russia and was more severe than that of Russian one.

After going through these articles, i think Chinas response is good enough.
Keeping in view that in the aftermath of may 10 raid of bin ladin inside pakistan and the very threatening tone that America took with us, I remember it was solely because of Chinas severe response that America got off our backs and changed their tone and expressed the desire of 'co-operation' again. China went as far as saying that ' Any attack on Pakistans sovereignity will be considered an attack on China'.
In my opinion I think China's response is satisfactory as I have no doubts about how important it is for China that Pakistan remains stable.

As for russia, the statement is entirely diplomatic in the sense that russia obviously wants to counter the growing influence of America in our region. As for Pakistan, even though we got off to a bad start, its always in the interest of Russia to have good relations with Pakistan. This is also in reaction of growing influence and co-operation between America and India.

Il conclude by saying that in the current scenario,if posdiblethe Pakistan-China-Russia nexus can prove to be more beneficial and rewarding economically and for co-operation in trade, military and other areas. I think it is inevitable for countering America.

I welcome opinions that disagree or agree with me.

God bless

The state machinery here has a habit of idealizing China's relationship with Pakistan as some sort of a Romeo and Juliet affair of international relations.

Of course, as students, we know that there's no such thing as a "friendship" in international relations. Instead, only interests are permanent and as of now, China uses Pakistan to gain access to the Arabian Sea and the Persian Gulf to expand its naval presence beyond the South China Sea. China also buys up our raw materials and then dumps billions of dollars worth of Chinese goods into Pakistani markets due to which out local manufacturers either suffer or become bankrupt in some cases.

The scale Chinese investment is, at the same time, very insignificant in Pakistan as compared to its investment in South America and Africa (for the extraction of iron ore, oil and other resources).

This discussion was related to the attacks on pakistan and russia and china's condemnation and not on the economic nature of our relation. Pak-china relationship is much more than just sea routes and china's investment etc. They co-operate in many areas.
Yes, typically, countries being friends is based on the mutual interest of both. But no doubt pak-china relations have been exactly romeo juliet type. Much more like 'a friend in need is a friend indeed' policy that both have excercised,especially china. Also, this friendship is based on deep trust b/w the 2 countries. It is time tested since the inception of china.

Anyways its your opinion.
God bless
