@Med911 There was a notion before CPEC that Pakistan should take advantage of Indian market, and industry and allow them ground route to Afghanistan and Central Asia. If we look Pakistan, cold war was successful attempt of US to stop Russia’s reaching warm water. No nation of Central Asia able to achieve this. China on the other hand surprisingly emerged luckiest one. They build Gawadar port, and in next phase they will build road from Gawadar to China. Easy access of warm water connects them major ports and route of world e.g Suez Canal. This road will make Pakistan economical stronger, and notion of Indian industry and market has died now. Indian PM’s anti Pakistan rehotic in Bangladesh, surgical strike Myanmar are actually reaction. China has also interest in Mayanmar. China is also not recognizing Indian cliam of its territory.

Who knows…

But imagine what would happen if there is a major escalation along the border, India fires on what it believes are terrorists, Pakistani forces respond, Indian soldiers are killed… Suddenly all this rhetoric comes to a boil, public anger in India demands retribution, and Indian govt is forced to follow through on threats because not doing so would mean losing face… Then there is potential for the whole thing to spiral out of control.

The Modi govt is very aggressive and rather foolish. No other way to describe such a belligerent bunch. Whatever their motivation might be.
