Ever since 1947, Pakistani lefties and commies have been jumping up and down for the trade with Russians.
The reality is that Russian economy and Russian strategic interests DO NOT match with Pakistan.
Therefore it never worked out for Pakistan to get any long term benefit from them. In fact Indians the biggest crock for Ruskies have dumped Russia for pretty much the same reasons.
Funny that 50-80% of trade surplus of India, china, S. Korea, Singapore, Japan is with the USA and EU. The biggest export destination for Pakistani products is the USA.
Russia is trying its level best to continue the anarchy in Afghanistan just so that the central Asian resources remain under Ruskie thumb.
But Pakistan's leftie and socialist intellectuals will keep on singing Ruskie songs. da da da dadadada dada dasvidania.
