Pakistan Mineral Deal: Will America Learn What China Didn’t In Balochistan | World News
Yeni Delhi: After signing a mineral and mining agreement with the USA, Pakistan may be in the seventh paradise .. However, the facts are different, and this agreement can actually worse the security concerns in Balochistan. There is already violence in the region, and Pakistan and Chinese interests have faced several mishaps. The people of Baloch warned the United States against this new agreement, so in the long run, they may not all go according to Pakistan’s wishes.
With the increase in the number of attacks on economic infrastructure, there is no guarantee that any US investment will be safe. The people of Balochistan constantly complained that the developmental works and agreements in their regions have never benefited them. Since these agreements never encounter their consent, they see it as a spoils.
Pakistan, Sauinda, Reno Diq and China-Pacific Economic Corridor Project, such as projects do not seem to understand that they are not as expected. Therefore, there is no guarantee that US investments in the region will not face the same fate.
Previously, Chinese projects were faced with resistance and political condemnation. However, he sees a deadly attack today. Such events did not help the cause of China, and despite a strong military presence in the region, the basic infrastructure is not built.
Since Donald Trump took over as the US President, he has been aligned with Pakistan, unlike Joe Biden. In the White House, when Field Marshal hosted Asim Munir, they made a new agreement to improve Pakistan’s large oil reserves. However, is there a lot of oil when Pakistan is considered to be a major importer? If there are not too much oil, the US interests may be natural resources that Balochistan believes.
The Trump administration may also want to control China’s global critical mineral supply by entering agreements in Pakistan. The US army is actually the largest consumer of critical minerals, which is necessary for power drone fleets and directed energy weapons. Today, China dominates the global supply. In fact, China uses so many power on this front that it forced the US to go to the negotiating table and end the Chinese-US trade war.
China has learned the hard way in Balochistan. The question is that, will the United States learn the hard way because the issues in Balochistan are not logistics, but because it is political? The United States, of course, would have to deal with the struggle for self -determination by the people of the region and should use the suppression tactics for it.
Pakistan did not think through various factors due to financial conditions. Already the debtor and any agreement can only be acceptable for inefficient Islamabad. In summary, everything looks good on paper, but it would be difficult if the United States did not take into account the voices of the Baloch people in Balochistan.
The Pakistani army may offer protection, but if China has a record of protection in the region, there is nothing about Tom-Tom. While the Pakistan army managed to suppress people to some extent, the situation was out of control today. There were many suicide attacks that made some of the CPEC project useless.
