Sharif Government in full mood to join Iran camp and strengthen pro-China Bloc
What message would that be to the United States at a time when sanctions on businesses supplying missile parts to Pakistan has coincided with Iranian President’s trip?

Pakistan’s Ambassador to the U.S. issued a statement yesterday that in his recent talks with U.S. officials, he found the mood in favor of Pakistan at the capitol. One wonders, how could that statement be justified when sanctions on Pakistani suppliers followed the said claim?
This clearly means, the Pakistani diplomacy in Washington DC has failed at the capitol, or lacks understanding of U.S. policies. This needs to be fixed. Everything is not okay, as reported!
The Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline is not a peanut. Yes, the Shahbaz government can establish an economic consortium with Iran under the shelter of China but should very well understand that China is beneficiary to 478 billion dollars of positive trade with the United States, and over 120 billion dollars of positive trade with India each year, whereas it only benefits around 12 billion dollars of positive trade with Pakistan annually.
Economic priorities are the backbone in the success of diplomacy.
I hope the current oligarchy understands that whosoever tries to deliver a concession to Pakistan in facilitating cheaper power supplies or gas pipeline by convincing the lawmakers and the administration is no less a national hero, at a time when the country has been pushed to knees as beggars in the global market. Using tools in lobbying is not limited to the use of money. The United States national security supplants all such interests.
Do not take your assets for a free ride, while DAKOO’S enjoy the cabinet perks, an advice.
Free ride for the honest and credible will not work.
I hope it is understood.
The DAKOO CVs and resumes have been tested time and again in the past 50 years. The net result is a writing on the wall.
I hope Syria, Iraq and Sudan models have been studied by the oligarchy.
Pakistan is not a guineapig for a new test to be conducted by the inept and BAs (below average) fake leaders, while the competent leadership is questioned to prove their worth!
I wonder, if those claiming to bring peanut capitals into Pakistan have anything in their baskets to justify fair earnings?
How long would such dirty money help Pakistan?
Are Tessoris and Wavdas, the standards of leadership to run Pakistan? Please ask to yourself!
Do not frustrate honest and competent leadership by placing them into the dumpster!
