Why China and the U.S. Are Vying for Dominance in Pakistan 

Its a common knowledge in Pakistan that the US abandoned Pakistan twice after using it and China never leaves Pakistan alone in a tough situation.

The Chinese have an old saying: Seeing the truth in trouble. Pakistani friends give us the most timely help when we need help. They give everything they have to help China . At the time of the Wenchuan earthquake in China, Pakistan used all of the country's transport planes and donated a large number of strategic reserve tents. Pakistan moved in Wenchuan is not just that. When Pakistan's first medical team reached the disaster area, and our reception staff would like to make a medical team proper living arrangements, their leader replied: Do not worry about us, we can only eat Vegetable leaf for good. Chinese and Pakistani are not just allies but true brothers！

US has already lost hearts of Pakistani people.

Mean , its up to Pakistan that who will be next super power , as they makes US super power in past by defeatin soviet union

Pakistan has suffered a lot by helping the USA in Afghanistan. No more.

The biggest issue with this video - fails to mention China and Pakistan’s very long and deep alliance

Once upon Time , United States of America bombed And killed 126 Pakistani soldier and wounded many ... And USA said that it was mistaken and they thought them as Talibani . If the same thing would have been done by Pakistan to the American soldiers ... USA would have declared war on Pakistan. On the Other hand we have never heard of any attack by China.. This proves that Pakistan and China are good friends forever.

Pakistan and China enjoy close and friendly relations since the establishment of diplomatic relations in May 1951. Pakistan was one of the first countries that recognized the People's Republic of China. Over the years, the relationship has blossomed into an “All-Weather Strategic Cooperative Partnership”. On other hand U.S Only used us for their Own deeds !!

I am a Chinese high school student. I love Pakistan. In history, Pakistan has helped us. The grace of dripping water, Yongquan reported that China will not forget this kindness. Long live China-Pakistan friendship

I hope Pakistan becomes a stable country. All the best to our Pakistani brothers and sisters. From India.

So Pakistan will decide who will become the next super power

Us makes enemies by seizing countries and China helps them grow and in the process helps themeselves too

Pakistan ; you magnificiently placed country

Because iron brothers support each other in need! Long live China Pakistan iron brotherhood!

It’s true that China went through some difficult times in the 1950s when no one would help china but Pakistan was there in their hard times. China and Pakistan relations began in 1950 when Pakistan was among the first countries to start official diplomatic relations with the Republic of China (on Taiwan) and recognize the People's Republic of China (PRC) regime on Mainland China. Pakistan used its influence to get China access the Middle East market in the Islamic world. Pakistan was at one point China's main bridge to the rest of the world. They also played an important role in bridging the communication gap between the PRC and the West by facilitating U.S. President Richard Nixon's historic 1972 visit to China. The relations between Pakistan and China goes further back before Pakistan existence when Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the future founder of Pakistan helped get rid of Japanese propagandists agents working against China. The founder of Pakistan used his influence in the World Islamic Congress in Hejaz, Muslim's anti-Japanese war effort received a pledge of support from Mohammed Ali Jinnah. The list is endless!

I have spent 2 years in Nanjing city. When i was student. So loving people's and they respect pakistani so much. Love China ❤️🇨🇳🇵🇰

As a matter of fact, China has been the ally of Pakistan at almost every problem Pakistan has faced. They have developed our defences by giving us technologies to be used in JF17 fighter jets, AlKhalid Tanks and missile technology. Pakistan’s nuclear powers has also been helped by chinese and now they’re investing huge amounts of money in a country which was nearly destroyed because it sided with the US in the war of terror and guess how the US helped us back. They join hands with India to make them their strategic partner in this region. Long live China-Pakistan Friendship.

Better Infrastructure means more growth. Also China doesn't force themselves on other countries like the US. I support China from europe

Support for strong Pakistan 🇵🇰 and China 🇨🇳 from Germany 🇩🇪

You first need to understand "why is China in Pakistan at all", should be "why is America in Pakistan at all".

Allying with the US in war on terror cost pakistan 120bn usd and over 70k live.. And still trump talks about 35 bn usd given to pakistan in around 35 years..

You know what China wants You know what the US wants What you don't know is what Pakistan wants. Pakistan is a geopolitical linchpin and we know that the geopolitical leverage we offer to the two superpowers is much more than a few billion dollars in monetary terms. We need CPEC and we need the US so don't expect Pakistan to become a "battleground". We're prepared for this scenario.

The US is so angry that someone is starting to do the same thing they've been doing all over the world for the past 70 years. LOL

I hope good things happen for Pakistan and they prosper.

this is a U.S. media, what u expect

I have read the whole comment section and i came to know that Pakistan and China really loves each other so why US is coming on their way?

China 🇨🇳 🇨🇳 🇷🇺 🇷🇺 🇵🇰 🇵🇰 tight buddies. Love Pakistan 🇵🇰 from your Chinese brothers.

i got acquainted with a good friend from pakistan in polen in 2017，and i also visited him in lahore this year，i really like the people there，really friendly，amazing place，will visit pakistan again！

When it comes to Foreign relations , there is no such thing as " Friend " Every country seeks there own benefits and have there own agenda !!! Cruel world !!!

Support Pakistan 🇵🇰 and China 🇨🇳 From Russia🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺✌️✌️

meh, an US media try to sum up the relationship between China and Pakistan… I'll just tell u that, China and Pakistan has a tight bonding beyond money.

What is he talking about? Pak-Chin relations have been friendly since 1949. US has only used us.

I'm American but the benefits of what China has to offer is much better than what the USA brings to the table in this scenario. We also have to consider that the USA is close allies with India which isn't in the best interest of Pakistan. This seems to be a clear future win for china...

America helps developing country....what a laugh

Lol why is China in Pakistan? Look at the map you doofus. Why is America in Pakistan?

It means super power made by pakistan..... 😂😂😂

The US has been in Afghanistan since 2007, why it has not built the Afghan economy and infrastructures yet?

Don’t believe much of this. Long live Pak China relationship.

Pakistan and china are best friends. 💕 whole world know about our friendship. China was the first country who accepted pakistan in 1947. 💕

Pakistan Always Like " Ace of Spade " for USA But still not get a Positive Numeric from US. while China fully know the importance of Pakistan.

Why doesn't the US just fund infrastructure in Pakistan instead?

People over here they think they know how the international politics works, they be like "friends forever" "brotherhood" "BFF" "love forever", stfu, we don't have a clue what our governments are up to, go focus on your jobs and making a good life for your family, this level of politics can only be understood once you reach to that level, beneath it, we're all just a bunch of fools trying to prove a point. ✌️

It is simple. We are Iron Brothers! We call Pakistan 巴(Pakistan)铁 (Iron)!!!

🇵🇰Love china🇨🇳 no one break our friendship and brotherhood . 🇨🇳 china Zindabad

Pakistan should make a Union with Iran and Turkey. connecting China and Europe

$o many countries are interfering in China-Pak friendship but it's not that easy to destroy this bond of friendship. Long Live China-Pakistan.

Support for strong Pakistan 🇵🇰 and China 🇨🇳

Idk, but recently USA slowly shift their support to India(Chinese and also Pakistani sworn rivals) this might loosening US grasp and tightening Chinese grasp in Pakistan

*As a Russian & a friend of China, India & Pakistan, I just wish China de-escalates border tensions with India (war with India is not a good idea trust me) & pardon our friend Pakistan of some loan (keep the interest realistic). India is definitely gonna be a huge superpower in the next 5-10 years but I also see huge potential in Pakistani people, Pakistanis are also a hardworking population & I wish they progress fast as well. Good luck to all 3 of you. No point in fighting with each other, we must fight the West together.*

Long live China Pakistan 🇨🇳🇵🇰

Love Pakistan. Greetings from China

My country my motherland will never be going in the hands of usa. Never

Seriously WHY should the US twart the Chinese belt and road initiative? Because it is good for the Chinese economy? This is such absurd thinking. This seems like a benefit for everybody IMHO. Pakistan getting major new infrastructure, should be good for their economy and future. Why should one fight an initiative which would radically improve infrastructure in a poor country? The US needs to stop obsessing about its own ego. It is more important that the world develops than that the US gets to call itself number one in the world. For us living in the west, a richer China and Pakistan is a good thing. It means they can buy more of our products and services, and they will be able to offer more products and services to us. Given how much we fret about immigration from the third world, it should be in our best interest that the third world develops and people there see no need to move to the west.

Wall Street Journal, are you really that dense or are you just fulfilling your ulterior motives? There is no way that China would allow Pakistan's economy to crumble. A core part of their mission in the Middle East is to ensure its stability, primarily Pakistan due to its EXTREME geopolitical significance to China. China would never do "Debt Trap" diplomacy on Pakistan and have them resort to compromises on their relationship because it is far too important. A key ally to counter India, a border country to Xinjiang, an alternative trade route, and country that has one of the world's largest populations. China knows how to treat their allies even better than their business partners. I doubt that the US really wants to put in the time, money, and effort into Pakistan as India is more important to the US.

Pakistanis by heart r with chinees our tested friends and neighbours

I spent 5 years in China.. They are true brothers.♥

PAKISTAN ZINDABAD! Love you China! We r not the enemy of Us... Bt America always loks his own purposes.... Nd uses us....

Now the new Partner in CPEC is Saudia Arabia. Saudia Arabia is building "Oil city" in CPEC. Benefit is China will get Oil in 7-days rather than 40-days..

There is a saying in Pakistan. if USA is your friend, you don't need an enemy. Best thing in this regard I think for Pakistan is to nether make a friend or foe of USA. Pull out of USA's war of terrorism and seal Pak-Afghan boarder.

What can I say I love being Pakistani 😂

Missed the gwadar port completely- it’s the access of oil to western China right from the mouth of harmouz- if China loses Pakistan, it’s loses it alternative route to oil for western China thru Pakistan

Americunt is jealous of China wherever China goes Africa,middle east,EU, south Americunt oh what are you doing here

Pak have to join China bcz China not only thinks about its own prosperity also share with Pakistan instead of America. Also China and Pakistan have share borders. Also in future China use Pakistan roads for import and export from Arabs, Africa and Europe etc.

Small Pakistan Stood up to Giant India and made India back off. Hullo, China.

US dont want see other country grow better than it.

It is surprising to know that how much Pakistan matters

Love for pakistan and china --from Nepal

The fact is no one can super power without joining with Pakistan

China has lots of friends in the world, but Pakistan always is the best one.

Go Pakistan ! Love from China !

USA left us in difficult situations. Long LIVE 🇨🇳

🇵🇰 🇨🇳 Iron brothers n remain brothers forever

But we already choose China 🇨🇳 🙄 So bye bye 👋

China Respond to CPEC Debt Trap to Pakistan Theories by Local & International Media The Chinese embassy in Pakistan on Monday issued a rebuttal to an article published in the Wall Street Journal saying CPEC led to a debt crisis of Pakistan was a highly irresponsible statement which failed to portray the reality. A press release issued by the Chinese embassy stated “The report from the Wall Street Journal severely deviates from the facts. As a major pilot project of Belt and Road Initiative, China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) has achieved great progress in the last 5 years. CPEC has effectively alleviated energy crisis and infrastructure shortage which are considered as two bottlenecks in Pakistan’s development, and played a positive role in maintaining the relatively high economic growth in Pakistan.” In response to the Lahore Orange Line Project, the Chinese embassy added “has been widely welcomed by the Pakistani government and people, creating a large number of job opportunities. After the completion, it will greatly ease the traffic congestion in Lahore and provide people with affordable energy-saving transportation.” Furthermore, the statement mentioned “According to data released by the Pakistani government, 42% of foreign debt of Pakistan is from multilateral financial institutions, 18% of the debt is from Paris Club. Chinese preferential loans only account for only 10% of whole foreign debt and offer a much lower rate than commercial bank loans.” Also, the Chinese embassy in Pakistan said, “As to the people who fabricated the lie that the so-called “debt trap” in Pakistan is caused by CPEC, if they are unable to offer tangible assistance to Pakistan, they can at least try to put the sincere cooperation between other countries in perspective.” It clarified that the initiator of this so-called “debt trap” wasn’t China From this perspective, even if there is a so-called “debt trap”, the initiator is not China, said the embassy. It concluded “The cooperation under CPEC has always adhered to the principles of mutual benefit, equality and reciprocity, follows the golden rules of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits. The planning and implementation of the CPEC has been discussed by the both sides in the open. No country is dominating the process. Both sides have an equal say.” “Firmly promoting CPEC is an across-party national consensus in Pakistan and received the wholehearted support from the Pakistani people. We believe that the CPEC will be advanced in a steady manner in accordance with the consensus reached by China and Pakistan without being disturbed by other factors. We hope that relevant media reports could respect the truth, take off their tinted glasses, and make more objective, unbiased and all-sided reports. Their readers deserve the true story,” said the Chinese embassy. #PakistanAffairs, #CPEC

China Nd Pakistan are friends forever nd opponents of both the neighbors want to fade the friendship of Islamabad nd Beijing.In reality they (Opponents) don't know that the friendship of China-Pakistan is higher than mountains,deeper than the oceans,sweeter than honey nd stronger than steel. 🇵🇰🤝🇨🇳 Zindaabad 💜❤👍👌

The map of Belt and Road Initiative is wrong at 1:00 India is not a part of BRI

Love Pakistan from China

Yes Pakistan rejected IMF loan so hopefully they are looking for China help because Imran Khan trust China way more than USA and China friendship means alot to Pakistan and its people....

Pak china friendship live long 💯❤

Country x:We would invest in infrastructure around the world so our economy could grow faster USA:That’s a threat to us!How do you dare to invest in infrastructure to grow your economy!!You are not allowed to do that because we are incompetent and we won’t have the ability to rival you

After CPEC infrastructure, China can also help Pakistan in manufacturing industry (Pakistan found oil, can export not only petroleum, but also petroleum related chemical engineering products) like JF-17!

We are taught in childhood that China is our best friend ,a true brother!

1:00 'Across 68 countries' shows India 🤦🏻‍♂️

Who else is watching this while in quarantine..

Only 10% of Pakistan's total debt is owned by Chinese rest of it is non-Chinese I don't think we are in that situation.

Pakistan will act in it's best interests. There are no permanent friends nor enemies. China and US have their interests and we in Pakistan will put our interests before any alliance.

You need Pakistan for Global dominance. That's what British knew in 1940s.

Pakistan-China great #Friendship 🇵🇰 🇨🇳

As a Pakistani living in Pakistan . I personally think , that USA would now not be dominant in our region anymore or they have the least chances to be dominant . They have already bombed and killed 1000s innocents as well as some terrorists in our motherland . They have insulted our Government and called our soil every last bad that u cannot even imagine to be said by someone to its major non-NATO ally ! On the other hand China’s influence is growing in Pakistan because of there willingness to upgrade Pakistan’s economy and Military Equipments by giving Soft Loans and selling at Armaments . However, HERE IN PAKISTAN . People have reached to the idea that trusting China would be Like trusting another America ! And also understanding the DEBT TRAP OF CHINA ! IF IMRAN KHAN IS REALLY A MAN OF HONOUR, HE MUST END US BASES AND INFLUENCE IN PAKISTAN AND ALSO KEEP CHINA OFF BALANCE FROM ITS PLANNED DEBT TRAP !

It is impossible to occupy Pakistan geographically but you can conquer the hearts of people living in Pakistan. Thats why China and Pakistan share smooth relationships

We can pay all loans easily in next 30 years China is not only giving us loans they are also doing direct investment in Pakistan China have invested 5-6 billion dollars in our Energy Sector 😁 US just want to dictate every country. China is our oldest alley and China is our iron brother 🇵🇰❤️🇨🇳💪💪💪

Reasons for China: Pakistan is neighboring country. We want peace, mutual prosperity, and safe trade routes. Reasons for US: I want whatever China wants.

Pakistan and China are trusted friends .. Long live friendship

Out of date analysis. Dynamics have totally changed now that there are many other investors joining the project. So checkmate!!

When I road tripped in south Xinjiang, I saw fleets of Pakistani trucks went by. We exchange friendly waves and honks. Roads and rail roads will definitely broaden trades and bring more benefits to both countries.

Remember China Pakistan Turkey are brothers never divide we are together will always be no matter what

-=:NO POWER IN THIS WORLD CAN UNDO PAKISTAN:=

Pakiston, don't forget how the West handled the Middle East and Afghanistan. US is a war monger and you'll suffer similar fates.

One of the most underrated country pakistan is rising but silently.

Loads of Prayers for Pakistan ..may Allah preserve our Pakistani and turkish muslims and strengthen the rest as well,ameen !!
