Palestine and Iran join forces, a wonderful game for China!

Pakistan is Sunni, Iran is Shia, and Pakistan is sponsored by Saudi Arabia, so Iran and Pakistan used to have a hostile relationship, and there was an exchange of fire on the border between the two countries in previous years. However, who would have thought that after China mediated the reconciliation between Iran and Saudi Arabia last year, Iran and Pakistan not only reconciled, but also launched comprehensive cooperation in counter-terrorism and other aspects by "helping" each other to eliminate *** a few days ago. The foreign ministers of Iran and Pakistan also met just now.

According to Pakistan's "Dawn" newspaper, on January 29, local time, Iranian Abdollahian visited Islamabad and held talks with Pakistani Governor Jilani. Iran and Pakistan respect each other's sovereignty and territorial integrity and agree to strengthen cooperation in border security and the fight against terrorism, the two said at a joint press conference. Not only that, but the two sides also held a press conference after the talks, and confirmed that the two sides agreed to "take further actions in border security and the fight against terrorism" and expand **, commercial and economic cooperation.

Note the wording of the foreign ministers of Iran and Pakistan at the press conference, in which the two sides agreed to "take further actions in the area of border security and the fight against terrorism." The connotation of this sentence is very profound, which means that the two countries will join hands to clear the *** on the border. In the past, the most fundamental reason why this region hid a lot of *** was that Pakistan and Iran did not have a good relationship, ** ran to Iran when Pakistan attacked, and ran to Pakistan when Iran hit it, the two countries did not cooperate *** The depth of activities is too large, and there are national borders apart, of course, there is no way to eliminate. So, what do these terrorist groups rely on to survive? One of the most important economic ** is the United States, India, Israel and other countries, they have created security problems for Pakistan, Iran, and China by supporting these terrorist organizations. Of course, looking at this problem from a higher dimension is to prevent the advancement of China's "Belt and Road" initiative.

However, now that Pakistan and Iran are directly joining forces, and with China's support behind them, there is no room for the region's *** to survive. In particular, if Afghanistan joins the crackdown and China assists in doing so, terrorist groups from South and Central Asia could be eliminated in the future.

If Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, and Central Asia are all connected, and they all have very good relations with China, and everyone works together to fight terrorism, not only will terrorism in the region be controlled, but the economic development of the region will also usher in the best opportunity. More importantly, China's periphery has become safer, and China's strategic depth in the west has been opened, which is simply a wonderful result!

In 2010, China's leaders proposed the Belt and Road Initiative, and in 2012, the United States proposed a "New Silk Road", which includes India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and five Central Asian countries, with the aim of cutting off China's Silk Road Economic Belt initiative. However, the United States is obviously whimsical, how can India and Pakistan cooperate? Afghanistan was so chaotic at that time, and it was impossible for the five Central Asian countries to listen to the United States, so the plan was just mentioned, and then it disappeared.

So why is this a wonderful game for China? Because of this, China's approach is different from that of the United States. On the one hand, if India does not play China's Belt and Road Initiative, then India is excluded. Pakistan and Kazakhstan are the most important partners of China's Belt and Road Initiative, and China and Iran and other Central Asian countries also cooperate with the Belt and Road Initiative. In this case, from Central Asia to the Middle East, everyone is integrated together all of a sudden, there are no important contradictions between countries, everyone fights terrorism together, and cooperates to make money, which can be described as a group of harmony!

If China solves the problem of terrorism in Central Asia, Russia in the north, Kazakhstan and other five Central Asian countries in the middle, Afghanistan and Pakistan in the south, and Iran in the west, if this area is connected, there is no terrorism, it means that this place has become a "forbidden zone" that the United States cannot get into at all.

If we look at the map of the entire Eurasian continent, we will find that in East Asia, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, China, are now standing with the United States, and Southeast Asia as a whole is the Philippines jumping, but the result of the jump is that the interior begins to tear apart, in fact, the United States cannot really affect the country of the Philippines, and there will be people who will turn against the water at the critical moment. So, if even Central Asia, South Asia and the Middle East, all these are all opened, and there is no room for the United States, let's take a closer look, such a big place, plus Russia, those anti-American countries in the Middle East, what hegemony does the United States have in Eurasia? If the United States ends up in the Middle East, as its power declines, there will be less and less room for him to control the entire Eurasian continent, especially if Russia takes Ukraine down. So, it's a wonderful game, it's just wonderful!

Will the United States and India be sabotage? Can the clouds and fog clear in Central Asia?!

The United States, India, and Israel certainly have the idea of sabotage with regard to Pakistan-Iran cooperation, and for the possible future counter-terrorism between the two countries and Afghanistan, but objectively it is too difficult to implement. The reason is very simple, on the one hand, Pakistan is a ferromagnetic China, Iran is a sworn enemy of the United States, Afghanistan is also a sworn enemy of the United States, they will not listen to the United States at all, the United States has no influence on them, how can they engage in sabotage? At most, support *** support *** can't withstand the joint efforts of many countries to exterminate; On the other hand, what tricks does the United States use, and behind these countries there is a country whose strength is comparable to that of the United States, and how can the United States stop it at China's doorstep?

In the past, the reason why the United States was able to exert influence in the region was that China did not compete with the United States, and on the other hand, it was mainly because it was impossible for Pakistan, Iran, and Afghanistan to come together. But now it's different, the situation is completely reversed, and now there is no need for China's mediation, people themselves have started to do it, this is the times have changed!

As for India and Israel, their capabilities in these places are even more limited, and it is unlikely that they will really interfere with the current general situation. Therefore, Zhan Hao believes that this time, Central Asia is really going to open the clouds and fog! In the future, once terrorism in the whole of Central Asia is eliminated, with the development capacity of China's economy, these places will usher in great development in the future, and China's Xinjiang will also usher in rapid economic development!

What will happen to Xinjiang by that time? Did you see last year's Tohoku? GDP has changed from a laggard to a leader, that is, the Russian-Ukrainian war has opened up the external space of the Northeast, and the development of the Russian Far East, coupled with the outlet to the sea in Vladivostok, has been revitalized all of a sudden.

Therefore, I believe that not only will Central Asia be cleared in the future, but Xinjiang will also usher in great economic development in five years!
