Pakistan would have respected China's efforts to convince India before the attack

Islamabad: Pakistan is dependent on China for most of its needs and it has invested heavily in Pakistan. But Pakistan is angry with the attacks on its citizens. Now it seems certain that trade relations with Pakistan will be curtailed or curtailed. So a few days ago, Pakistan's new Foreign Minister Isak Dar had said in London that Pakistan will seriously consider restarting trade relations with India.

After India in 2019 abrogated Article 370 of the Constitution that gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir and bifurcated it into two union territories – Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh, Pakistan took the decision unilaterally. Indian trade came to a standstill.

After this, Pakistan Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Balo, in response to a question asked in the weekly press conference on trade relations with India, said that “the government is reviewing the proposal to restart trade with India.”

However, he also said that there has been no change in Pakistan's attitude at this stage.

In fact, observers say that Pakistan's newly appointed Foreign Minister Isak Dar hinted at re-establishing trade relations with India in a press conference in London on March 23, saying that Pakistan is now largely dependent on Chinese goods. Is. But recently, due to the series of attacks on Chinese citizens and ending or reducing trade relations with it, trade exchanges with India are becoming 'decisive'. It is well known that China-Pakistan relations have soured after the death of six people, including five Chinese nationals (engineers), in a collision between a truck and an explosive-laden vehicle in Bisham district of Khyber Makhnu province on Tuesday.
