Amidst the smoldering war between America and Iran in West Asia, Pakistan’s extremely hypocritical and dangerous face has once again been exposed before the world. On one hand, Pakistan is pretending to be a peace mediator between the two countries to please America, while on the other hand, behind the scenes, it is engaged in a secret game of supplying Chinese weapons to Iran. After this sensational revelation, there has been an uproar in international politics, and after the sharp reaction of US President Donald Trump, the problems of Pakistan and China may increase significantly.
Pakistan’s dangerous double game amid US-Iran war
At present the ongoing conflict between America and Iran has once again taken a dangerous turn. In response to Iranian attacks on American military bases in Jordan, America has once again launched a major counterattack on Iran. Amidst this geopolitical tension, Pakistan was claiming to mediate a peace agreement by presenting itself as a neutral and responsible country. But a recent report by Reuters has completely removed this mask of Pakistan. According to the report, China’s state-of-the-art weapons are being secretly transported to Iran using Pakistan’s soil, which is bound to anger America.
What is the truth about this secret arms deal between China and Iran?
According to the report, Iran is purchasing large quantities of weapons from China to make its military power and air defense system infallible. Under this secret deal, Iran is acquiring about 300 to 400 ‘Man-Portable Air Defense Systems’ (MANPADS), the total value of which is estimated to be around 60 to 70 million dollars i.e. 500 to 580 crore rupees in Indian currency. This entire defense deal includes China’s state-of-the-art QW-12 and FN-16 shoulder-fired missiles, which can enable the Iranian army to give a befitting reply to American attacks and missiles.
How is this arms smuggling game being carried out?
According to intelligence and media reports, the transit route of this arms supply between China and Iran is passing through Pakistan. Under the plan, this consignment of weapons from the western part of China i.e. Urumqi reaches Pakistan first. After this, under the cover of Pakistani military and logistics network, these deadly weapons are safely transported to the Iranian border by road or air. The involvement of Pakistan’s intelligence agencies and military machinery in this entire process is not being denied.
US President Donald Trump’s strong warning and displeasure
While answering the questions of journalists in the Oval Office, US President Donald Trump has expressed deep surprise and displeasure over this matter. Trump said in clear words that this report is very shocking and Chinese President Xi Jinping had promised him that China will not supply any kind of arms to Iran. Trump said in a warning tone that if this news proves to be true, it will be extremely disappointing for him and America, and a tough stance can be taken on this in the upcoming diplomatic meetings. On the other hand, after this big revelation, Pakistan Army’s media wing ISPR and Chinese Foreign Ministry have started a cover-up by rejecting all these reports outright.
