CPEC will aggravate India-Pak tension: US think-tank

WASHINGTON: The multi-billion dollar China- Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) will deepen China's already formidable presence in the South Asian nation, and "aggravate" tension between India and Pakistan, a US think-tank said today.
"CPEC will deepen China's already formidable presence in the country and clearly aggravate India-Pakistan tensions. In addition, real questions persist about Pakistan's ability to finance its share of new energy investment," Michael Kugelman, deputy director and senior associate for South Asia Program at the Wilson Center said in a report published today.
According to him, even though the CPEC may enable Pakistan to generate more power, it will not solve the country's broader energy crisis, which is rooted in factors that go well beyond supply shortages.
"Stability in Pakistan's security situation and economic performance is increasingly in critical interest for Beijing because it is a precondition for CPEC's success. Given New Delhi's strenuous opposition, CPEC will exacerbate India- Pakistan tensions," Kugelman wrote. -

China is not afraid India and PoK is currently under Pak''s occupation. China has asked Pak''s permission on any project it wants to do. India is too greedy because India has already occupied Jammu Kashmir which is also disputed land. -

When the West can make and we can't, they laugh and scorn.
When the West can make and we can make, they say you copy and plagiarize.
When the West can't build, when we can, their dogs jump on the wall, resist directly, or even catch your people.
