They really haven't tbh. (Since its stuff that produces that matters the most i.e factories, rather than white elephant infra brochures). Its projected loans...90% or more of it (given low factory commitment since China is unsure how long it needs to hold onto these for its own people). That is...

LOL some of the replies here (and other places) crack me up now tbh. Some noobs simply don't even read what US said about various wargames it did with USSR force projections either. US MIC always wants to be well financed....they got (non-military) people controlling their funding. They will...

Say hypothetically India flatlines in major (unforseen) way for 10 years and Pakistan on other hand gets nearly everything projected in CPEC MOU brochures (incl the promised transfer of low tier factories). 10 years thus would be the (lower threshold) time is takes for Pakistan to catch up on...

Short term look tbh. AZ would want Turkey to be as strong and economically powerful as possible...and any payment pressure for AZ (w.r.t goods, military or not) is handled by appropriate mechanism from Turkish side (specific long term loans etc). Weak Turkish economy (by weak TL and thus...

Not surprising, they have been doing this sheep + parrot routine in media for quite some time now....in rush for clickbait alarmism...and excuse inertia of "trusted" sources. Credible objective 101 journalism (got a legit source???...what/where was the original one? etc.) is really on decline.

This is far into the future and needs Pakistan to produce some concrete deliverables to India to show they actually mean business....as opposed to the last 3 years of their drama grandstanding....and last 3 decades of atrocious behaviour on this matter. Otherwise this will just be filed in the...

If it were so simple, why does China have very high and good credit rating from same agencies? Similarly many more pro-US countries have far worse credit ratings than China. They (China) are far greater of a threat to west/US, yet that stuff is kept to political paradigm/theatre...with no...

https://firestarter.substack.com/p/akash-ng In Jan 2021, India tested its brand new Akash NG (New Generation) program. Name apart, this is a radically new system which overhauls the entire Akash architecture and has little resemblance to its predecessor. It offers the IAF a totally Indian...

This is just from the change/intention of the appointment. The more long term setting of TL/USD will depend on the actual interest rate decreases that are done by him. I mean the guy is even bringing up quantitative easing policy of developed countries to push for low interest rate regime in...

An excellent read @Saiyan0321 , congrats and kudos my friend. I knew very little about this course of events and you have fleshed it out in sustained detail. Your conclusion is spot on, let us hope for the best going foward.

Chills each time.....

This whole earlier post (and following analysis/convo with others) I made is now thrown out the window into gutter it looks like. It was predicated on the beginning statements of it: This is real pity as Turkey with reforms could have soaked in good investment (locked up worldwide due to...

Just economic pressure getting to them and they want some pressure relief valve since CPEC is nowhere close to some bonanza since absolutely no factories are arriving from it....and instead a whole bunch of debt that will need to be paid in actual forex (not inflated PKR). India should treat...

Same goes for the other side if war escalates to this tier. This is to help with getting border well resourced closer to critical areas....before the actual war (whatever tier of it) breaks out....so that the option is available to do a good build up ...and hopefully dissuading such conflict in...
