The
evolving international order means states are constantly reshaping
policies to suit their regional and international interests. There is
little room for permanence and hardly any constant friends or foes. A
country’s geographical location and strategic significance can at any
point in time make it desirable, despite its internal competency or lack
thereof. It is within the sovereign right of any country to choose its
allies. And that is how international relations work.
Since
the trilateral meeting on regional peace and stability between
representatives from Pakistan, Russia and China, expectations have been
snowballing on the likelihood of a pleasant reset in Pak-Russia
relations. In this terrain, Pakistan’s footing is shaky at best.
International media has not helped Pakistan’s case either. There is a
lot of speculation on Russia’s supposed ‘tilt’ towards Pakistan and the
dangers this tilt could pose to the future of Russia-India relations.
