Pakistan is 5 minutes away from a regime change, and abandoning the Western camp.

Saudi has just called back a huge multi-billion dollar loan to Pakistan.

Does this explain the IK visit to Russia? I thought Saudi called it back months ago.

If you have not noticed, Russia been courting Pakistan for the last few years.

Why? Modi is leaving Russian military hardware for US one, or so he threatens.

Second, Pakistan is broke, and is on the road to becoming Argentina 2.0. Even with the sorry state of Russian exchequer, Russia can probably spare a billion or so.

If it is not just Modi, then Putin wants a platz-de-arme in the region.
