This September, for Pakistan, could be said to be the highest moment of diplomacy in recent decades.
I saw a Pakistani netizen complaining:Some people always say that Pakistani diplomacy is isolated, but you see, this month, we will meet with the leaders of the three countries.
This is fact.
Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz came to China, attended the Shanghe Tianjin Summit, attended the military parade on Victory Day in 1993, and naturally met with Chinese and Russian leaders.
One of the difficulties of Pakistan's diplomacy is its relations with the United States.
The United States was once a good friend of Pakistan, but after the end of the Cold War, the United States and India became closer and closer, which posed a serious challenge to Pakistan.
Compared with India's versatility, diplomacy has always been Pakistan's weakness.
But the situation is changing.
It was noted that on 25 September, the Chief of Staff of the Pakistan ArmyMarshal Munir walked into the White House for the third time. This time, he was accompanied by Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz.
Watching the disclosure pictures and videos, the hosts talked and laughed especially brilliantly.
Trump and Shahbaz shook hands warmly and gave the iconic thumbs up.
Trump also introduced his ambitious plan to reform the White House to Pakistani guests, and Marshal Munir also spoke closely with politicians such as FBI Director Patel.
Unlike Trump’s consistent approach, the White House talks were not open to the media.
A statement issued after the meeting of the Prime Minister's office said the meeting was conducted in a pleasant atmosphere, and Vice President Wences and Secretary of State Rubio also attended the meeting.
During talks on regional security issues, Shabaz thanked Trump for "openly supporting Pakistan's role in the field of counter-terrorism" and stressed "the need to further strengthen cooperation between the two countries in security and intelligence."
Pakistan is happy in the eyebrows, the Indian is jealous in the heart.
I saw an article in the Times of India wrote like this,"Most of Trump's political career has been ridiculing Pakistan as a deceptive safe haven for terrorism... But the photos released by Pakistan show that Shahbaz and Munir sat in the magnificent Oval Office and had a talk that allegedly lasted 80 minutes, and then took a photo with Trump, who was smiling and gave a thumbs up."
The Indian media also referred to the meeting as"America's biggest turn since 1971".
Why is this happening?
I have to say,The essence of international diplomacy is to find the best balance in a changing pattern.
The Pakistani people are also prepared for food.
In front of Trump,Shabaz praised Trump as a “peaceful person” and this year also “helped to avoid a major disaster in South Asia.”
Earlier, Pakistan also publicly nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize.
This should all be boasted in Trump's heart.
Remember, in a recent UN speech, Trump declared that in just a few months, “I’ve ended seven wars.”“Unfortunately, the United Nations didn’t even help facilitate one of them,” he said, “I only got one faulty automatic ladder from the United Nations.”
Which seven?
Trump listed them one by one,The first one was the India-Pakistan conflict.
But compared with Pakistan's intellectual interests, Modi is very ungrateful.
In any case, India believes that the end of the conflict in India and Pakistan is entirely Pakistan's initiative to call for reconciliation and has nothing to do with Trump. Trump marks his own merit, is intentionally picking peaches, eating Modi and Indian tofu.
This made Trump angry, and it is said that the United States imposed high tariffs on India, a big reason, is to avenge Modi's ignorance.
In the field of diplomacy, gestures are sometimes more engaging than power.
Pakistan is still alive.
One photo shows that this time at the White House, the Pakistani MarshalMunir also introduced Trump to Pakistan's rare-earth gold and other minerals, with Trump siding his head and listening carefully.
Pakistan, Pakistan, it really knows how to invest in people's liking.
I saw that a foreign commentator sighed:“Pakistan has very cleverly attracted the attention of the U.S. government and used its broader global interests in cryptocurrencies and critical minerals to market its products.”
But it's not over yet.
The next day, Pakistani Prime Minister Shabaz, dressed in a light costume, appeared at the United Nations forum."The enemy came with arrogance, and we made them retreat disgraced and bloodshed."
He regrets :“When our territorial integrity was violated, our forces operated with amazing professionalism, repelled enemy attacks and turned seven Indian warplanes into garbage.”
Oh, not the original 5: 0, nor the later revealed 6: 0, it turned out to be 7: 0.
Pakistan is really breathing.
Of course, Shabaz, who spoke well, also emphasized in his speech the “positive role” that Trump played in facilitating the ceasefire.
He also thanked China, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Azerbaijan, Iran, the United Arab Emirates and the UN Secretary-General for their diplomatic support to Pakistan.
These words will come to Trump’s ears.
There are only two words left in India: air-fried.
India's permanent diplomat at the United Nations strongly rejected Shabaz's remarks.Shabats is performing “absurd theatrical performances.”
She also denied Pakistan had won the conflict, saying"If the damaged runway and hangar are regarded as a victory, then Pakistan can say the same".
Among the Indians, he complained that it was indeed a frozen dead sheep in June.
But an indisputable fact is that this September, Pakistani diplomacy, was really shocking.
Finally, three superficial views.
First, the international landscape is changing rapidly.
India is an old culprit, and the world knows it.
Behind the old wrongdoers, the world is also aware that China and Pakistan are the Iron Fighters, Russia and the United States, often on the side of India.
But what now?
Has changed dramatically!
China and Pakistan are still very iron, Russian-India relations are still good. but we see that the US-India cracks are growing, the United States imposes a tariff of 50% on India, the highest in the world; India has a shoulder behind the United States and is too rude.
The United States and Pakistan are fast approaching.Field Marshal Munir has become a regular visitor to the White House, and now Prime Minister Shahbaz has also gone to Trump's office.
What about this way?
The United States and India continue to complain to each other, and trade talks are also in a standstill.
Oh, in recent days, Trump met Pakistani guests and Bangladeshi guests at the White House, but he didn't see an Indian guest. On the contrary, many Indians had problems with their visas to the United States.
This should have been done for Modi.
The restructuring of international relations often goes beyond the imagination of traditional camps.
Second, Pakistan does do work as well.
Without comparison, there is no harm.
On this side, Modi refused to admit Trump's contribution to promoting peace, and did not hesitate to publicly hit Trump's face; On the other side, Pakistan thanked Trump one by one and nominated Trump to win the Nobel Prize.
It's no wonder that Trump smiled brightly when he saw Pakistani guests.
And, knowing Trump’s love for rare earth, Pakistan simply introduced its rare earth reservoir directly.
Looking at the materials, it is said that Pakistan has $8 trillion in rare earths, gold and other minerals, which makes Trump really itchy.
Trump, Trump, Pakistan seems to have studied you.
Third, everything ultimately depends on practice.
Diplomacy is an art, but diplomacy is the foundation of domestic affairs.
To put it bluntly, without the victory in the India-Pakistan war, can Shahbaz have such confidence to deliver a speech at the United Nations?
Surely, without Pakistan's victory on the battlefield, Trump wouldn't invite three times eitherMarshal Munir is a guest at the White House, and now he warmly receives Prime Minister Shahbaz.
Without this victory, Saudi Arabia would not have signed a joint defense agreement with Pakistan and would gladly accept Pakistan’s nuclear umbrella.
True confidence always comes from one's own strength and determination.
This world, the purpose is very important, but more important, it is practical.
Latest news on September 28,Two aircraft of the Chinese Air Force delivered 20 aircraft, carrying large amounts of disaster relief supplies to Pakistan.
Since June this year, Pakistan has suffered from severe floods, causing heavy casualties and property losses. China lent a helping hand at the first time. This is hardcore friendship.Help in trouble is better than a thousand words.
Finally, it should be emphasized that the task of development is still very heavy.
Pakistan also needs unremitting efforts and a peaceful and stable environment.
Of course, India, why don't you?
Long live in peace, development is hard!
