Beijing/Islamabad
The war of independence of Baloch has stirred up Pakistan. Pakistan does not understand how to keep Balochistan under control. If the situation deteriorates, not only Pakistan will break, but the investment of billions of dollars by China will also be drowned. On the other hand, after hijacking the Jafar Express last week, the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) has once again attacked the Pakistan Army in Balochistan. BLA blew up a bus carrying Pakistan soldiers and claimed that at least 90 soldiers were killed in his attack. That is, the Balochs have stepped up the freedom struggle against the Pakistan government, due to which China has offered military assistance to Pakistan immediately.
According to the report, China has offered military assistance to Pakistan to help Pakistan in anti -terrorism campaign. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning has said on the question asked about the Jafar Express Hijack, “We have noticed the reports and strongly condemned this terrorist attack.” A spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry has said that “China is ready to strengthen anti -terrorism and security cooperation with Pakistan and to keep the region peaceful, safe and stable”.
Why did China panic with the movement of Baloch?
Let us tell you that last week BLA’s Freedom Fighters hijacked the Jafar Express, with 440 passengers. BLA has claimed to kill more than 200 Pakistani army personnel. While Pakistan’s army has confessed to about 50 deaths. Jafar Express Hijack has created panic in Beijing. He is scared about the security of his China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). China feels that this billions of dollars will be blown up. China has invested millions of dollars in a 3,000 km long CPEC. It is estimated that China has invested around $ 65 billion through different projects in Balochistan, which makes a way to make cheap and sharp routes to the Middle East markets for Beijing and influence in South Asia. But now this project of China is stuck and the plan to surround India seems to fail.
The demand for Baloch rebels is not only independence from Pakistan, but they are also opposing the Chinese project. Baloch says that China is robbing their resources. Hence, Baloch rebel, has also carried out several attacks on Chinese personnel working on CPEC projects connecting Balochistan to Xinjiang province of China. Balochistan is a resource -rich area, where there is a stock of natural gas, coal, copper and other valuable minerals. Pakistan and China are robbing these minerals together and Balochs are not getting anything. So Balochs have now picked up the gun.
Baloch National Movement President Nasim Baloch has said that Baloch has suffered a lot due to this project. He said that thousands of Balochs were displaced from their homes to build Gwadar port and no arrangements were made to settle them elsewhere. So Chinese employees are under attack. Due to which, China is putting heavy pressure on Pakistan to deploy the People’s Liberation Army personnel for the safety of its citizens on Pakistan. According to reports, Pakistan is hesitant to accept China’s proposal, as it fears domestic political response at allowing Chinese security personnel on its earth. But now that the attacks of Baloch have reached dangerous levels, there is a possibility that China may deploy its soldiers in Balochistan.
