Which is the greater military power: #PRC with 60,000 troops massed on India’s border(for ~2 years) or #RF with 100,000 troops massed on Ukraine border(for ~ 2 months)?
2/rus #Russian massing of troops around Ukraine is not just a message to #USA and #Europe, but also to #China and #India, not to write off its Military power & ability to use it; even though Russia’s economic power is now much less than that of USA, EU, China, India.🧐🤔
3/rus The #Russian’s have learned from the #PRC aggression against India in 2020, which rapidly lost credibility after Galwan. They have done everything to ensure that the threat of invasion is credible enough to achieve their coercive objectives without fighting.

Oil and natural gas reserves is are increasingly becoming a target by #terrorists/ #insurgencies because it accounts for 6.5% of the global GDP. A good example is #Alshabaab attacks in Northern #Mozambique on the @TotalEnergies $20B offshore LNG facility that is the largest
Foreign investment project in #Africa. Cabo Delgado is also home to vast swaths of natural resource wealth.It also harbours the largest known graphite deposits & nearly half of the world's rubies lie under its soil.
#UnmaskingTerrorism
That thus makes #CaboDelgado a hotspot for real and perceived grievances, that are often exploited by #terrorists & proxy war mongers to sow unrest to explore these resources in a manner that won't benefit the locals.

Sadly, @MichaelKugelman, you are wrong again. #Pakistan followed #US policy in the 80s - defending #Afghanistan and defeating #Communism. We got sanctions as a #ThankYou.
#Pakistan has the most to lose with an unstable #Afghanistan. We have always worked for #Afghan peace, as a partner with the #US, #China, & #Russia.
But you fail to point out #Afghanistan’s support of #terrorism and #insurgencies in #Pakistan through #PTM, #TTP & #Baluch insurgents like #BLA.

After all the tough talk, @realDonaldTrump reimburses #Pakistan for supporting #US troops in #Afghanistan. This is a Coalition Support Fund (#CSF) payment.

Those who have celebrated the #US's tough stand on #Pakistan, including #SecState #Tillerson's statement #terrorists could on day decide that #Kabul isn't as beneficial as #Islamabad, Should clearly understand a few things...
1) #Pakistan is not a cowardly cub unable to defend itself. We are not #Iraq, #Afghanistan or #Syria, where you destroyed or dismantled their armed forces, while sponsoring #Fake #Insurgencies in #Balochistan.
