The "world" thinks Pakistan is back in the game.

Reality? It’s being used—and then dumped.

At the SCO Defence Ministers’ meet, India exposed Pakistan’s terror nexus and challenged and embarassed China to its face.

China was giving loan to Pakistan in a hope to get their assets once it defaults on loans.

Asim Munir cheated with China as he is all set to sell Pakistan's physical assets on WLF fund.

Behind the scenes, NATO is preparing to move on from Pakistan too.

Here’s how Pakistan is being cornered by both blocs it once called ‘friends’:

Let’s talk NATO.
Right now, the West is "tolerating" and "peting" Pakistan.

Why?

It serves as a temporary logistics hub—a staging ground for supplies into Central Asia and fallback channels for NATO’s engagements in:
The Russia-Ukraine war
The Iran-Israel flashpoint

But once those supply lines stabilize elsewhere (via Caucasus or Gulf), Pakistan becomes redundant again.

Pakistan is being discarded. Not because it betrayed NATO—but because it failed to deliver.

For decades, the West propped up Pakistan—not out of friendship, but to use it as a pressure point against India’s rise. Today, Pakistan is broke, exposed, and diplomatically irrelevant. The West has moved on.

China too is quietly distancing itself—after India embarrassed both at the SCO summit.

How Pakistan failed its handlers—and why it’s now being dumped by both the West and China:

NATO’s long game was to use Pakistan to contain India—not save it.
Since 1947, the West armed Pakistan, ignored its terror networks, and poured billions into its military—not out of love, but to strategically counterbalance India in South Asia.

Pakistan was a cheap lever to prevent India from becoming a dominant non-aligned power. But after decades of funding jihadis, blocking trade, and sparking Kargil and terror attacks—Pakistan still couldn’t stop India’s rise.

That failure has made Pakistan dispensable.

The West didn’t misunderstand Pakistan—they enabled it.
From Reagan to Obama, the US looked away as Pakistan built nuclear weapons illegally, harbored terrorists, and ran jihadi camps.

Why? Because chaos in the region kept India focused inward.

But now, the strategy has failed.

India is a $4.19 trillion economy, a space power, a G20 heavyweight.
Pakistan is bankrupt, begging, and globally mocked. NATO can no longer justify Pakistan’s cost. Its use as a strategic “India distractor” has collapsed. So has Western patience.

NATO still uses Pakistan—barely—as a logistics backup for Central Asia and Iran-Israel surveillance.

But this is tactical, not strategic. Pakistan’s real role—as a long-term counterweight to India—is dead. The US and Europe are now cozying up to India as a democratic bulwark against China.

Pakistan is no longer the West’s “frontline ally”—it’s a forgotten pit stop.

Once NATO stabilizes alternate routes through the Gulf, Caucasus, or Central Asia, Pakistan will be dropped, not punished. Just deleted.

Meanwhile, China’s patience with Pakistan is wearing thin.
At the SCO Defence Ministers’ meeting in Qingdao, India did something unthinkable: refused to sign the final declaration—because China had erased any mention of the April 22 terror attack in Kashmir by Pakistani-backed militants.

This public defiance embarrassed China on its own stage.

Ajit Doval later warned of “proxy destabilizers”—a thinly veiled shot at both Pakistan and Beijing.

For China, Pakistan is now less “strategic partner” and more “diplomatic baggage.”

CPEC—the so-called ‘flagship’ of China’s Belt and Road—is bleeding credibility.

Chinese engineers get attacked in Balochistan. CPEC projects are stalled. Pakistan’s military can’t guarantee basic security.

China wanted a loyal client state. What it got is an unstable, expensive, globally isolated embarrassment.

India’s bold move at SCO proved that Beijing can no longer protect Pakistan without global pushback.

And if India keeps escalating diplomatically, China may start sidelining Islamabad—quietly but surely.

India’s walkout from the SCO was the loudest silence China and Pakistan have ever heard.

For the first time, India said: “We will not rubber-stamp platforms that protect state-sponsored terrorism.”

This wasn’t just a diplomatic protest—it was a policy shift.

India is now willing to challenge China in multilateral forums and break consensus if national interest demands it.

That signals to the world: India won’t tolerate Pakistan’s terror diplomacy—nor China’s protection of it.

Pakistan’s dream of playing both camps—West and East—is over.
NATO used it to delay India. China used it to pressure India.

But India’s economy surged, global standing grew, and security doctrine hardened.

Pakistan, meanwhile, is bankrupt, isolated, and branded as a terror exporter.

Neither NATO nor China wants to bet on a failing horse.
Pakistan is being dumped—not because it was a threat.
But because it’s no longer useful.

India’s rise is breaking the old balance of power in Asia.

West wants India to counter China.

China fears India’s influence in IOR, BRICS, and SCO.

Russia is leaning closer to India post-Ukraine.
In this new alignment, Pakistan has no place. It is too weak to be an ally, too toxic to be a partner, and too chaotic to be a neutral state.

India, by contrast, is now shaping regional coalitions—not just attending them.

China's other anger : China wanted to get Pakistan's physical assets in return once Pakistan starts defaulting on loans.

Before China could do that, Pakistan sold itself to America through WLF fund. and Asim Munir played a big role there.

Now China's business in Iran also got damaged. So it is not long when China will start dumping Pakistan.

Final word: Pakistan wasn’t betrayed by its allies—it betrayed their expectations.

It was created, fed, and funded to hold India back. But India surged forward anyway.

Now, with no leverage left, no economy to offer, and no narrative that works, Pakistan is being strategically sidelined.

The SCO summit was more than a diplomatic incident. It was a message—from India to the world:
