Despite all the internal and external conspiracies, lobbying, propaganda and confrontational efforts, Pakistan seems to be flying in almost every sphere during the year 2024 and perhaps this is the result that not only a record number of foreign heads of state and delegations have visited Pakistan in the last few months, but recently the World Bank, IMF and many other international institutions have declared Pakistan as a fast-moving country towards political and economic stability.
The participation of seven foreign ministers and other top officials, including the prime ministers of Russia and China, in the Shanghai Cooperation Conference, held in Islamabad on October 15 and 16, has proved many analyses and propaganda wrong, wiping out the aspirations of many anti-state quarters regarding Pakistan’s importance and foreign relations. The Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar’s “positive entry and remarks” filled the air, while the special meetings of the Prime Ministers of China and Russia, among others, with Army Chief General Syed Asim Munir, exposed the “elements” who kept misleading the people by dreaming of a coup within the Pakistan Army.
On the other hand, the coordination and harmony between the leaders of Pakistan’s mainstream political parties has developed and that too does not augur well for the forces of mischief and extremism, especially for the political party responsible for the events of May 9. Despite all the lobbying with a “popular leader” imprisoned from the top, the “treatment” of his former in-laws, namely England, on the issue of the chancellorship of Oxford University, also became a major cause of depression because the former Prime Minister’s name as a candidate is also not included in the released list. Ironically, his party is facing the worst kind of differences on some issues and the central leaders are now openly accusing each other on the mainstream media. The “front” of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government also does not seem to be as active as before and Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur has apologized for further “sacrifice” by saying in the political committee that the “contract” for the release of the founding chairman has not been taken by his government and party alone.
The sum of all this is that the grip of the state and its serious politicians on all issues has become stronger. While the forces of evil and temptation are not only weakening day by day. They will soon be attacking each other.
