Implications of a SinoPakistan Strategic alliance for India

Ashutosh Singh

Abstract :

 The Sino–Pak relationship is a comprehensive friendship that spans across a vast canvas including political, military, nuclear and economic.  China has had a long history of civil, military and nuclear cooperation with Pakistan. India is the only country in the world to share borders with two nuclear armed neighbours with both of whom it has unresolved disputes.   The ongoing low intensity war spearheaded by Pakistan is a manifestation of the ideological dispute that has roots in the partition of 1947. China is in occupation of vast areas of India’s territory and lays claim to more.  China has settled its border disputes with 12 out of 14 countries.  Its borders with only India and Bhutan remain unresolved. On the other hand, China and Pakistan share a very close relationship. 

There is therefore a need to study the Sino–Pak strategic relationship and its implications on India’s security. The study looks at the fundamental issues straining the relations between India and the other two. It attempts to analyse the major security related components of the Sino–Pakistani strategic relationship and proposes a way ahead for India to meet the challenge.
