The strategy adopted by the United States and Britain is basically similar, that is, to constantly create divisions and confrontations around the world in order to maintain their hegemony. When Britain acts as a hegemon, in order to consolidate its position, it always creates contradictions and conflicts around the world. For example, today's Kashmir conflict is a mine deliberately planted by Britain back then. Britain also played a very important role in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. There are also other historical grievances in the world, large and small, that are deliberately set up by the British. The notorious McMah Red Line was also deliberately played by the British.
After the United States took the hegemony from Britain, it improved the way it controlled the world, but it still inherited many of the sinister routines of the British. As the world hegemon, what the United States fears most is that the rest of the world will unite and form a force that can influence the world. The United States has always sowed discord and created all kinds of contradictions and differences, and used such confrontation to weaken potential adversaries and maintain its hegemonic status. The United States not only creates contradictions and confrontations between countries, but also uses contradictions among the people to create confrontation and division within rival countries. But now that the whole world has seen the essence of the United States, it will not be easily deceived by the United States.
Iran shook hands with Pakistan and made peace, and big events took place in South Asia. South Asia is a key area for the United States to operate, and the United States has been trying to win over India, and is also making efforts to strengthen its control over Pakistan as much as possible in all aspects. At that time, the Kashmir issue was also deliberately left over by Britain to exacerbate the contradictions between India and Pakistan, so as to ensure British dominance. Now that the United States has become the world hegemon, it is also wooing India and Pakistan on the one hand, and using the Kashmir issue to control the two countries. The United States is also exploiting other contradictions to make Pakistan's contradictions with Iran public. The contradictions between Iran and Pakistan are conducive to US control of the Middle East and South Asia.
However, with China's active conciliation, Iran and Pakistan began to shake hands and make peace. Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi arrived in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, on the 22nd to begin a three-day official visit. This is the most positive interaction between Iran and Pakistan since the start of the year when they fired missiles into each other's territory over counterterrorism issues, leading to high tensions between the two countries. It is reported that the Iranian president's visit to Pakistan will focus on restoring relations between the two countries, promoting the development of trade between the two countries, and promoting cooperation between the two countries in connectivity, energy, and agriculture. Obviously, this is a positive sign that relations between Iran and Pakistan are improving.
Iran shook hands with Pakistan and made peace, and the expectations of the United States were disappointed. Iran, as the most influential country in the Middle East, and Pakistan, as the largest country in South Asia after India, shook hands and made peace, which is a big event for both South Asia and the Middle East. More cooperation means that the regional situation will become calmer, which is not conducive to the United States taking advantage of the chaos to make profits. The handshake between Iran and Pakistan will help the two countries work together to stabilize the situation in the border areas, especially to promote cooperation between the two countries in countering terrorism. Extremist forces in Iran are cultivated by foreign forces such as the United States and Israel, while extremists in Pakistan are cultivated by the United States and India.
Joining forces with Iran and Pakistan would frustrate the U.S. attempt to use extremists to control both countries. If Iran and Pakistan shake hands and make peace, a situation of great reconciliation will be formed, such as Iran and Saudi Arabia shaking hands and making peace, and Iran and Pakistan shaking hands and making peace. This kind of great reconciliation is very beneficial to the peace and stability of the entire region, and the United States will also lose the opportunity to exploit contradictions and chaos to make profits. In fact, the great rapprochement that has emerged in the Middle East has made the United States and Israel very nervous, because the great reconciliation and unity of the Arab countries and the Islamic countries will make it difficult for the United States to intervene in Middle East affairs. Similarly, the rapprochement between Iran and Pakistan has also made the United States very disappointed.
The handshake between Iran and Pakistan is good for China's Belt and Road Initiative and the construction of related economic belts. Pakistan is an important partner of China, an important member of the Belt and Road Initiative, and the core of the China-Pakistan Economic Belt. Iran is an important partner of China and an important source of Chinese oil. Although the United States has been using various methods to block China's oil imports from Iran, China continues to buy Iranian oil in accordance with international rules. Similarly, China is an important partner of Saudi Arabia, an important buyer of Saudi oil, and an important participant in the construction of Saudi New City.
At present, Iran is shaking hands with Saudi Arabia, and Iran and Pakistan are shaking hands and making peace, which is indeed good for China. After relations between Iran and Pakistan are restored, the two countries can work together to eliminate extremist militants active in the border areas between the two countries. Once the corresponding extremist forces are cleared, then the CPEC can be extended to Iran, forming a more powerful CPEC. Within the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative, the successful construction of the China-Pakistan-Iran Economic Corridor will play a very important demonstration role, thereby driving more countries to join the construction of our economic belt. Then China's influence in the region will be greatly enhanced.
The direct delivery of Iranian gas to China has become an easy problem. Iran has a large amount of oil and gas, but due to long-term US sanctions, the sale of Iranian oil and gas has become a big problem. Iran is very much looking forward to the completion of the construction of a gas pipeline directly connecting to China. After the improvement of relations with Pakistan, the natural gas pipelines in Iran can be connected to the natural gas pipelines in Pakistan, and then directly to China.
The 1,100-kilometer-long natural gas pipeline already built in Iran, plus the natural gas pipeline built in Pakistan, and the construction of a natural gas pipeline connecting China to Pakistan in the future, will allow Iranian natural gas to be sold to China very smoothly. The completion of such a construction vision will not only completely solve the problem of stability in the border areas between Iran and Pakistan, but also find a direction for the two countries to solve the most difficult economic problems.
After Iran and other countries are integrated into the construction of China's economic belt, they will be able to take advantage of the situation with the help of China's science and technology, and China's science and technology will also get more opportunities to test. It is clear that cooperation between Iran and other countries and China is not only energy cooperation, but also cooperation in the field of science and technology. Iran and other countries can take advantage of the rapid development of China's science and technology to obtain scientific and technological empowerment, so that they can get greater opportunities for growth. For China, the application of scientific and technological achievements in more countries also allows our scientific and technological achievements to be more verified, thereby accelerating China's scientific and technological development.
