Pakistan’s resuming trade ties with India Reason for Pakistan’s resumption of trade with India Pakistan’s double U-turn on resuming trade with India highlights the internal differences within Ministries, between business and political communities, and the emphasis on politics over economy and trade.

Pakistanis behind ‘Chinese’ info war on border stand-off Context Several of the Chinese accounts that show up on social media and spread false information about the border clash with India have been traced to Pakistan. Many of the Pakistani accounts posed as China-based, in what is believed to be a coordinated disinformation campaign aimed at India.
