The nation has witnessed a miracle named Marka-E-Haq. It is the miracle of an unexpectedly fortified Pakistan, strategically raised, unified nationwide and repositioned worldwide.

In four days in May, Pakistan surpassed and overcame an enemy an larger order of magnitude in economics, population and conventional weapons. In doing so, Pakistan sent a superpower manque that recovered to the ranks of the average powers and left the terrorism star shirt that the world has put it during most of the 21st century.

“Pakistan has been maintained for a long time at the end of international skepticism,” writes Murtaza Solangi and Ahmed al-Arabi in a new book.

“How many soldiers we buried or how many children we cry makes no difference. It doesn’t matter how often we warn about the Indian adventurer or submit files to the United Nations, most of the time, we judge guilty before we can prove our innocence.”

Pakistan’s victory was a manifestation of national power so far without expressing. The triumph is even more amazing because it occurred within an environment of disappointment with the Pakistani and invective state open towards the armed forces of Pakistan, particularly by a political party that has raised the spectrum of the country’s breakdown in 1971 and attacked all state institutions and their leaders.

However, when he said, Pakistan’s civil and military leadership joined, particularly Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Coas Caas Also Munir, and the three armed forces joined in an unprecedented battlefield integration. This victorious harmony has claimed Pakistan’s strategic relationship with China and surprised the world.

Here is the pile of ashes of Hindutva’s arrogance. In the upper part are the carbonized remains of the Indian air defense. Under the ashes of Indian ambitions for: permanent membership of the UN Security Council, regional hegemony, China’s counter-wealth, being “net security supplier” in the Indo-Pacific, undoing Pakistan and using Israeli playbook to coercir the Kashmiríes in Iiojk.

If imposed punitive tariffs and equally punitive rhetoric in India by the Trump administration are a guide, the United States has discovered the pile of ashes.

A long range of diplomatic debacles has followed Hindutva’s military defeat. In direct contradiction with the protests of Prime Minister Modi, President Trump has taken the credit three dozen times by the high fire in the Indo-Pak war. The US president has added an insult to the injuries through the use of “media”, “Kashmir” and rejecting India and Pakistan, all notions in the inflated self -image of India to transcend southern Asia. The postwar diplomatic mission of India failed, and so made their efforts to prosecute and damage Pakistan’s interests in Fatf, IMF, World Bank, SCO and BRICS.

The contours of this rare positive strategic moment for Pakistan have appeared as a result of the delegation of the Prime Minister sent in June to the UN, Washington, the United Kingdom and the European Union. The strengths of the delegation were triple.

First was the victory itself, but the second was that we did not seek any military aid or budgetary support of our hosts. The third was, and it is, that Pakistan seeks peace while India embarks apparently into a perpetual war.

What we saw, listen and feel: Afghanistan is fading from public memory in Washington; So is the attached antagonism against Pakistan. Consequently, Capitol Hill was surprisingly positive and receptive to our concerns. The criticism of Pakistan were silenced. A clear division is seen between the US establishment, which is still pro-India, and the White House, which is dramatically less. Pakistan is also benefiting from the retirement of the United Nations India.

Islamic countries are rediscovering Pakistan’s strengths. There is a generalized empathy with Pakistan at the UN and the EU in the Treaty of the Indo waters. The EU is interested in saving the order based on rules. There is international respect and curiosity about Pak-China’s defense cooperation. And finally, but not least, the repeated praise of President Trump for Pakistani leadership and lunch organization for the field marshal has brought a tremendous positivity for Pakistan in Washington.

However, the question is vital: how long will this positivity last? Months, weeks? More reasons for Pakistan to venture boldly in the international arena. The presidency of the UNSC of Pakistan, for a month, has concluded. Pakistan must continue with vigorous conversations worldwide for the restoration of the IWT, respect for international treaties and nuclear restriction. Unfortunately, the UN is paralyzed by its inability to stop the genocide in Gaza. Pakistan has to enter other sands to pursue their interests.

A clear message to India must leave, as stated by Emile Simpson: “If you want stability in the world, you must have clear strategic limits that seek to compartmentalize conflicts, and not add them. If you do not fit into your conflicts with clear, chronological, conceptual, geographical and legal strategic limits, then experience a proliferation of violence.”

Therefore, the first task before Pakistan is to prepare for the next war filling the gaps in our defense. The recent increase in the defense budget is welcome, but the strengthening of our defenses will also require an unbridled analysis of the tooth -to -tail relationship, followed by ruthless optimization of resources.

A diplomatic campaign must begin by assigning resources to become the main defendant of the lowest water rights in the world. It is time to aggressively defend a Saarc successor with China as a member and without India. The Prime Minister must continue the medium -level diplomatic initiative by sending smaller delegations to discuss regularly with the European Commission and the EU Parliament.

A scope is justified for the countries of North America, Europe, BRICS and El Quad. Let’s not take friends or enemies as permanent and take advantage of Pakistan’s new prominence to reach friends, particularly in the Gulf. Start a dialogue with environmental and water organizations worldwide.

Let’s not forget the law. Based on the opinion of the Hague Court, Pakistan must obtain an opinion on the IWT of India “in suspense” of a panel of eminent international lawyers and send lawyers capable of attending select conferences of international law to create a positive opinion climate about the IWT. An international multiplatform information campaign is crucial and is immediately necessary to the Indian brand as a revisionist and reckless power with the intention of breaking international law in Kashmir, IWT and nuclear restriction.

The danger is clear and present. We have a high fire; We have no peace. Hindutva’s anti-mulum and anti-paw hate continues to shine. Prime Minister Modi and his ministers continue to priming Pakistan with “Eating bread, otherwise my bullet is there”; Repeat that the high fire is a “pause” and that there was no doubt to return to the IWT.

Hindutva cannot endure misfortune and will attack with anger.

After the Monsoon Reedes in a Few Weeks, PM Modi Will Have the First Opportunity to Stop Waters of The Chenab and Jhelum Rivers, which in turn Will Trigger The Policy of Pakistan’s National Security Commit Indus Waters Treaty, and The Usurpation of the Rights of Lower Riparian Will Be Considers An Act of War and replied with Full Force Across The Complete Spectrum of National Power. “

It is rare for nations to give them an opportunity for a strategic restart. After a quarter of the century of internal struggle and international suspicion, Maark-E-HAQ has provided Pakistan for a precious circumstance.

Shakespeare wrote in “Julius César”: “There is a tide in the affairs of men /who, taken in the flood, leads to fortune; /In such a complete sea we are now afloat; /And we must take the current when it serves, /or lose our companies.”

It is time for the State to draw the correct, national and global lessons, of the war and do not fall prey to arrogance or complacency. We must take advantage of this strategic moment.
