Diplomatic shows aside, Pakistan tilt towards Iran, rather than the Arabs and the US, was visible throughout this 2026 War in the Middle East.

Keeping fingers crossed for the US-Iran talks in Islamabad this weekend. Gratitude for Austria's silent help....

Has the US lost this war to Iran in the diplomatic arena?

Passover and Easter wishes for all.

Pakistan's support for Iran stems from fears as well as the options it opens for the Pakistani port of Gawadar.

Pakistan believes a pro-Iranian tilt rather than an alliance with the US and Arabs serves it's interests better.

The UAE and Bahrain have already joined the the war against Iran without major declarations.

After Asia and the US, it is Europe that is bearing the major economic brunt of the Iran War 2026.

Europe and the US have two different opinions and positions on the Iran War 2026.
The Israelis, Arabs and the Iranians all know that.

The chief European concern is still Ukraine rather than the situation in the Middle East.

Pakistan's pro-Iranian bias runs against the Saudi interests in these difficult times. Pakistan should know that Saudi Arabia has been its best friend in the region.
