Obama didn't even tell Pakistan about the raid for "operational security". Kurds intercepted someone entering Iraq which led to info about a courier for Osama Bin Laden.

I don't see why China doesn't step in as their benefactor since they have a common enemy in India.

I think China-Pakistan announced some deal worth 100s if millions? Within 24 hrs, didn’t waste any time.

China was the contractor for building a port. Primarily for trade with China, and primarily using Chinese engineers and workers and Chinese loan guarantees.

Pakistan's decent friends with China, and the "new Silk Road" or whatever they're calling the Eurasian trade route will include Pakistan. It's not big news here because we're the center of our universe and think we're the center of everybody else's.

The "deal" was to conduct trade with China in yuan instead of in dollars.

And it’s a big blow for trade to switch away from US dollars. I predict more will follow suite.

. By investing in Pakistan's North-South pipeline, conducting joint military exercises and hosting four conferences aimed at jump-starting negotiations in Afghanistan, Moscow is cozying up to Islamabad to forge a relationship with the Taliban. One of Moscow's goals is to support the militant organization to counter transnational extremist groups, such as the Islamic State, which threaten to spill into the Central Asian states bordering northern Afghanistan. But Moscow's outreach is also aimed at gaining a point of contact in Kabul's post-conflict government, as the Taliban are widely expected to someday join a power-sharing agreement designed to end the war.
