So what I observed is Pakistan didn't want to escalate that conflict because of its poor economic situation, India also didn't want to escalate because it's better economic prospect in future, so question is why did that happen, who got benefit, please shade some light on geopolitical angle for this conflict.

tbh geopolitics isnt my strong point but i know there may be a show in the works on the political side of things in the near future.

Primarily defense focused stuff we can answer in the eps! Or perhaps one of the other two can

Why would it be closed? As long as Indians don't spam the thread like last time and derail every discussion.

What I feel is India Pakistan are being played in this chess game. Our think tanks, govt know that, but are not able to do things that needed to be done cause of public pressure. So this monster that our forefathers created is haunting us now. Regarding articles both of your articles were objective, well articulated.

I'm not sure if this will be relevant to the next topic, but what do you think are some high priority areas that Pakistan should focus its limited resources on following this conflict?

For example, a specific type of missile, military satellites, something navy focused, SOJ aircraft etc.

So, the question is why did that happen?

Simple answer: your shitheaded Hindutva terrorist Modi.

Of course, Pakistan didn’t want the escalation at all. That was clearly evident from the restraint shown by Pakistan even after Indian aggression on the night of 6/7 May in the wake of serious and grave Indian provocations by Modi government. After getting a bloody face in the air on 7th of May, Indians resorted to sending first drones and then BrahMos missiles (launched from both the air and ground). These naked and consistent aggressions against Pakistan must not have gone unpunished. We all Pakistanis had boiling blood to get Modi’s hot Sindoor running in his veins. Finally Pakistan started responding in a strong way.

Modi was brought to his knees only in a few hours only to start requesting capitals across the world and begging for an immediate ceasefire. One well-placed American defense person having links inside the White House then claimed that Indians were ‘frantically requesting’ for an immediate ceasefire. Pakistan agreed to that on its own terms and conditions.

The way no one in world (except Israel) showed any support to Indian narrative, it is quite evident how Modi has been defeated, disgraced, and humiliated by Pakistan. In fact, most countries snubbed Indian delegations visiting across the world to garner support for India. Even Jaishankar was snubbed by EU officials just yesterday.

I personally was disappointed by Pakistan agreeing to the ceasefire so early. Modi should have paid much more dearly for his aggression and violating Pak sovereignty.
