While these exports were crucial in easing economic pressure, they have significantly limited the operational capacity of its army, which, according to some sources, could sustain intensive combat operations for <strong>only about four days<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"700\" data-end=\"1082\">Another confrontation seems to be looming in the background. In recent months, India has decisively strengthened ties with the United States, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, while solidifying its position in global supply chains \u2014 notably through projects like manufacturing iPhones for the U.S. market. Meanwhile, Pakistan leans more heavily on China, Turkey, and Iran.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1084\" data-end=\"1522\">Nothing is simple, however, in this region, as India and Iran maintain a discreet strategic partnership. India imports oil from Iran and invests in the port of Chabahar, a rival to Pakistan\u2019s Chinese-backed port of Gwadar. India is thus investing tens of billions to balance China\u2019s influence in the Gulf of Oman and to counter the flagship China-Pakistan Belt and Road project, which provides China with direct access to the Arabian Sea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pakistan has been reduced to publicly issuing nuclear threats, while its diplomacy is actively seeking conciliation with India, the world\u2019s fourth-largest power.
