Here speeds the driving troika

Military transport aircraft from China and Turkey have become frequent visitors to Pakistan — The Jerusalem Post

Here comes the driving troika

In recent days, the intensity of flights by Chinese and Turkish military transport aircraft to Pakistan has significantly increased.

It is reported that Chinese aircraft, including the Y-20, as well as Turkish ones, such as the A400M Atlas and C-130 Hercules, have been landing at Pakistani airbases, including Nur Khan (near Rawalpindi), Masroor (in Karachi), and Murid.

It is assumed that they were transporting military equipment, including drones, ammunition, and other defense systems. This is being viewed as part of a larger logistical operation rather than a routine exchange.

The publication writes that against the backdrop of these events, a new "strategic troika" is emerging, which includes Turkey, Pakistan, and China. Although China is not a party to the Mecca Agreement, its role in this triangle is considered key.
