With major military build-ups by both India and Pakistan for the past two weeks, after a terrorist attack - blamed on Pakistan - slaughtered 26 India citizens in Kashmir, India just got a "tap on the shoulder."
China began a large, live-fire, military (ahem) "exercise" which just so happens to be taking place in the Himalayas, near the India Border.
China backs Pakistan.
Here is video released by China's People's Liberation Army, showing parts of the "exercise" today:
Pakistan v. India
An actual shooting war between Pakistan and India would likely not bode well for Pakistan which is outnumbered, outgunned, out-tanked, out-artilleried and so on.
But the real disastrous information about Pakistan came out TODAY: Pakistan has been secretly arming UKRAINE and has so depleted its own inventory of 155mm Artillery shells, that Pakistan now has only . . . . ready for this . . . . FOUR DAYS WORTH of artillery shells if full scale war breaks out.
Four days!
The major league downside to this is that after they run out of artillery shells, Pakistan would more likely be forced into using its NUCLEAR arms.
Perhaps that is why China is making its presence known. Better to avoid a shooting war before it starts, than try to limit it once it does start.
