초록
The primary objective of this paper is to examine the factors due to which both Pakistan and Russia have displayed an eagerness to normalise and deepen their strategic relations. Historically, Pakistan and former Soviet Union always saw each other either through the prism of the U.S. or India resulting in the absence of an independent foreign policy towards each other with little scope of strategic manoeuvring between the two. Today, the trajectories of their relations have undergone rapid changes in the backdrop of the new Cold War. Besides covering the historical background, the present study examines the predominant reasons reflecting the contemporary developments for their strategic bonhomie from an Indian perspective. The contemporary economic and strategic calculations have been highlighted in the present study. In the process it also examines how their strategic synergy may alter the existing balance of power in South Asia and international peace.
