Why This Is a Master Stroke
-
Positions Pakistan as a serious defence exporter beyond South Asia
-
Breaks Western monopoly over North African security markets
-
Strengthens Pakistan’s relevance across MENA geopolitics
-
Converts military credibility into economic and energy leverage

This isn’t optics.
This is statecraft.
Official announcements will come, Insh’Allah.
Until then, understand this much: Pakistan didn’t just enter Libya.
Pakistan won the room.
