Examining Pakistan’s Shift to Geo-Economic Strategy and Regional Connectivity

Pakistan has recently realigned its focus towards geo-economic strategies following the publication of its inaugural National Security Policy, a move reflecting a broader global shift from geopolitics to geo-economics. Geo-economics, which marries the study of economics with geopolitical considerations, takes into account how political power dynamics influence global economic interactions and the strategic role of geography in economic activities. This discipline has become increasingly relevant with the intensification of global economic integration and the complex interdependencies of international markets and trade flows. Understanding the economic impact of one nation’s policies on another is central to geo-economic analysis, which is particularly vital when assessing the implications of trade agreements and economic policies on global financial landscapes.

The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), exemplifies geo-economic principles in action. CPEC aims to provide China with a strategic route to the Middle East and Africa, bypassing contentious areas like the South China Sea and the Strait of Malacca, thereby securing energy resources and access to emerging markets. This project underscores the eastward shift of economic corridors and supports the development of a multipolar global order, with Pakistan playing a foundational role in China’s long-term vision.

In a trilateral meeting in September 2019, the foreign ministers of China, Pakistan, and Afghanistan emphasized the importance of enhancing regional connectivity, including the possible extension of CPEC to Afghanistan. However, the success of such expansions hinges on Afghanistan’s stability, which remains precarious under the current government. The prospect of extending commercial ties between Afghanistan and Pakistan, with China’s backing, could be promising, provided Afghanistan can ensure a secure environment conducive to international investment.

Central Asia, bordered by influential nations like China, Russia, and Iran, is strategically positioned at the heart of Eurasia, offering significant geopolitical and economic potential due to its accessibility to diverse trade partners. The recently endorsed Pakistan-Afghanistan-Uzbekistan railway project enhances Pakistan’s regional links, paving the way for increased trade and integration with Central Asia, and providing Uzbekistan with access to Pakistani ports in Gwadar and Karachi. Moreover, Pakistan aims to transcend mere trade expansion; initiatives like CASA 1000, an electrical transmission project connecting Central and South Asia, aim to facilitate energy distribution and bolster regional economic growth.

Despite the potential benefits, instability in Afghanistan remains a critical challenge to Pakistan’s geo-economic strategy, as the nation serves as a vital link to Central Asia. Persistent unrest could lead to further conflicts, threatening not only regional stability but also the progress of significant projects like the TAPI pipeline and CASA 1000. Pakistan stands at a crossroads, where its geo-economic policy has the potential to attract global attention if it can navigate the complexities of regional dynamics and security challenges.
