Brief:\u00a0<\/b><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

The China\u2013Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is the flagship project of China\u2019s Belt and Road Initiative. Pakistan is therefore taken as a key strategic partner by China. Though soaring assertions have been drawn about the economic potential of CPEC, Pakistan\u2019s economy is currently getting calamitous. The authors analyze the consequences of Pakistan\u2019s economic sustainability, with reference to the Pakistan Armed Forces (PMA)\u2019s involvement and its consequences for China. The article elucidates that this involvement has significant benefits with many repercussions for China, particularly in the security and political phases of its interests and economic stability. Since the inauguration of CPEC, Pakistan\u2019s economic graphs with the debt of USD $111 billion, is continuously stirring truncated. The authors are of the view that Pakistan\u2019s economy must stimulate enough growth for it to achieve its substantial loan reimbursements. A persistent dearth of sufficient growth in the Pakistani economy, economic pundits have seen, will lead to Chinese banks running the risk of \u2018bearing the CPEC\u2019s costs.\u2019 The article further implies that when viewing Sino-Pakistani relations with the economic lens, the PMA\u2019s supremacy in Pakistan is not always an advantage for China. The military\u2019s political predominance brings difficulties for economic development in Pakistan. For progression to take place, Islamabad requires, amid other things, to decrease its debt levels significantly. Nevertheless, this can never be achieved when the military is permitted to continue its own requirement and asserts a substantial portion of the country\u2019s limited budget. More profoundly, Pakistan\u2019s economic glitches are imbedded in the policies shaped and promoted by the PMA as a security-oriented state priority, and never having been the economy. Keys to growth, such as human capital investments, are mainly being deserted in a Pakistan dominated by the PMA and its security agenda.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
