Do you see CPEC and cooperation with China more generally as helpful to this problem?

CPEC is grand strategy, while this intelligence game is just low-level tactics. The real problems in Pakistan are much bigger than these BLA militants (e.g. we've got the IMF running our central bank.) CPEC infrastructure's long-term benefit (for Pakistan) is to get the hell out of the Western financial orbit, once and for all. This is why US/India wants CPEC to fail, they are seeing the threat 20-30 years down the line.

India didnt read it on that level. To them CPEC is part of an encirclement strategy which is why the desperate attempt for the Chabatar port in Iran to link the long way into Afghan.

Might be a little out of topic here
Recently I found a military simulation scenario between China and India (in Chinese). The scenario's background is that the removal of Article 370 somehow leads to China-India conflict and subsequently India navy attempts to block Malacca strait. Note that this scenario was written last December, so it did not include Ladakh's contention. What do you think?

While I appreciate the detail and good narrative, I think that this scenario might be too favorable to China. FYI, China only lost 3 fighters here, while virtually the entire Indian Navy was obliterated, that's more crushing than Battle of Tsushima. Also somehow Indian Air Force has Su-57 but no Rafale.

P.S. DeepL works better than Google translate IMHO.
