It is possible that in the coming days Saudi Arabia, UAE, and India military Practice too. India has advanced its foreign policy in the Gulf countries in an excellent way.

But due to Imran Khan's policy, everything got in the mud. Imran Khan's government, while cheating, an organization in parallel with Turkey, Malaysia, and Iran, parallel to the OIC of Islamic countries. Tried to stand up. This sheer should have known that Pakistan's interests are from Saudi Arabia and the UAE and not Iran, Malaysia, and Turkey. "
