The Blue Gawadar

Geography is one of the important factors, which influences the development of human psychological, social and political culture of state. The most critical element of environment is the sea, which occupies almost 72% of the surface of earth. 70% of the world’s population dwells within 100 miles of a coastline. Gawadar port is a deep-sea port that lies at the southwestern coast of the Balochistan province “pakistan”. The government realized its potential of becoming a major hub port of the region, given its proximity to the Strait of Hormuz, a sea passage through which a fifth of the world’s oil transit occurs. Gawadar Port not merely benefit Pakistan but it also spreads economic activities in the region. Gawadar Port will be a turning point in international politics. Countries such as China, India, Iran and Middle Eastern States, Central Asian States, Russia, Europe, United States and other international players will also be affected. All these states have their own strategic, military, economic and political interests whether directly or indirectly. A state who rules Gawadar will command the South Asian region and a state who rules South Asia, would rule the entire world.
