How China is ‘Killing’ Pakistan Economically? | Debt, Oil & OPEC Angle Explained | StudyIQ IAS

Pakistan is facing its worst economic nightmare in 2026. In this deep-dive, Ankit Agrawal from StudyIQ IAS explains how China's debt strategy and a brutal OPEC oil shock are pushing the country toward a sovereign default.

The relationship between Beijing and Islamabad is often called "higher than the mountains," but the financial reality tells a different story. With CPEC Phase II shifting from infrastructure to industrial control, Pakistan finds itself trapped between massive Chinese debt repayments and a global oil market manipulated by OPEC+ production cuts. In March 2026 alone, petrol prices in Pakistan surged by Rs 55 per liter, sparking nationwide unrest.
