Pakistan is desperate for friendship with Russia

Pakistan has been desperate for friendship with Russia for the last few years. It started during the government of Imran Khan. Imran Khan had specifically chosen the same day for his visit to Russia, when Putin had invaded Ukraine. His visit to Russia took place on 21 February 2022 and the very next day the Russian army invaded Ukraine. After this, Shahbaz has also met Putin on several occasions and has also invited him to visit Pakistan.
