Great piece! The way you tie these various events together is very compelling. Between the signing of the mutual defense agreement in 2025 and the mediator role being played now, Pakistan has made itself a player in a somewhat stealthy way. I honestly didn't think we would be hearing and writing this much about Pakistan when the bombs started dropping on February 28th.

Thank you, appreciate that.
“Stealthy” is a good way to put it. Pakistan didn’t force itself into the frame—it made itself useful at the right moment.
What’s interesting now is what follows from that. Interesting times.
