https://nationalinterest.org/blog/silk-road-rivalries/how-iran-china-and-russia-would-react-to-a-us-return-to-bagram-air-base

The article argues that a U.S. return to Bagram would be seen by Iran, China, and Russia as a direct strategic threat, not just a tactical move in Afghanistan. It suggests that such a presence would give Washington greater visibility and leverage over regional trade, security flows, and connectivity projects, especially those linked to China and Iran. In response, all three would likely resist in different ways, but their opposition would reflect shared concern about renewed U.S. influence near their borders rather than a fully unified strategy.

https://nationalinterest.org/blog/silk-road-rivalries/pakistans-strategic-dilemma-in-the-iran-war

The article argues that Pakistan faces a difficult balancing act in the Iran war, trying to avoid taking sides while maintaining ties with Iran, Gulf states, and the United States. At the same time, the conflict creates direct risks for Pakistan, including border instability, militant activity, and economic pressure, which could force Islamabad to move from cautious neutrality to more active involvement.

The article argues that India is highly exposed to instability in the Gulf, where even the risk of disruption, especially around the Strait of Hormuz, quickly raises oil prices, shipping costs, and insurance premiums. Because of this dependence, economic pressure reaches India faster than many other major economies and directly affects inflation, growth, and policy choices.
