Unconstitutional government destruction of the state
Faisal Muhammad an international mediator and global affairs expert based in the European Unionargues that any political set-up lacking genuine public mandate remains structurally weak and strategically unreliable. Such an arrangement he notes cannot sustainably safeguard the long-term interests of external powers in Pakistan or the wider region. Recent geopolitical signals including President Putin’s visit to India and the depth of Moscow–New Delhi agreements serve as a clear indicator that global alignments are evolving beyond fragile partnerships. Attempts to consolidate domestic power through selective international endorsements may offer short-term leverage but they risk deepening internal fractures and eroding institutional legitimacy.
Domestic Repression Global Repercussions
According to Faisal Muhammed the use of foreign political approval as justification for controversial constitutional changes has intensified public alienation and fueled anti-American sentiment within Pakistan. Amendments perceived as coercive have narrowed civic space weakened democratic norms and amplified distrust toward external actors seen as enabling such measures. He maintains that a principled approach grounded in popular sovereignty inclusive politics and confidence-building with key national stakeholders could have elevated global standing and strengthened peace-oriented diplomacy. Instead growing domestic resistance has constrained Pakistan’s ability to act decisively on major international initiatives despite high external expectations.
The Strategic Pivot and the Human Rights Imperative
Faisal Muhammed believes that emerging realities are pushing Washington toward a recalibrated strategy increasingly aligned with Moscow on Ukraine and more reliant on New Delhi to counterbalance China’s regional rise. In this shifting landscape Pakistan risks marginalization unless it restores internal credibility. He emphasizes that respect for human rights freedom of expression an independent press unhindered political activity and the release of political prisoners are no longer moral options but strategic necessities. Failure to correct course he warns may invite serious political economic and diplomatic consequences while reform and reconciliation remain Pakistan’s strongest pathway back to relevance and stability.
