The analysis of Pakistan-China relationships under the Xi Jinping regime (2013-2025) and how bilateral relationships are being transformed to be a complete strategic partnership under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has been discussed. The study examines the political, economic, and security aspects of the relationship, especially the construction and formation of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) as a BRI flagship project. It states that the relations between Pakistan and China at this time have evolved from a defence alliance to an economic alliance, characterised by institutionalised coordination and diplomatic alignment at both regional and international levels. This discrtiptive research also assesses the consequences of this alliance on South Asian regional security and the US-China competition.
