China has become a stumbling block again in the UN to pass a legislation to declare Masood Azhar as an international terrorist .  This is the third time it has happened. In my opinion, India, US and as a matter of fact any international civilized nation should not expect that China's attitude towards this issue will change in the near future.  The reason being that China has lot of investment about $46 Billion in the CPEC project alone which is saving China lot of money in the shipment of goods from Central Asia to China  They would not like to jeopardize it.  Since CPEC project  is using lot of lands of Balochistan along with Kashmir, the only way China's policy can be changed is to help Balochs to get their independence from Pakistan.  It will serve two purposes; one that Baloch will get the benefit of abundant natural resources which belong to them and not to Pakistan and secondly, it will help improve Indo-China relationship.  Once China's link with Pakistan is reduced, China will have very less interest in supporting Jihadis in Pakistan.  Therefore, the key for the international community is to help Balochs to achieve independence from Pakistan and then everything else will fall in line.

Needless to say, if the Head of a nation wants to see the country survive and flourish, some drastic measures are always in order.  It is nice to be gentle with others but being politically correct all the times is not the right attitude to protect a country from the policy consisting of bad elements.  It is a human nature to oppose any time 'change' is introduced.  It takes a while for the human beings to accept change.  Ultimately, they get used to.  What we are witnessing in this country in the way of demonstrations, destruction of public property and lots of hue and cry about Trump's policies is part of normal human brings' behavior opposing introduction of 'change'.  It happened to Modi and to the President of Argentina too.  Argentina is doing much better economically now under the new President' rule, and I am sure India will flourish more under Modi's policy too.  We are already seeing positive impact of Trump's policies - Saudi Arabia stated that they will send troops and armaments to Syria to fight against ISIS which Obama could not do for 5 years, some of the sanctuary cities  in Texas and Florida are caving in due to the threat of stopping Federal cash flow to those cities etc.  I do not know how long Soro and other leftists can continue funneling funds to these rented demonstrators, but whatever it may be, this is a temporary phase.  It will pass.
