After facing defeat in Operation Sindoor, Pakistan seeks deadly weapon from…, capable of…
ALP-300G: After facing defeat against India during Operation Sindoor, Pakistan is busy acquiring more weaponry from other countries. The Pakistani army was forced to retreat in front of Indian missiles, drones, and state-of-the-art defence. The biggest reason for Pakistan's defeat was its blind trust in China. Now, to correct the mistakes, Islamabad is sidelining the Dragon and acquiring weapons from Turkey. Why is Pakistan buying weapons from Turkey?
The Pak army is preparing to buy a deadly radar system, the ALP-300G from Turkey. It is capable of identifying areal threats from a long distance. As per several reports, during the Indo-Pak conflict between 8 and 10 May, Pakistan's Chinese defence system HQ-9 was completely failed, allowing Indian suicide drones and missiles to infiltrate and destroy targets.
The Pakistan Air Force is in talks with Turkish defence company ASELSAN to buy ALP-300G radar system which can be deployed in just 30 minutes. What is ALP-300G System?
The ALP-300G is a long-range air defence system that uses AESA and digital beamforming technology. It is capable of tracking ballistic, anti-radiation missiles and even stealth aircraft. With the help of its multi-channel beam structure. The system can also monitor multiple targets simultaneously.
This system is easily deployable and transportable via a standard 10-ton truck. Furthermore, it's fully interoperable with NATO's air command and control systems, maintaining functionality even in adverse weather conditions. How Cautious Should India Be?
Pak's decision to import this lethal technology from Turkey is a signal for India that next time, Pakistan will come with better preparation. In such a situation, India also needs to strengthen its military strategy so that it always remains one step ahead on every front.

Jaishankar meets European Commission chief von der Leyen in Belgium
'Pleased to call on @EU_Commission President @vonderleyen this morning. Welcomed her strong condemnation of terrorist attack in Pahalgam and solidarity in combatting terrorism,' he said in an X post. Jaishankar called on the top EU leader during his visit to Belgium and Luxembourg. Brussels, Jun 10 (PTI) External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Tuesday met European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen here and praised her 'strong condemnation' of the Pahalgam attack and solidarity in combating terrorism. The April 22 Pahalgam terror attack claimed 26 lives, following which tensions between India and Pakistan escalated. India carried out precision strikes on terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir on May 7. During the meeting, Jaishankar and von der Leyen also discussed efforts that are underway to deepen the India-EU partnership. 'Agreed on the potential benefits of stronger cooperation in trade, technology, connectivity and security for both our regions,' Jaishankar added. Von der Leyen also took to X after the meeting and said, 'The EU-India strategic partnership is getting stronger.' 'We're working on a Strategic Agenda based on growth with an ambitious FTA, tech & innovation and security & defence. I look forward to adopting it with @narendramodi at our next Summit,' she said. In June 2022, India and the 27-nation bloc resumed negotiations for a comprehensive Free Trade Agreement, an investment protection agreement and a pact on Geographical Indications after a gap of over eight years. The negotiations stalled in 2013 due to differences over the level of opening up of the markets. On February 28, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and European Commission chief agreed to seal the much-awaited free trade deal by the end of this year. Jaishankar met members of the European Parliament on Monday along with the Indian Ambassador to the EU, Belgium and Luxembourg, Saurabh Kumar.

'India projected to maintain fastest growth rate': World Bank holds FY26 growth at 6.3%; global growth rate forecast cut to 2.3%
India will remain the fastest-growing major economy in 2025–26 with a projected GDP expansion of 6.3%, the World Bank said in its latest Global Economic Prospects report, while warning that rising global trade barriers and weaker demand from key export partners are likely to dampen external sector momentum. The projection for India remains unchanged from the World Bank's April estimate but marks a downward revision from the earlier January forecast of 6.7%. The multilateral lender cited subdued industrial growth and soft export demand as key reasons for the downgrade, though construction, services and rural consumption were seen holding steady, PTI reported. 'India is projected to maintain the fastest growth rate among the world's largest economies,' the World Bank stated, noting that even with the pressures on trade, the Indian economy's fundamentals remain relatively strong. The global outlook, however, was more pessimistic. The World Bank cut its forecast for global GDP growth in 2025 to 2.3%, down from 2.7% in January. It described this as the weakest performance in 17 years outside of full-blown recessions, attributing the slowdown to policy uncertainty and fragmentation in trade relations—particularly amid heightened tariff actions by the US under President Donald Trump. The Bank also said that average global growth in the first seven years of the 2020s could be the slowest since the 1960s if current conditions persist. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed! IC Markets Start Now Undo Around 70% of global economies saw their forecasts revised down across all regions and income levels. For India, the World Bank expects GDP growth to accelerate slightly to an average of 6.6% over FY27–28, aided by a rebound in exports, especially in services, and continued momentum in construction and consumption. Last week, the Reserve Bank of India retained its GDP forecast for FY26 at 6.5%, citing macroeconomic resilience amid global headwinds. World Bank analysts added that resolving current trade disputes—potentially by halving tariff levels—could raise global growth by 0.2 percentage points over 2025 and 2026. They advised developing economies to diversify trade and pursue broader liberalization to counter the fallout from protectionist measures.
