...civilian branches of government tussle over their powers, neither appears to have clear backing from the military, whose preferences are often decisive. Still, some Pakistani media commentators suggest that the generals may be colluding with the judges to limit the power of government, already groaning under the weight of the president's sagging popularity.

Geographic proximity has always been one of the main factors in conflicts between great powers on the Eurasian landmass.
