Strong defense, weak economy? Pakistan's challenge compared to India's

Pakistan’s defense capabilities remain strong, but long-term national strength depends on more than security alone.

This video takes a closer look at how economic growth, exports, foreign exchange reserves, poverty levels, and policy stability shape national resilience and why Pakistan continues to lag behind India on key economic indicators despite maintaining strategic parity in defense.

Rather than framing this as a rivalry, the discussion focuses on why economic stability, self-reliance, and sustained growth are now essential for Pakistan’s future security and sovereignty.

This is a data-driven look at why economic strength matters just as much as military preparedness in securing Pakistan’s future.
