Gravitas | Explained: Pokhara & Anti-China protests in Nepal | WION

People in Nepal fear that Pokhara could become the next Gwadar. The city's China-funded and China-built airport is not generating revenue. There are no international flights. People fear China may seize the airport over non-payment of loans.

    The problem is India. There is only one air entry to Nepal. Nepal gov asked India more air entry in order to use two international airports (Bhairawa & Pokhara), but India did not give acces therefore all airlines have to use only one air corridor mean long distance . it is not economical viable to use both airports. India does not like to see China influence in Nepal. There is nothing about safety it about India dominant.

    yes, because India don't want to see their Neighbour countries get developed. same as east India company root there in you. not giving flight route to Nepal it's jealousy. USA in past send warship to ATTACK INDIA but you are doing business buying billion worth weapons from USA and other hand attacking country who support by China. China building infrastructure road not only in Asia but in Europe Africa native America Indonesia loas Thailand many more first read it idiot first look your trade to China then come comment.

    If India had given the flight clearance there would be international flights here. Same with Gautam Budha Airport in Bhairahawa. China should definitely create a base for 99 years. At least we’d start to repay the loan.

    Same thing happens with our hydropower dams as India doesn’t buy the electricity if built by Chinese investments and all the contracts India has taken haven’t been developed in nearly half a century. They only want to grab it and not build. Even the ones they start never finishes to completion.

    And regarding hydropower, its our wish if we want to buy it or not .You have made them for your people or Indians?? So many Nepalese still live without electricity, go give them electricity first . And regarding air routes, Himalayas are a tough terrain to operate an airport, even Indian Himalayan states face such problems.

    Look up and tell me which Country is Profiting between China and Nepal. China’s Debt Trap Policy is not hidden and Secret anymore. Tell me is the CPEC between China and Pakistan completed even after a Decade. India and USA warned Sri Lanka to not build the Hambantota Port cause no Ships Traffic will divert their Normal Route. But Sri Lanka went ahead with Loans from China and now the World knows what happened to Sri Lanka. Now Maldives too is going the same direction.

    In Nepal's Pokhara, concerns loom over China's debt-trap diplomacy. Despite China's investment in the city's airport, it lacks revenue and international flights, raising fears of potential seizure due to loan defaults. This underscores the risks of China's infrastructure projects. Leaders from Taiwan and India have advised caution, urging thorough scrutiny of Chinese-funded investments to protect national interests and sovereignty. 👎👎🇨🇳🇨🇳

    You didn't told the actual reason why flights are not landing in the airport. It's because India is not giving flight route to Nepal. India is trying create economic problems in Nepal. Tell the truth not lies
