    Earlier I would have thought that the western powers and the ummah will step in and save the pakis. Pakis are immensely useful to keep India in check, have a backdoor route to china, and to have a well trained army acceptable for most of the ummah. But now, with the Russian war, them (western...

    It also depends on when the contracts were made. Usually countries/companies make long term large contracts to have stability in the prices and usually get a discount.
