Seems that is a likely scenario at this point. The timing is very notable here given US trade war with China, and the fact that Pakistan is an important part of BRI.
BRI refers to the Belt and Road Initiative, not BRICS. Pakistan is important to the BRI due to ports such as Gwadar being means of accessing the Indian Ocean and the Strait of Hormuz for China without passing through the Strait of Malacca.

Wait, isn’t India also an important part of BRICS?
I didn’t even think about this before. I do wonder if it was all a false flag.
