The Pakistani Defense Minister admitted that China had once shared Indian air defense intelligence with Pakistan.

Pakistani Defense Minister Khawaja Asif admitted that our country shared Indian air defense and missile intelligence.

Asif said in an interview with Arab News that it is common for friendly countries to share collected intelligence through satellites or other means, "there are also problems between China and India."

Pakistani Defense Minister Khawaja Asif revealed that during the tense period between Pakistan and India at the beginning of last month, China had shared intelligence regarding India's air defense system missile actions and flight paths. Asif stated that China shared this information because there are also problems between China and India.

Asif said in an interview with Arab News that it is common for friendly countries to share intelligence collected through satellites or other means, and "there are also problems between China and India."

"Indeed, strategically close countries do share intelligence. If we share any information we have, it is very normal," Asif said. "If we share any information that could threaten us or China, it is also normal, because there are also problems between China and India. Therefore, I think sharing intelligence collected through satellites or other means is natural," he said.

Additionally, Pakistani Defense Minister Khawaja Asif denied reports that Pakistan will receive Chinese J-35A fighter jets before 2026, calling these reports mere media speculation.
