Involvement of other countries such as U.S. and India has weakened the positive and strong associations between Russia and Pakistan just to boost up their personal interests. However, with the passage of time it has become clear to both countries that these countries are doing nothing rather just increasing their socio-economic status and can put down the any country even if they have friendly associations with them. Thus, by realizing the facts about the both countries, Russia and Pakistan are trying their best to create the positive harmony among themselves. Furthermore, this study is highly significant for policy makers to devise the policies that are beneficial for both countries. Along with this fact, this study is also an open window for the researchers that want to work in this subject.
