Pakistan is one of the countries most affected by the threat of terrorism in the world. The frequent occurrence of terrorist events and the cross-border combination of terrorist forces and religious beliefs are often used by terrorists, which restricts Pakistan's modernization transformation. Pakistan, as China's all-weather strategic partner and an important fulcrum country for the implementation of "the Belt and Road" project, domestic instability factors affect the smooth implementation of the strategy and hinder the realization of personnel exchanges and economic connectivity in neighboring countries. "The Belt and Road" strategy is committed to serving neighboring countries, with the goal of achieving equitable global economic development. Therefore, discussing the security threats in Pakistan and analyzing their impact are of great significance for the in-depth development of China-Pakistan relations and the steady progress of "the Belt and Road" strategy.
