Pakistan's military expands Gulf role without parliamentary oversight
Original: As Munir's military takes on Gulf role, Pakistan's parliament is not involved
Pakistan's army, led by Field Marshal Asim Munir, is taking on an expanded security role in the Gulf, with no involvement from the country's parliament, according to a Reuters report. The arrangement raises questions about civilian oversight of the military's growing foreign commitments. Observers are watching what the deployment means for Pakistan's ties with Gulf states and the balance of power at home.
Why now: Fresh reporting on Pakistan's military expanding its role in the Gulf without parliamentary approval has drawn attention to civilian control of the armed forces.
