Wrong. Pakistan needs a stable neighbor, especially with Afghanistan on one side and its own internal insurgencies on the other. For Islamabad, Iran’s continued existence is crucial, even though their relationship is anything but warm. If a pro-India faction were to take power in Tehran, Pakistan would find itself in a strategic bind much like Germany’s in 1914 - caught between hostile fronts.
