In the current dynamics of international politics, the New Great Game has been embedded with vast perspective from different stakeholders. CPEC under the auspices of OBOR initiative taken by China has created worrisome situation for major stakeholders of global politics with special emphasis on United States of America. CPEC, the connector for three regions that is South Asia, Central Asia and Middle East via trade route, poses serious threats to economic status quo of the United States and to its hegemony. The concept of Arc of Instability clearly supplements this concept. United States is working on the containment policy for China, like as the USSR during the Cold War. New alliances are emerging based on national interests hinging around U.S. myopic policies in these regions; Pakistan is drifting towards Russia and China, whereas India and Afghanistan are acting as U.S. stooges. To counter balance the Chinese expansionism in the South Asian region, U.S. is supporting the insurgencies in the Middle Eastern region, creating instability. The growing tension can be mitigated if joint peaceful interventions are given preference by the major powers. Mutual Trade and economic inter-dependence are the only probable approach to ensure global peace and avoid socio-political turmoil.
