Pakistan did not allow the Indian plane carrying relief material to Turkey to use its airspace, due to which the plane had to take a longer route. On the one hand, Pakistan describes itself as a true friend of Turkey, but when Turkey needs immediate help, Pakistan is blocking the way for Indian planes to provide help.
