Your map is wrong
 
Nothing tangible then, only statements. The Gwadar-China oil pipeline will bring China much closer to the Mid-East as far as importing of oil is concerned so the Middle Eastern oil exporting nations do benefit from CPEC. Question is are they willing to step beyond words and accelerate the project or wait till China constructs and then they avail that infrastructure. Seems like they are opting for the latter option.
 
Last time during Musharraf era Saudis invested $500 million at port Qasim.
Zardari cut of their electricity and gas.
Last I heard they were interested to sell off at throw away prices.
