[00:20:51] tv speaks to the [00:20:52] world, [00:21:02] pakistan has been working with China, it's also been working with Saudi [00:21:06] Arabia and other countries. we still [00:21:08] have naval officer involved [00:21:12] in such activities, we can say we have a decreased scale of [00:21:16] direct confrontation rather than decent [00:21:20] seasfire in lebanon, the stature of China on [00:21:24] the international and global spire is has [00:21:27] become more prominent.

We [00:21:47] responsible, mature. nuclear [00:21:50] country with very profession and [00:21:53] b. [00:22:03] Pakistan has done human work, it's been [00:22:06] absolutely remarkable what Pakistan, what [00:22:10] Islamabad has been able to bring about. Well, I think the [00:22:14] countries that are mediating have to keep plugging away and trying to find a [00:22:17] modus, solution, I think... "the first thing that has to [00:22:21] happen is there has to be agreement on the straight of hormos [00:22:25] because that was the cause of this latest war. most [00:22:29] important part is going to be dialogue, [00:22:31] and I think the Pakistan back door diplomacy, Qatar [00:22:35] also, is essential. India is not only [00:22:38] destabilizing the region, India has, I think it's look at [00:22:42] this ambition, it it was involling terrorist acts in Canada, the [00:22:45] persecution of minorities in India has been very, very..." [00:22:50] long problem, very systemic problem, [00:22:53] systematic persecution the Muslims there, not only the [00:22:57] Muslims, but also the Christians, on forces, [00:23:00] our police and devies and scouts rangers, they are [00:23:04] doing the very [00:23:05] best, [00:23:22] Afghanistan remains a central hub in the global truck [00:23:25] trade.

Despite a temporary drop after the [00:23:39] 2022 ban, cultivation rose again by [00:23:43] 19% in 2024. Trafficking networks [00:23:47] stayed active. Average opium prices of [00:23:50] $750 per kilogram reflect the continued [00:23:54] demand and functioning smuggling routes. According to the world [00:23:57] drug report 2025, total global opium [00:24:01] production in 2024 reached [00:24:03] 2,140 tons.

These... is highlight that despite bans and [00:24:22] crackdowns, the global opium trade remains deeply [00:24:26] entrenched with regional networks adapting and [00:24:29] expanding. moreover, an cartels are shifting from [00:24:33] plast-based drugs to synthetics like crystal met, which [00:24:37] are cheaper to produce and easier to hide and harder to [00:24:41] detect, showing that the threat is moving from fields to [00:24:45] laboratories spreading globally, but Pakistan is [00:24:48] actively countering this threat under the national [00:24:52] anti-narcotics policy 2019 and backed by the laws like [00:24:56] the control of narcotics substancess at [00:24:58] 1997, pakistan's anti-narcotics force [00:25:02] ANF conducts extensive operations in [00:25:05] Balochistan, KP and Syn using drones, [00:25:09] satellite imagery and modern agricultural methods, [00:25:12] Pakistan eradicates puppy crops even in remote [00:25:16] areas.

[00:25:20] hundreds of hectares of puppy fields, dismantled [00:25:23] 419 illegal waterboards, destroyed [00:25:26] 64 solar systems and repatriated [00:25:30] 110 foreign traffickers. national seizures exceeded [00:25:34] a 361 metric tons of narcotics worth [00:25:37] billions, cutting off major supply lines with [00:25:41] technology driven surveillance, corridor intelligence [00:25:45] and the interagency coordination. pakistan maintains [00:25:49] its poppy free status since 2001. The [00:25:52] country is not just protecting its borders, it's safeguarding the [00:25:56] region and the world. Afghanistan may be the source, but [00:26:00] Pakistan is the shield. beating the fight against narcotics [00:26:04] and ensuring safer, drug-free [00:26:06] future. [00:26:21] you delected to go to [00:26:22] war. [00:26:27] only congress can actually undo the sanctions, so [00:26:31] whatever Trump says... It has to go through congress, one [00:26:35] the key weapons that Iran is using this moves for is leverage against the [00:26:38] US, having a US presence on your territory has made you [00:26:42] more likely [00:26:43] to be attacked, realignments taking place to counter the Israelis [00:26:47] and that includes your country, Pakistan along with [00:26:51] Saudi Arabia and Egypt and [00:26:52] Turkey.

[00:29:05] The future is not limited by boundaries, it's defined beyond [00:29:09] borders. Join me on this very journey only [00:29:12] on Pakistan [00:29:14] TV. [00:29:22] Before the vestle blows, before the final bell, there is the [00:29:25] conversation. It's a language understood by every [00:29:29] stadium, on every street corner. It's a moment. your [00:29:33] heartbeat with million others, it's [00:29:36] a roar of crowd, the silence of [00:29:39] anticipation, it's a triumphant cry of a [00:29:43] champion, it's more than a game, it's a [00:29:47] connection [00:29:52] speaks to the [00:29:53] world.
