[00:22:19] crackdown the global opium trade remains deeply
[00:22:23] entrenched with regional networks adapting and

[00:24:17] Sanna from Washington DC, I'm right outside. Donald Trump Institute
[00:24:21] of
[00:24:21] Peace.
[00:24:29] Hello, welcome. Pakistan TV is here in Beijing.
[00:24:33] Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif will be landing here shortly at
[00:24:36] Beijing.
[00:24:42] Hello everyone, I'm here at the Vienna airport and we are expecting the
[00:24:46] arrival of Prime Minister Shahbas Sharif shortly.
[00:24:54] greetings from Antali
[00:24:55] Turkey.
[00:25:02] As you can see behind me, we are at the Gulchin Shop in
[00:25:06] Dhaka. It's the election day in Bangladesh. We are in Dhaka and we are right now
[00:25:10] headed to Gazipur. The fourth international water conference in the
[00:25:14] shambil
[00:25:19] Pakistan.
[00:25:26] we had very regional ecological
[00:25:29] summit 2026 in astana
[00:25:32] kazakistan.
[00:26:03] "the government of Punjab played role in resolving a longstanding
[00:26:06] issue which was impacting the export of Pakistani
[00:26:42] much more to do with the really deep lack of
[00:26:45] trust between the United States and Iran, obviously that's something that goes back
[00:26:49] nearly five
[00:27:02] around 8.6 million children are in situations of
[00:27:05] child labor and that of course is very high number, those incredible
[00:27:09] efforts made by Pakistan and in particular by his excellency Prime
[00:27:13] Minister Shakbar Sharif and his excellency field marshall are
[00:27:17] incredible and commendable in the entire world. want me to
[00:27:34] From the heart of South Asia to the cross-roads of central Asia, from the turbulent
[00:27:38] middle east
[00:27:39] and North Africa to the power corridors the west, what India is
[00:27:43] doing is not bringing just
[00:27:46] IWT or Indus water treaty into
[00:27:49] question, in terms of setting a president, it's
[00:27:52] bringing all treaties the world into into question. If
[00:27:56] India wants to deny water from the Indus river to the
[00:28:00] hundreds of millions of people in Pakistan. in my best
[00:28:03] judgment, it will be a world crime and it will be a crime against
[00:28:07] humanity. Pakistan is so well suited to play the role of
[00:28:11] mediator geographically and culturally
[00:28:14] and uh diplomatically. They understand both players and the
[00:28:18] United States in Iran have not had diplomatic relations for
[00:28:21] decades, landmark um global water bankruptcy
[00:28:24] report warning about what is happening around the world and like you

[00:29:37] bridges, this now includes port facilities, clear
[00:29:40] message and clear remark that Pakistan is the
[00:29:44] strong regional player, is a peacemaker, yes of course,
[00:29:48] there are signs, there are signs that the two sides are
[00:29:52] trying to come each other, are trying to settle the
[00:29:56] differences, people who were dellisted
[00:29:58] were.
