[00:00:00] Being a minister of India,
[00:00:06] a of America knows it, of Canada knows it.
[00:00:22] Pakistan has been working with China, it's also been working with Saudi
[00:00:26] Arabia and other
[00:00:27] of countries. We still have. naval
[00:00:31] officer involved in such activities, we can say we have a
[00:00:35] decreased scale of direct confrontation rather
[00:00:39] than decent
[00:00:40] of cease fire in lebanon. the stature of china on the
[00:00:44] international and global spire is has
[00:00:48] become more prominent. president trump has domestic
[00:00:52] and important mandate that he believe china can be a partner in achievement. he is
[00:00:56] looking at the midterm,
[00:00:57] of he is looking at his current presidency. we should do the... road shows across
[00:01:01] in the region and all that to fish this product that now we are
[00:01:04] ready for the business. pakistan is very responsible,
[00:01:08] mature nuclear
[00:01:11] of country with very profession and
[00:01:15] in better.
[00:01:21] Pakistan has categorically debunged India's baseless and
[00:01:25] misleading remarks regarding US president Donald Trump's
[00:01:28] recent comments on news. nuclear testing: once again, New Delhi
[00:01:32] has twisted facts attempting to link Trump's words to
[00:01:36] Pakistan's nuclear program, a
[00:01:38] of desperate bit
[00:01:40] to malign Pakistan's impeccable record. See
[00:01:43] clendestine and illegal nuclear
[00:01:45] activities are in keeping with Pakistan's
[00:01:49] history that is centered around decades
[00:01:52] of
[00:01:54] of smuggling, export control
[00:01:55] of violations, secret partnerships, aq
[00:01:59] khan. network and further
[00:02:02] proliferation. India has always drawn the attention
[00:02:05] of the international community to these aspects of Pakistan's
[00:02:09] record. In this backdrop, we have
[00:02:12] in taken note of President Trump's comment about
[00:02:16] Pakistan's nuclear testing, but Pakistan's foreign office
[00:02:20] wasted no time in setting the record straight. It stated that
[00:02:24] US has already clarified its position and there is no
[00:02:28] connection whatsoever to Pakistan. nuclear activities,
[00:02:31] Pakistan reaffirmed that its last and only nuclear test
[00:02:35] were in May 1998 and its stance remains
[00:02:39] consistent, responsible and
[00:02:42] of transparent. After having lost that war,
[00:02:45] of India
[00:02:45] of is
[00:02:46] of definitely a desperate to defame
[00:02:49] Pakistan as a state and they don't leave any
[00:02:53] stone
[00:02:53] of unturn of to you mel
[00:02:56] Pakistan, unlike India which has abstained. from key
[00:03:00] UN resolutions calling for a global ban on nuclear
[00:03:04] testing, exposing its ambiguous and dangerous
[00:03:07] intent. In today's world, no nuclear testing can
[00:03:11] go hidden because
[00:03:12] of the very precise
[00:03:14] a calculation of seasmic activity. Indeed, Pakistan's
[00:03:18] nuclear program operates under one
[00:03:20] of the most secure and credible command and control
[00:03:24] of systems in the world, with
[00:03:26] of comprehensive export controls and zero violations of... international
[00:03:30] laws, meanwhile, India's own history tells a darker
[00:03:34] story
[00:03:35] of from radioactive material thefts to illegal sale of
[00:03:38] California link to Kaba atomic research center. The
[00:03:42] message is clear, Pakistan's nuclear posture is
[00:03:46] responsible, transparent and globally acknowledged,
[00:03:50] of while India's disinformation campaign only exposes
[00:03:54] its insecurity and deceat. Pakistan stands
[00:03:57] firm on facts,
[00:03:59] of not fabrication.

[00:19:39] the government of Punjab played role in resolving a longstanding
[00:19:43] issue which was impacting the export of Pakistani
[00:19:46] potatoes. Pakistan, first of all, I'm very
[00:19:50] happy that the government is now leading on this issue. I would
[00:19:54] like to say to all my fellows in Pakistan, politicians,
[00:19:58] ministers, whoever, please don't look at the numbers.
[00:20:02] Okay, numbers is not the issue many, many famous companies coming
[00:20:06] here and... but is so you know feel so
[00:20:09] promising of doing the local production and you know
[00:20:13] to get to build the uh confidence
[00:20:16] you know for the long-term partnership. this is much more to
[00:20:19] do with the really deep lack of trust between the
[00:20:23] United States in Iran. obviously that's something that goes back nearly
[00:20:39] million children are in situations of child labor, and that of
[00:20:43] course is very high number. Those incredible efforts made by
[00:20:47] Pakistan and in particular by his excellency. Minister Shahbar Shariff and his
[00:20:51] excellency Field Marshal Assim Munir are incredible and
[00:20:54] commendable in the
[00:21:11] from the heart of South Asia to the cross roads of central Asia from the turbulent middle
[00:21:15] east and North Africa to the power corridors the west what India
[00:21:19] is doing. is not bringing just
[00:21:23] IWT or Indus water treaty into
[00:21:25] question, in terms of setting a president, it's
[00:21:29] bringing all treaties the world into into question, if
[00:21:33] India wants to deny water from the indus river to the
[00:21:37] hundreds of millions of people in Pakistan, in my best
[00:21:40] judgment, it will be a war crime and it will be a crime against
[00:21:43] humanity. Pakistan is so well suited to play the role of
[00:21:47] mediator geographically and...
[00:21:51] and uh diplomatically, they understand both players and the United States and Iran
[00:21:55] have not had diplomatic relations for decades,
[00:21:58] landmark global water bankrupcy report
[00:22:01] warning about what is happening around the world, like you more and more
[00:22:05] basins around the world, river basins,
[00:22:07] ocrifers are exhausting the their water
[00:22:11] resources beyond the natural
[00:22:13] replanishment.
[00:22:25] No, we were not happy with him buying oil from
[00:22:28] Russia. If India doesn't buy oil, it makes it
[00:22:31] much easier and they're not going to
[00:22:33] buy.
[00:23:19] Before devis. glows before the final bell, there is a
[00:23:22] conversation, it's a language understood by every
[00:23:26] stadium on every street corner, it's a moment your
[00:23:29] heartbeats with million others,
[00:23:33] it's a roar of crowd, the silence of
[00:23:36] anticipation, it's a triumful cry of a
[00:23:40] champion, it's more than a game, it's a
[00:23:44] connection,
[00:23:50] to
[00:23:50] the
[00:23:55] world, in the last two days, however we've seen a change in
[00:23:59] target sets, this now includes bridges, this now includes
[00:24:03] port facilities, clear message and clear remark
[00:24:07] that pakistan is the strong regional
[00:24:10] player, is a peacemaker, yes of course there are
[00:24:13] signs, the signs that the two sides are trying
[00:24:17] to come each other, are trying to the
[00:24:20] differences people who were de-listed were in Muslim
[00:24:24] majority districts of West Bengal, these
[00:24:28] are new style of Jerry Mandering that was taking
[00:24:31] place,
[00:24:42] from the heart of South Asia to the cross roads of central Asia, from the turbulent middle
[00:24:46] east and North Africa to the power corridors the west. has
[00:24:50] successfully demonstrated its
[00:24:53] ability not just to negotiate its
[00:24:57] term, but also to negotiate on
[00:25:01] each term for that amount of time that
[00:25:05] Tehran considers as strategically equivalent.
[00:25:09] article 3 the NATO treaty is all about
[00:25:12] self-defense and that's been a sore point between the United States of
[00:25:16] America and the other NATO allies since the foundation of
[00:25:20] the the alliance, so what's happening now is burden sharing is
[00:25:24] going evolve to burden shifting, amit shah, he
[00:25:28] is the one who is running the extortion,
[00:25:31] assassination and all these plots sitting a
[00:25:34] government office, being a minister of India, America knows
[00:25:38] it, Canada knows
[00:25:40] it.
[00:25:58] Pakistan has been working with China, it's also been working
[00:26:01] with. Libia and other countries, we still
[00:26:05] have naval officer involved in
[00:26:08] such activities, we can say we have a decreased scale of
[00:26:12] direct confrontation rather than decent
[00:26:16] seasfire in Lebanon. The stature of China
[00:26:20] on the international and global safire is has
[00:26:24] become more prominent. President Trump has domestic
[00:26:28] and important mandate that he believes China can be a partner in achievement. He is
[00:26:32] looking at. the midterm, he is looking at his current presidency, we should do
[00:26:35] the road shows across in the region and all that to fish his product
[00:26:39] that now we are ready for the business. pakistan is very
[00:26:43] responsible, mature nuclear country
[00:26:47] with very profession
[00:26:49] enough. and
[00:26:57] Pakistan better has than categorically debunged India's baseless and
[00:27:00] misleading remarks regarding. US president Donald Trump's
[00:27:04] recent comments on nuclear testing. Once again, New Delhi
[00:27:08] has twisted facts attempting to link Trump's words to
[00:27:12] Pakistan's nuclear program, a desperate bit to
[00:27:15] malign Pakistan's impecable record. See,
[00:27:18] clendestine and illegal nuclear
[00:27:21] activities are in keeping with Pakistan's
[00:27:24] history.
[00:27:27] That is centered around decades of smuggling, export control
[00:27:31] violations. secret partnerships, aq
[00:27:34] khan network and further
[00:27:38] proliferation. India has always drawn the attention the international
[00:27:42] community to these aspects of Pakistan's
[00:27:45] record. In this backdrop, we have taken note of
[00:27:49] President Trump's comment about
[00:27:52] Pakistan's nuclear testing, but Pakistan's foreign office
[00:27:55] wasted no time in setting the record straight. It stated that
[00:27:59] US has already clarified its position. and there is no
[00:28:03] connection whatsoever to Pakistan's nuclear activities.
[00:28:07] Pakistan reaffirmed that its last and only nuclear
[00:28:11] test were in May 1998 and its stance
[00:28:15] remains consistent, responsible and transparent. After
[00:28:18] having lost that war, India is definitely
[00:28:22] desperate to reframe Pakistan as a
[00:28:26] state and they don't leave any stone unturn
[00:28:30] to you mel Pakistan.
[00:28:33] Unlike India, which has abstained from key UN resolutions
[00:28:37] calling for
[00:28:38] a global ban on nuclear testing, exposing its ambiguous
[00:28:42] and dangerous intent. In today's world, no
