[00:12:37] The US senate has narrowly confirmed hot blanch as attorney general with [00:12:41] two Republican senators joining all Democrats and opposing President Donald Trump's [00:12:44] hormone.

American senator Mitch [00:12:56] McConnell was absent. Mogarovsky has said that she would oppose planch [00:13:00] despite describing him as decent and capable following [00:13:03] several meetings with him. Republican senator Bill Cassidy who had been [00:13:07] seen as a possible swing vote announced that he would support Planch. He [00:13:11] said he considered Planch better option than potential alternatives in want that [00:13:15] rejecting him could put progress against violent crimes, [00:13:19] drug trafficking and fraud at [00:13:21] risk. [00:13:27] The US senate has passed bill that would extend government funding to December [00:13:31] 11th a bit to avoid to shut down ahead the upcoming mid-term [00:13:35] elections. The chamber moved to tackle the funding deadline over a month in advance [00:13:39] to the September 30th deadline. It's not yet clear though if law makers will [00:13:43] manage to stav the funding right next month. The bill passed by [00:13:46] the Senate would next have to be taken up by the house where it's faites uncertain [00:13:50] as that ch have chamber have already passed an [00:13:53] alternative measure. "the senate measure differs from the funding extension [00:13:57] passed by the house in several ways, including lack of funding for immigration and [00:14:01] customs enforcement and customs and border protection which have already been funded through [00:14:05] the end of President Donald Trump's term. it also includes a temporary block a [00:14:09] proposed administration rule that critix one could further politicize federal [00:14:13] grants.

[00:19:09] from the heart of South Asia to the cross roads of central Asia, from the turbulent middle [00:19:13] east and North Africa to the power corridors the west, what India [00:19:17] is doing is not bringing just [00:19:21] IWT or Indus water treaty into [00:19:24] question, in terms of setting a president, it's [00:19:27] bringing all treaties the world into into question if India wants [00:19:31] to deny water from the Indus river to the hundreds of [00:19:35] millions of people [00:19:36] in Pakistan. in my best judgment, it will be a war [00:19:40] crime and it will be a crime against humanity. Pakistan is so well [00:19:44] suited to play the role of mediator, geographically and [00:19:48] culturally and uh diplomatically, they understand both [00:19:52] players and the United States in Iran have not had diplomatic relations for [00:19:56] decades. landmark um global water bankrupcy [00:19:59] report warning about what is happening around the world and like you more and [00:20:03] more basins around the world, river basins, ocrifers um [00:20:08] are exhausting the the water resources beyond the [00:20:11] natural [00:20:12] replenishment. [00:20:23] now we were not happy with him buying oil from [00:20:26] Russia. If India doesn't buy oil, it makes it [00:20:30] much easier. And they're not going to buy, [00:20:32] they. [00:21:17] Before the wistle blows, before the final. bell there is the [00:21:21] conversation, it's a language understood by every [00:21:25] stadium on every street corner, it's a moment, your [00:21:28] heartbeats with million others, it's [00:21:32] a roar of crowd, the silence of [00:21:35] anticipation, it's a triamp cry of a [00:21:38] champion, it's more than a game, it's a [00:21:42] connection [00:21:47] tv speaks to the world. [00:21:55] Uh, in the last two days, however, we've seen a change in target sets, uh, [00:21:59] this now includes bridges, this now includes port [00:22:02] facilities, clear message and clear remark that [00:22:06] Pakistan is the strong regional player, is a [00:22:10] peacemaker? Yes, of course there are signs, there are signs [00:22:13] that the two sides are trying to come each other, [00:22:17] are trying to settle the differences. people who were [00:22:21] de-listed were in Muslim majority districts [00:22:24] of West Bengal, these are new [00:22:28] style of Jerry Mandering that was taking [00:22:29] place. [00:22:41] From the heart of South Asia to the cross roads of central Asia from the turbulent middle [00:22:45] east and North Africa to the power corridors the west. Iran has [00:22:49] successfully demonstrated its [00:22:52] ability not just to negotiate its [00:22:56] term, but also to negotiate on [00:23:00] each term for that amount of time that [00:23:03] Tehran considers as strategically equivalent. [00:23:07] article 3 the NATO treaty is all about [00:23:11] self-defense and that's been a sore point between the United States of [00:23:14] America and the other NATO allies since the foundation [00:23:18] the uh the... alliance [00:23:20] so what's happening now is burden sharing is going evolve to burden [00:23:24] shifting, Amit Shah, he is the one who is running [00:23:28] the extortion, assassination and all these [00:23:31] plots sitting a government office, being a minister [00:23:35] of India, America knows it, Canada knows [00:23:38] it. [00:23:57] Pakistan has been working with China, it's also been working with Saudi [00:24:01] Arabia and other countries, we still [00:24:03] have naval officer involved [00:24:07] in such activities, we can say we have a decreased scale of [00:24:11] direct confrontation rather than decent [00:24:15] seesfire in Lebanon. The stature of China [00:24:19] on the international and global suffire is has [00:24:22] become more prominent. President Trump has domestic [00:24:26] and important mandate that he believes China can be a partner in achievement. He is [00:24:30] looking at the midterm, he is looking at his current presidency. We should do the [00:24:34] road shows across in the region and all that to fish this product [00:24:38] that now we are ready for the business. Pakistan is very [00:24:42] responsible, mature, nuclear [00:24:45] country with very profession and [00:24:47] better hearted. [00:24:55] Pakistan has categorically debunged India's baseles and [00:24:59] misleading remarks regarding US president Donald Trump's [00:25:03] recent comments on nuclear testing. Once again, New Delhi has [00:25:07] twisted facts attempting to link Trump's words to [00:25:10] Pakistan's nuclear program. A desperate bit to [00:25:14] milign Pakistan's impeccable record. See [00:25:17] clendestine and illegal. [00:25:20] activities are in keeping with Pakistan's [00:25:23] history that is centered around decades [00:25:27] of smuggling, export control violations, [00:25:31] secret partnerships, aq khan [00:25:34] network and further [00:25:36] proliferation. India has always drawn the attention the international [00:25:40] community to these aspects of Pakistan's [00:25:43] record. In this backdrop, we have taken note of [00:25:47] President Trump's comment. about [00:25:50] Pakistan's nuclear testing, but Pakistan's foreign office [00:25:54] wasted no time in setting the record straight. It stated that [00:25:58] US has already clarified its position and there is no. [00:26:02] action whatsoever to Pakistan's nuclear activities. [00:26:06] Pakistan reaffirmed that its last and only nuclear [00:26:09] test where in May 1998 and its [00:26:13] stance remains consistent, responsible and transparent. [00:26:17] After having lost that war, India is [00:26:20] definitely desperate to defame [00:26:23] Pakistan as a state and they don't leave any [00:26:27] stone unturn to mine [00:26:31] Pakistan. like India, which has abstained from key [00:26:34] UN resolutions, calling [00:26:37] for a global ban on nuclear testing, exposing its [00:26:40] ambiguous and dangerous intent. In today's world, no [00:26:44] nuclear testing can go hidden because the very [00:26:48] precise calculation of seasmic activity. Indeed, [00:26:52] Pakistan's nuclear program operates under one the most [00:26:55] secure and credible command and control systems in the [00:26:59] world. With comprehensive export controls. and [00:27:02] zero violations of international laws, meanwhile, [00:27:06] India's own history tells a darker story from radioactive [00:27:10] material thefts to illegal sale of Californiam a link to [00:27:14] Kaba atomic research center. The message is [00:27:17] clear, Pakistan's nuclear posture is [00:27:20] responsible, transparent and globally acknowledged, [00:27:24] while India's disinformation campaign only exposes [00:27:28] its insecurity and deceat. Pakistan stands firm. [00:27:32] on facts, not [00:27:33] fabrication. [00:27:40] hello and welcome to experts corner. this is Mahin [00:27:42] Jofree. [00:27:48] I think Trump one seat elected to go to [00:27:50] war. [00:27:55] only Congress can actually undo the sanctions, so [00:27:59] whatever Trump says, it has to go through. Yes, one the [00:28:03] key weapons that Iran is using the straight off moves for is leverage against the [00:28:07] US. Having a US presence on your territory has made [00:28:10] you more likely to be attacked realignments taking place to [00:28:14] counter the Israelis and that includes your country, Pakistan, along [00:28:18] with uh Saudi Arabia and Egypt and [00:28:20] Turkey. [00:28:33] "Pakistan has done human work, it's been [00:28:36] absolutely remarkable what Pakistan, what islam [00:28:40] about has been able to bring about? I think the countries that [00:28:44] are mediating have to keep plugging away and trying to find a [00:28:47] motus, solution. I think the first thing that has to [00:28:51] happen is there has to be agreement on the straight of hormoves, [00:28:55] because that was the cause of this latest war. Most [00:28:58] important part is going to be dialogue, and I think the Pakistan." [00:29:02] and back door diplomacy uh qatar also is [00:29:06] essential. India is not only destabilizing the region, India [00:29:10] has, I think it's look at this ambition, it was involved in [00:29:14] terrorist acts in Canada, the persecution of minorities in India has [00:29:17] been very, very long problem, [00:29:21] very systemic problem, systematic persecution [00:29:25] the Muslims there, not only the Muslims but also the [00:29:28] Christians, on forces are police and [00:29:32] days and scouts, rangers, they are doing the very [00:29:35] best. [00:30:19] Hello and [00:30:20] a very [00:30:20] warm welcome to Pakistan TV, I fizza sajaal with the top stories of this [00:30:24] hour. [00:30:48] Nationwide celebrations mark historic Makka joint defense agreement between [00:30:52] Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkey celebration will continue until Monday with [00:30:56] public and private buildings illuminated in green and red lights.
