00:01:41Welcome to Mecca Al-Mukarramah and from
00:01:44next to the Holy House of Allah, you are
00:01:47kindly requested, Sir, Your Excellency the President,
00:01:51and His Excellency the Prime Minister, to sign
00:01:54the Mecca Agreement for joint
00:01:57defense.
00:02:30Our esteemed President and Prime Minister,
00:02:33I request your presence to sign the Mecca Joint Defense
00:02:36Agreement.
00:03:56audit done. He thinks
00:04:21happening so
00:04:22that it can be
00:04:31we talk about how it is part of
00:04:45across the country, including Karachi.
00:05:00another clear point
00:05:09has its internal that this that this area,
00:06:12You have seen a pleasant
00:06:15turn in history a while ago
00:06:18when Pakistan gained a strategically important
00:06:22position. Pakistan, Saudi Arabia,
00:06:25and Turkey signed a joint
00:06:27defense agreement at Qasr Al-Safa in Mecca
00:06:30Al-Mukarramah. The Prime Minister
00:06:34of Pakistan signed the agreement on behalf of Pakistan.
00:06:38Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman
00:06:41signed it on behalf of Saudi Arabia,
00:06:45while Recep Tayyip Erdogan signed it on behalf of
00:06:49Turkey. After the signing, the three
00:06:52leaders shook hands with each other.
00:06:55They took pictures with the signed document, and when
00:06:59the pictures were being taken, the Prime Minister motioned to Field Marshal
00:07:03Asim Munir and Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar to come and be part of the
00:07:06group photo. We will show you those scenes in a few
00:07:10moments. These are the scenes from a few moments
00:07:14before the signing. Once again, we have shown our viewers that this is a very
00:07:18important and
00:07:21far-reaching decision by the three leaders. Last year, a defense agreement
00:07:24was reached between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, and now a defense
00:07:28agreement has been reached with three parties.
00:07:31The most important Islamic countries, including
00:07:35Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan, have signed
00:07:38a defense agreement. Any attack on any one country
00:07:44will be considered an attack on all three countries.
00:07:48The relations between Saudi Arabia and Turkey
00:07:52have taken a very pleasant turn,
00:07:55and it has taken a year to reach
00:07:58this point. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed
00:08:02bin Salman, along with Recep Tayyip
00:08:06Erdogan, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, and Prime Minister Shehbaz
00:08:10Sharif, also played a very key role.
00:08:43The Foreign Minister is also seen in this group
00:08:46photo. After this, the three leaders engaged in friendly
00:08:50conversation, holding each other's hands
00:08:53and congratulating each other.
00:08:57Discussions on important matters are also visible
00:09:00in these scenes.
00:09:04The atmosphere is visible. Undoubtedly, this is a very
00:09:07important step for peace.
00:09:11Regarding Salman and Turkey,
00:09:44the NATO alliance. President Trump, in the last
00:09:47four months, has raised many concerns
00:09:51about NATO, especially about the role of European
00:09:54countries, with which President Trump did not seem satisfied.
00:09:58In such a situation, an important NATO ally
00:10:02has now become part of a defense agreement
00:10:05that is very important for the region. It is being
00:10:09seen as an alliance of Islamic countries. When we looked
00:10:12at the opinion of Western analysts,
00:10:16their view is
00:10:19is a new turning point
00:10:22in history since
00:12:08Therefore, I believe that first, I don't think
00:12:12I should respond to his statement in that way, but
00:12:15the factual position is that the figure of 169 in the National
00:12:19Assembly is complete for the PML-N even without the PPP. That is, the PML-N
00:12:23and its two or three allies come together, the BAP
00:12:26Party, I am sorry, the IPP
00:12:29and the third party MQM. If you add these three,
00:12:33their figure becomes 169. But our PPP
00:12:36is a very good ally, and I think that in elections
00:12:40you criticize each other, but the purpose of that criticism is not
00:12:43at all to go to such a level against each other that you can't even sit face to face
00:12:46later. So, I think Bilawal's words are emotional.
00:12:50Zardari will take these things very seriously, and I don't see
00:12:53the PPP.
00:13:02If there was scope for improvement in Bhutto's constitution, which was made
00:13:06in 1973, 40 years later, in 2011, Raza Rabbani
00:13:09Sahib felt that there was scope for improvement in it, so the 18th amendment
00:13:13came. If there is scope for improvement in the 18th amendment 16 years later,
00:13:17then there should be a debate on it in the assembly, whether it is about improving
00:13:20the NFC award or further returning the ministries that were surrendered
00:13:24to the center.
00:13:58It's a good thing, I think any minister says that the Prime Minister
00:14:02should evaluate the performance, but the Prime Minister, according to the news
00:14:05that has been circulating, I personally know, a month ago, the Prime
00:14:08Minister requested a report on the performance of all ministries,
00:14:12and I think it will go to the Prime Minister in the next three or four days. But
00:14:16Mr. Naqvi went a step further and said that he should get a third-party
00:14:21that maybe his performance is the best, but
00:14:55Today, throughout the country, I want to tell you, there is an important protest
00:14:58by Jamaat-e-Islami, so your movement, your traffic, your plans
00:15:02may also be affected. Jamaat-e-Islami will protest
00:15:06today against back-breaking inflation
00:15:10Especially in Karachi, there will be large gatherings, meaning traffic will
00:15:13also be blocked on various roads, especially today there will be a nationwide protest
00:15:17against the rising prices of petrol, electricity, and gas. In Karachi, the protest
00:15:21rally will start from Mazar-e-Quaid. The Amir of Jamaat-e-Islami, Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman, says that the government
00:16:07and putting us in trouble. We have to stand against them.
00:16:10Until you put up a strong struggle. Until you come out,
00:16:14the problem will not be solved. Okay,
00:16:18let's talk about the protest that is happening today.
00:16:21Tariq Abu Al-Hassan is with us. Geo News correspondent from Karachi.
00:16:25Tariq, first of all, because it's Friday today and a
00:16:29weekend is also starting, and there's a lot of trouble in Karachi when there are
00:16:32protests like this. What expectations should we have? Where
00:16:35are blockades expected?
00:16:40Jamaat-e-Islami has called for protests at more than 500
00:16:43locations across the country, and for this protest,
00:16:47Jamaat-e-Islami has three major demands.
00:16:50First of all, the levy taxes collected on petrol
00:16:53should be abolished, which amounts to approximately
00:16:57125 rupees per liter of petrol, including
00:17:00all taxes. Similarly, secondly, the prices of
00:17:03petroleum should be frozen for three years,
00:17:07and the price of petrol should be fixed at 225 rupees
00:17:10per liter. And thirdly, the contracts
00:17:14of IPPs that are generating expensive electricity should be reviewed,
00:17:18and the generation of expensive electricity should be stopped. On these three
00:17:22major demands, Jamaat-e-Islami will hold sit-ins
00:17:24today at 4 PM on all major
00:17:28roads across the country. You asked about Karachi,
00:17:32so processions will emerge from all districts

00:21:11miss sold expert does the heavy lifting of your car finance
00:21:14claim, so you don't
00:21:15have to, you'll still need to fix the...
00:22:35Well, the news is positive. After Iran and Oman agreed on a shipping
00:22:38agreement in Hormuz, it is now hoped that America and Iran will resume
00:22:42negotiations from where they left off.
00:22:46Pause. Does anyone remember where it ended?
00:23:20and the Strait of Hormuz will open. After the agreement between Iran
00:23:23and Oman on a new route for the Strait of Hormuz,
00:23:27Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has arrived in Saudi Arabia.
00:23:30Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is visiting at the invitation
00:23:34of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Field Marshal Asim Munir
00:23:38is also with the Prime Minister. According to media reports,
00:23:41Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey will hold
00:23:44a summit today, and a joint defense agreement
00:23:48will be signed between the three countries. Disturbing news has emerged
00:23:52from Yemen. And what is it? It is that more than 45 people
00:23:55have been killed in an attack by Houthis on military installations in Marib.
00:23:59According to Arab media, Houthis targeted military installations with missiles
00:24:03and drones. In Houthi attacks, 11 civilians have been injured in Najran.
00:24:06Among the victims are seven Saudis, Yemenis, Egyptians, and one
00:24:10Pakistani citizen. The coalition forces' spokesperson said that the protection
00:24:14of civilians is a top priority and such attacks will be appropriately
00:24:17responded to. So, the front is hot there.
00:24:50and Iran will show wisdom this time, and continue
00:24:53discussions? Well, the world
00:24:57runs on hope. But besides that,
00:25:01I would say that these discussions
00:25:05between Oman and
00:25:08Iran are basically
00:25:12clarified that the ships
00:25:16passing through there, the merchant
00:25:20ships, their security can be ensured.
00:25:23Secondly, on that basis,
00:25:27they will get insurance, otherwise no one will give them insurance,
00:25:30and the companies and owners of the ships
00:25:34might not easily send them there. So this is
00:25:38in the interest of both countries,
00:25:41in the interest of the entire Gulf, that some
00:25:45understanding should be reached. But there is
00:25:50that Iran is not hinting, but loudly proclaiming
00:25:55and this region,
00:25:59waters, and its
00:26:33There are hardliners in Iran and there are also people
00:26:36who are pragmatic who interpret
00:26:39Iran's national interest in a different
00:26:44the Islamic Republican Guards have another interpretation
00:26:48of it, so it's good that there is an opportunity
00:26:51internally. Then there is the
00:26:55I welcome it in this respect
00:27:00statements.
00:30:08In Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey, a defense agreement
00:30:11means an attack on one will be considered an attack on all three. Prime
00:30:15Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and
00:30:18Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan have signed the Mecca
00:30:22Joint Defense Agreement. A summit of the three countries for joint
00:30:25defense was held at Qasr Al-Safa in Mecca. Prime Minister Shehbaz
00:30:29Sharif, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and Turkish
00:30:34President held a meeting. Long-standing relations between Saudi Arabia,
00:30:37Turkey, and Pakistan were reviewed. The Foreign Office spokesperson
00:30:41said that the purpose of the agreement is to strengthen joint defense
00:30:44capabilities against any aggression.
