00:05:37Assalamu Alaikum, you are watching Pakistan Television News, and I am Kashif
00:05:40Raza with you, and I am the interpreter.
00:07:15One messenger,
00:07:19one Quran,
00:07:23one Allah, one messenger, one
00:07:26Quran, one Kalima, one
00:07:30Qibla, one identity,
00:07:33Turkey, Saudi Arabia,
00:07:36Pakistan,
00:07:38guardians of the Islamic world.
00:12:25And in the US conflict, you have always seen a very
00:12:29strong pressure point ever since this war began. On that,
00:12:33the development is that Oman has mediated
00:12:37a framework, as it is called, of
00:12:40understanding, and American
00:12:44officials have also announced that such an
00:12:47understanding has been reached
00:12:50under which you can formally open the Strait of Hormuz.
00:12:54On this,
00:13:27after which they launched a first attack on ships,
00:13:30and they have their
00:13:34of this agreement, especially of how to use the Strait of Hormuz.
00:13:37Now, there were concerns about this. You saw that America also
00:13:41retaliated, and then you continued to see
00:13:45retaliation from Iran's side. So this war and
00:13:48retaliation continued, and America also did another thing,
00:13:52which is that all the sanctions in which Iran
00:13:56was seeing relief, we saw that America backed
00:13:59away from them, and now
00:14:03America has imposed new sanctions on six Iranian
00:14:06entities and one individual. And the reason for this
00:14:10is that it is being said that they have some connectivity,
00:14:14some connection with the Iran-linked digital asset network,
00:14:17and after the Hormuz attacks, America
00:14:21is claiming that we are forced to take these
00:14:25serious steps again. Now, Hormuz is
00:14:29a very strong economic and
00:14:33strategic leverage for Iran that it is using,
00:14:36and if this strait
00:14:38remains disrupted as you are seeing,
00:14:42complaints from all countries regarding
00:14:45the shipping procedure, the
00:14:48navigation procedure, and the way they are demanding
00:14:52a fee, there is a lot of freedom on this, and if it is
00:14:56not formally restored, then every country will be affected by it,
00:15:00not just Iran, not just America, those two countries that you
00:15:03are currently seeing directly at war, but the shipping of all
00:15:07countries around the world is affected by it,
00:15:10and we have seen it being affected
00:15:14supply chain has affected
00:15:50presented a resolution for its illegal termination. So you can see
00:15:53that various
00:15:56senators are taking a prominent part in it. In which they state
00:16:00that American lives are being wasted in the war against
00:16:03Iran. The prices of gas and fertilizer are also rising very high.
00:16:08And the military's stockpile is slowly running
00:16:12out. The war should be ended immediately. Well, when we talk about the military's stockpile
00:16:16running out, you should remember that even before
00:16:19that, especially the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General
00:16:23Dan Kaine, formally advised President Trump, formally advised
00:16:27the Pentagon, writing in a letter that they should
00:16:31immediately withdraw from the Iran war because our stockpiles
00:16:35are now running very low.
00:17:37his blockade is in place, so their situation
00:17:41is also precarious. They would want to get out of it, but since all their policies
00:17:45are under the control of the IRGC, it is a heavily militarized decision-
00:17:49making, and because of that, I think some hardline
00:17:52decisions are made that do not benefit them.
00:17:56America also wants to get out because mid-term elections are
00:17:59coming, and they are under stress. There are some reports that their
00:18:03defensive weapon systems, the interceptors, THAAD,
00:18:06and
00:20:00and if the war starts again, it is not in Iran's benefit,
00:20:04nor in the benefit of other
00:20:37they should resolve the issue of nuclear enrichment, which is
00:20:41the root of this whole dispute, and after that, the issue
00:20:45in Southern Lebanon of Israel's withdrawal
00:20:48and keeping it clear. So these are four issues that were to be resolved
00:20:52in 60 days, and after the agreement,
00:20:56other matters were to be improved, but if it is not
00:20:59given a chance, on the basis of the Islamabad Memorandum
00:21:03of Understanding, on which the agreement is to be made,
00:21:07then this continuous
00:21:10destabilization will remain in this region, and
00:21:13both opposing forces can again
00:21:16move towards tension. Well, this Islamabad Memorandum
00:22:20one, they can play to their own gallery, and
00:22:24the essence is that if matters are settled, then that is an enduring,
00:22:28sustainable, permanent basis
00:22:31for settlement, and in that, the
00:22:35fundamental cause is resolved. Until the fundamental cause
00:22:38is resolved, then this will be negative peace, meaning
00:22:42violence will be absent, but positive peace means that its
00:22:45causes will not be removed, so at any
00:22:49time, the region can again move towards tension.
00:23:20Both main belligerent powers,
00:23:24Iran and America, need to understand this, and here
00:23:27comes the role of mediators, because there is a very good
00:23:31article by Stimson in which he has given
00:23:34the concept that Pakistan has taken a geopolitical
00:23:38advantage and played a mediating
00:23:40role as a credible moral force,
00:23:44and it is still playing
00:23:48its limitation is that it can only
00:23:52do this when the moment is ripe. And the moment is ripe when
00:23:56there is mutual hurting consensus, meaning
00:23:59both parties understand that if we continue this war,
00:24:03it will be detrimental to us, and if we stop it,
00:24:07there is also some loss for us. They are unable to take any step, so when the moment is ripe,
00:24:11mediators step in. Pakistan did it before, very successfully
00:24:14conducted diplomacy. Now also is the opportunity for Pakistan,
00:24:18and Pakistan is the only credible mediator,
00:24:22regardless of what Qatar,
00:24:24Saudi Arabia, Egypt, all these countries are trying, because they are all affected
00:24:28by instability in the region, but the trust
00:24:31of Iranians and Americans in Pakistan is greater
00:24:35because it is a completely neutral arbiter.
00:24:38And its strongest points are
00:24:41that it is affected. Obviously, there is a 900-kilometer border
00:24:45with Iran. It would not want Iran to be destabilized. Similarly, it would not want
00:24:49its ally, America, to be embroiled
00:24:52in such a war and such matters
00:24:55that would distract it from other matters in
00:24:59South Asia or the Pacific.
00:25:01So it should be taken away from that. So that's
00:25:05why Pakistan's position at this time is morally,
00:25:08geopolitically, quite strong. The leadership is very clear,
00:25:11and the need at this age is that both parties,
00:25:15especially the Iranians, since they have suffered more loss,
00:25:19there is a need for building.
00:26:02or blame a few elements within it, then you feel that even
00:26:06there, the hardliners do not want to stop this war at any cost,
00:26:12that even if negotiations happen
00:26:15or a deal or agreement is reached,
00:26:17it will still be sabotaged. These
00:26:20complications regarding Iran are valid, we accept
00:26:24that they exist. At this time, they have
00:26:28a young leadership after the elimination
00:26:31of the top leadership.
00:28:32to show, and since if you don't give it a chance,
00:28:36and every action will have a reaction, then this
00:28:39continuous verbal and
00:28:42diplomatic jousting will
00:28:46lead both protagonists nowhere. So the entire
00:28:49region will suffer if this
00:28:53Bab-el-Mandeb and this
00:28:56is closed even for a short while, it will have a major negative
00:29:00impact on the world economy and on countries,
00:29:03including us. So America now has a greater responsibility
00:29:07at this time to show large-heartedness
00:29:12way. The matters between Iran and Oman will be settled
00:29:16because that is an operational level
00:29:18discussion. The Iranian
00:29:22leadership has to explain to them that they must
00:29:25also abide by international law
00:30:17And it is for this reason that there is a continuous effort from within them to somehow obtain some concession in this matter. concessions.
00:30:21Similarly, there is the issue of Hormuz.
00:30:24Now they have moved towards maximalist demands. Earlier,
00:30:28they just wanted to have leverage over it. Now they are saying
00:30:32that we also need to gain control over it,
00:30:35and after that, the transit phase, which, according to UNCLOS
00:30:39and international customary law, no transit fee can
00:30:43be levied on an international waterway because there is a right
00:30:46of innocent passage and also a transit right.
00:30:49Many UN conventions and other
00:30:53international law bodies,
00:30:57even the rulings of the ICJ,
