By Atiq Raja Modern life often celebrates sacrifice as the highest expression of responsibility. From childhood, many people are taught that putting others before themselves is a sign of kindness, strength, and maturity. While compassion and service remain essential human values, this belief has also created a culture where self-neglect is sometimes mistaken for commitment.

Throughout modern history, governments have repeatedly used tariffs, sanctions and market restrictions not only to protect domestic industries but also to pursue wider strategic, political and humanitarian objectives. The latest tariff measures announced by the United States have once again demonstrated how closely international trade has become intertwined with foreign policy. By imposing new duties on imports from more than 60 trading partners over concerns linked to forced labor, Washington has reopened a long-running debate over whether trade restrictions are an effective means of promoting labor rights or whether they instead…
