By Amir Muhammad Khan Sometimes in world politics, there are scenes where diplomacy, peace, and negotiations are seemingly discussed, but another world operates in the background—a world where predictions are made about outcomes, and billions of dollars are at stake on those predictions. The ongoing Iran-US peace talks in Islamabad today reflect this dual reality. Reports suggest that big American capitalists are facilitating speculators with statements that change every morning and evening, earning millions of dollars—especially since Pakistan has been working day and night to save the world from destruction. Field Marshal Asim Munir, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, and Deputy…

By Pervaiz Mughal ISLAMABAD: Iran’s ambassador to Pakistan, Reza Amiri Moghaddam, has said that states with deep civilizational roots do not enter negotiations under pressure or coercion, amid continued uncertainty over possible diplomatic engagement between Tehran and Washington. In a statement posted on social media platform X, he said it was an important “Islamic and moral principle” that dialogue should not take place under threats.

There is a peculiar loneliness that sets in when a trusted shield turns out to be made of paper. For the better part of two decades, the wealthy monarchies of the Gulf paid an immense security premium to Washington, assembling what they believed to be an impenetrable arc of American radar, interceptors, and naval power. They spent nearly one hundred and forty two billion dollars on systems like THAAD and Patriot, not as decoration but as a sleeping insurance policy against the only so-called imaginary threat created by America and Israel that truly keeps their rulers awake at night: Iran.…

Yet amid the din of retaliation, a quieter chorus rises: voices pleading for peace, for dialogue over destruction. The world yearns to see this tinderbox return to stability, to let development breathe again. It’s no abstract hope; it’s the desperate wish…

By Muhammad Mohsin Iqbal There is a peculiar comfort in the architecture of parliaments. The worn leather benches, the stern portraits of statesmen past, the echo of a voice raised not in anger but in argument—these are the furnishings of civilization’s attempt to govern itself without the sword. When the world’s legislative chambers fall silent, something vital leaves the air. It is the sound of hope being negotiated. This week, in the storied city of Istanbul, that sound returned, albeit softly. The 152nd Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), hosted by Türkiye’s Grand National Assembly, gathered representatives from nations that…

By Prof Dr. Aliya Kemal Ahsan In the world of paediatric cardiology, there is a fundamental truth: a surgeon can only repair what they can clearly see. For years, as I worked within the high-volume, high-pressure wards of the NICVD, I witnessed the incredible resilience of our medical teams. We are masters of volume, saving thousands of lives through sheer dedication. However, when faced with the most complex “blue baby” defects, where the anatomy is a distorted puzzle of misplaced vessels and tiny valves, we often reach the limits of traditional technology. To push past those limits, I travelled to…
