Iranian President Dr Masoud Pezeshkian recent official visit to Pakistan, aimed to boost trade and regional connectivity with a vision that links Tehran to Beijing via Islamabad. Welcomed in Lahore and accorded full state honours in Islamabad, Pezeshkian underscored the Silk Road as a vital bridge between Iran, Pakistan, and China, with ambitions to raise Pak-Iran trade to $10 billion. Against the backdrop of strategic talks on energy, border security, and commerce, the trip signals Tehran’s push to position Pakistan as its trade gateway to China, and beyond, to Europe.
Japan’s PM Shigeru Ishiba has urged US President Donald Trump to amend steep new tariffs, as Washington’s 15% levy on Japanese exports takes effect, igniting fears for Japan’s auto industry. Tokyo’s chief negotiator Ryosei Akazawa has been dispatched to Washington to secure relief, warning that the tariffs contradict a recent trade deal in which Japan pledged $550 billion in US investment in exchange for lower auto duties. With Toyota, Honda, and other automakers heavily dependent on American buyers, Tokyo’s message is blunt: a tariff war on cars risks driving both economies off the road.
This September, Beijing will mark the 80th anniversary of World War II’s end with a military parade honoring victory over Japanese forces, and the global fight against fascism. Beyond a show of strength, it’s a call to defend historical truth, resist rising nationalism, and remember Asia’s shared wartime suffering. In an age when revisionism distorts the past, China’s commemoration becomes more than remembrance, it’s a stand for peace, accountability, and a more just future.
