🇵🇰 Pakistan greenlights goods transit to Iran via its territory
The Pakistani Commerce Ministry has released the “Transit of Goods Order 2026,” which stipulates allowing third-country goods to pass through Pakistan to Iran.
Key transit corridors on Pakistani territory include Gwadar, Karachi, Taftan, Port Qasim, Ormara, Quetta, and Khuzdar, according to the order.
Godi media is in apoplectic meltdown.
Hell hath no fury like frothing anchors losing their favorite boogeyman. They’d rather set the studio on fire than let a peace deal ruin a profitable script of hate.
Peace is the only thing they fear.

When one side dictates terms from a position of perceived superiority, it is not seeking peace; it is demanding a surrender at the negotiating table.
Lasting peace is based on mutual respect & restraint, not on ultimatums scripted by the aggressor.

Trump calls Pope Leo weak and claims credit for his papacy.
A chilling reminder of America First, the Pontiff himself isn't spared for preaching peace.
#PopeVsTrump
Total collapse of US credibility and parleys framed around compliance not compromise are the inherent flaw in Washington’s posture. It approaches peace as something to be imposed rather than negotiated.

An individual with a shotgun, handgun and knives bypasses two presidential security checkpoints at the #WashingtonHilton and takes pot shots!
Deafening coincidence, given the failing #IranWar narrative!
Let’s understand why Iran’s FM is undertaking visits to Islamabad, Moscow, and Muscat.
Pakistan is a lead mediator, Russia is a main Iranian ally, and Oman hosted the previous round of talks.
What I understand is that there appears to be some framework being developed on two key issues: the nuclear program and the Strait of Hormuz.
On the nuclear issue, Russia has previously expressed its desire to take over the 60% enriched uranium.
So, the Iranian FM’s visit is not a coincidence. Also, Iran needs guarantees, and Putin can chip in with that by talking to Trump.
The Oman visit is not necessarily meant for exploring Muscat as a venue for the next round, but to potentially discuss the way forward over the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran and Oman may jointly exercise control and collect tolls.
Hence, as I stated in the morning, amid most people predicting a doomsday scenario, “discreet diplomacy” was taking shape.
And the visit of the Iranian FM is the outcome of those behind-the-scenes maneuvers.
A frustrated White House, an unabated Pentagon purge - yet still a bareknuckled fist.
Even the grandest delusions of dominance should not be limitless.

Washington should understand that the biggest hurdle to peace with Iran is the total collapse of US credibility.
After decades of tornup deals and shifting goalposts, why should any nation trust a handshake that morphs into a fist on the whims of an individual?
Trump and Netanyahu called Hungary's PM Victor Orbran their true friend.
A dual kiss of death, a 2/3 majority landslide victory by Peter Magyar and the Tisza party ended his 16 year rule.
All "true friends" beware!

Pakistan’s attempts at peace in the Iran conflict saw the professional decorum of a career envoy morph into street-level scurrilous polemics.
It is indicative of the fact that even diplomacy has been subsumed by the toxic tide of Hindutva zealotry.

If PAF jets must shield Iranian delegates to arrive safely in Islamabad to attend peace talks attended by the VPOTUS, the mask slips.
Washington isn’t leading the Middle East; it is hostage to Israel, its own enfant terrible.

Ben Roberts-Smith, Australia's most decorated living soldier, draped in the VC, MG, and campaign medals was arrested today for war crimes in Afghanistan.
Those carrying out the same in #Gaza and #Iran should take note. Impunity doesn't last forever. The reckoning always comes.
Thanks to former English cricketer David Lloyd for strongly condemning the mistreatment of Imran Khan and calling for his immediate medical treatment. @BumbleCricket
