Pak will have to pay in excess of $1 billion to secure LNG supply for the winter months, as spot prices soar amid massive disruptions to Qatari term supply
The price tag will be fueled by the spot LNG prices in Asia surging to three-year highs and the plans of the Pakistani govt to import 10 LNG cargoes from the spot market, at double the price at which LNG is being imported from Qatar, local daily Tribune reported on Tue

Yemen: The Coming Offensive & The Grand Bargain
__________________
Saudi Arabia is reportedly preparing a major offensive against the Houthis, while Washington weighs military strikes and Russia explores a diplomatic settlement with Iran
With regional powers pursuing competing interests, Yemen could become the centre of a much larger geopolitical bargain
Will military pressure secure Saudi Arabia's economic future, or will the conflict ultimately end at the negotiating table?

☆ The Houthi advance is about more than just Iran
☆ To stop the Houthis, recognize Somaliland
_____________________
Trump could potentially link American military support against the Houthis to Saudi acceptance of Somaliland’s independence
Such a bargain would strengthen an Israeli-Emirati strategic foothold across Bab el-Mandeb, potentially enhancing Red Sea surveillance & military access
For MBS, the dilemma would be profound: defeat the immediate Houthi threat at the cost of legitimising a potentially permanent Israeli-Emirati presence overlooking Saudi maritime lifelines
Riyadh could gain short-term security while surrendering long-term strategic influence
If so, would MBS exchange one security vulnerability for another?

If Democrats capture the Senate, they could block Trump’s nominees & gain subpoena powers to investigate his adm - authority unavailable through House control alone
Winning both chambers would also enable Democrats to advance their legislative agenda, although Trump could still veto their bills, limiting their ability to enact major policy changes
