so in an average household in pakistan on there is associated with women. and then there is a level of an order degree of protection that are on that has to be protected and because of public transport, if so unsafe, it's out of question for most women and young girls to take public transport on their own alone without being accompanied by their parents or father or better. so that's why most women and young girls end up being dependent on their brothers fathers to take them to maybe to a shopping mall, to a supermarket. and because it's so unfair, i can't imagine a teenage girl in pakistan being allowed to take public transport alone without being accompanied by a family member. yet when you spoke to the adviser to the chief minister in the province, her work, roger is the of which garage it is the capital a he put the honest on women to complain about the harassment that their face. i mean, is this even a realistic suggestion? i don't think it's a realistic suggestion and he also mentioned that talking about sexual harassment is at their booth topic. so a

pakistan taliban destabilize pakistan. that is certainly not part of the american desire. i been arguing that the united states cannot have this attitude of afghanistan does not matter and pakistan is less important. they have to pay attention to that region. that attention is what is lacking now. his being left to the state department and the dod. >>i doubt know how many people remember. the person had been reassigned to something else there wasn't an afghanistan desk officer at the state department because he had a few but the assistant secretary and had resigned. then 9/11 happened in the day after, the first phone call was come back to work we need you. why cant we think ahead in the united states let us look at options check if the taliban continue to put pressure on, what can we do to help pakistan, not be under that pressure? what can we do to ensure that the taliban do not become a source of turmoil for other muslim countries. the taliban do not want a modern comic but they do want an economy. how do we manage so t

i think public spaces and pakistan are fits still largely dominated by men. it's difficult for women to claim are public spaces. and when women do not have access to public transport, their social lives are affected. and very important issue duct is the issue of employment. so women do not do not have access to employment when they do not have safe public transport. and statistics say that only 20 percent of women are women are worked for the part of the workforce of pakistan. and the also spoke to an expert about this and let's, let's have a listen to what she said or families. they want to educate their daughters whether not a little because public transport options are so limited. so now we have a vast section of women in karachi that are not educated and they weren't able to pursue that. so be reach out when you do not have access to safe transport, then it means that you do not have access to schools. you do not have access to colleges and she's talking about good archie, garage is the largest city of pakistan. imagine the state of women and young girls

it is 35000000 people in pakistan. it is almost half the population of talents. a desk number of people in pakistan are fought in figure, which means they're not getting nutritious meals every day. and the un faith out of this, almost 8000000 in pakistan. 5th, emergency levels of food insecurity. but many economists believe that the current 4th crisis, if pushing many more into poverty and the thing that we have seen and that a board at the distribution center. it shows that people are risking their lives just to get some flavor for their families. and most of the people were lining up for hours. i'd women and most of the people who have been killed and injured in crushes in these crushes, i women because women are seeing their children go hungry and they won't risk anything. they can just to feed their children. so i think the situation is really dire. so in many ways you seems, if you're seeing in the distributions of those across pakistan, articulate really the economic crisis that has been the country. i think the scenes at these distribution centers have exp

medical got a in karachi, as city and south on pakistan. the women of the world festival is taking place. it includes a panel discussion, web ream, and other representatives of the transgender community discuss the current situation. conservative parties are trying to overturn the law on transgender rights on a job. some of the senators paying that this transgender per since perfection of rights, that is not under the jurisdiction of islam, according to them only intersects persons on the fronts. tinder parsons and ben bay pink that bees johnston their persons odd. the forethought of fin that badly mis informed this legislation is all about basic human rights. even if the 1st steps for their rights have been taken. transgender people in pakistan are not free to choose that gender. they're marked as x with what is the sex giving to us no privilege. we can not get maddie, and that is something which is very close to my heart. i am alone. because just because of my identity with, i'm happy to be here. although i feed these men of color so they

pakistan it makes sense for them.oming increasingly important and from pakistan's perspective, they want to make sure they can keep the lights on and the country moving. they're in mind this is discounted crude oil and that is important to pakistan at the moment because they are in a major economic crisis and the foreign currency reserves are incredibly low. now to that big if. this is whether or not pakistan's refineries can actually refine russia's crude oil. this is currently under a trial period while this dean li deal is signed, according to the reuters news agency, and that will be one very big question. there are a few other questions as well. whether or not this crude oil is going to be paid for in american us dollars, russian roubles or another currency altogether. how long is this deal potentially signed for? we don't have these details at the moment. according to reuters, the pakistanis have said they are expecting around 100,000 barrels a day from russia at the peak of the importation. that is a very signi

it is a law that provides equal rights to transgender people in pakistan. so i'm a bridge mclean. government of pakistan. angus community ream helped lumina find a government application for housing support, a couple of games, little this month. i believe there are many needing local, like me to go look at her and her. they don't own houses. first, the government should provide us with accommodation. visa, transgender persons biggest worry, is a place to live school for the, but on the floor. few transgender people have access to government support. many live off the money that they're given on the street here day by day. they are exposed to people's reactions. like hospital going are no longer there are good and bad people. most of them about him over there, a few a good people are active, but we get a lot of questions from someone will say, why are you doing this? we say to them with humans like you. if we were valued as much as you, we wouldn't be begging this, maybe of golden. transgender women also work as dancers and sex workers. for many, it's the on

now you speak about pakistan. and so what passed this sense? russia and china, you know, influencing the events in this neighborhood. but don't you think that the times are also requesting a more active physician, not only from pakistan, but many other regional powers be iran turned k, perhaps even india. i know you have a policy of neutrality, but the policy of neutrality, i suppose, doesn't mean that you have to sit and wait until russia and china figure out everything else. maybe positively try to balance, did not want it to be an extent, but you know that international policies is easier to say that you are a neutral, but it's different going to be a new drug, especially like what's done, which is a very much look at it. joe, graphically it says legend and it says in the issue of a big stand with a bigger population nuclear fall, having if you went in the region and having a distinctive role to play in the global politics. so it's such a clarity is not an onset afloat. but tom has adopted a strict bilateral ism, that we can move in on issue

pakistan's political developments have been overshadowed by this issue. in 1401, pakistan also witnessed an unprecedented flood and an increase in terrorist attacks in april 1401. imran khan, the prime minister of pakistan , was dismissed with the complicity of his opponents in the parliament . he supported the vote of no confidence in his prime minister. they registered and according to the majority of votes, this plan was approved and the second prime minister of pakistan was dismissed in the fourth year of his prime ministership. with the departure of imran khan, shehbaz sharif became the prime minister who continued internal disputes during his term . good relations with all countries were established. we are, but we are not ready to be for them. the reason for my dismissal was to oppose the demands of america , however, i will not allow to use the people of pakistan to secure my own interests. rain in the summer monsoon faced pakistan with one of the biggest natural crises in the history of this country. in the space of three months, 250% more rain f

no, chinese with their economic engagement and cpc getting into pakistan, their stakes in pakistan havereased. at the same time, you would notice that when pakistan is continuously launching a proxy war against india, the chinese, firstly, they look the other way around. secondly, they have tried to shield in number of u.n.-designated terrorists too. therefore, pakistan is a low-cost nuisance to india. as far as pakistan is concerned, china is a high value security guarantor to them. that is one issue. the second issue is that there is increasing footprints of chinese soldiers also in several areas of baltistan which is not comfortable to us. therefore, in future conflicts, to say that the sino pack says will not work would be an understatement. we expect china to behave in a particular manner as they have behaved so far. number two, as far as the sino-india implementation is concerned, we are at. in that standoff, pakistan has not intervened. so this nexus has not worked in that manner. as far as we are concerned, they both are a threat. and to make sure that we confront or handle the

but if information has power or emissions ever justified, and a sick elephant dies at pakistan's karachi, you, we look at the outcry over the treatment of animals in captivity. ah, my name is melissa chant, thanks for joining us. the indian government is revising textbooks and creating controversy for its choices on what to leave out. gone our references to gandhi's opposition to hindu nationalism and chapters on the moodle dynasty of muslim rulers . contemporary events being cut include the 2002 googe, a rot, riots, violence that took place on prime minister and to render modi's watch when he was then the states chief minister. his ruling party says these changes are necessary. blaming the former ruling, national congress party and leftist historians for curricular that it says have been divisive. t w's ideal, but reports from delhi. it is the new academic dome at the school in your daily. these 12th grade students are getting the 1st introduction to the wise textbooks on history and politics. students will no longer find the full background behind mark mcgann these assassin some chapte

and not only with pakistan, but many other countries when they have to truly focus on what's in their interest and it's no longer rhetorical point. it's actually necessitated by live by car life and hard choices. do you think we would have been at this place in this place, if it weren't for the conflict in your brain? foxtrot sported to got to the notion as i feel center, to have an asian. but i thought that is the you thought it into my mission within the state, whether it's the practical on a practical that's the reason. there is a whiting, what the americans that started the demographics in which they wanted to raise is holding the moon. so it was auto, and this, the daughter was sustaining the american adobe wanted good relation in the united states. but this thing is similarly in the u. box on is very much sportive to the u. s. vibe of self determination. and their, i feel go by themselves and in this context, but on, by mostly believe, but not sports, the ministry of ration in new york, and just in the best on the russian invasion. so in this context of cause it's limited. but o

you had the campaigns like vibrant pakistan, the rising pakistan, emerging pakistan. so there's always some herb this expectation of the same theme. and yeah, you don't seem to be able to stick with one slogan in particular, why do you think that is? i mean, both the commitment to this particular theme of and developing potential, but also not being able to play like let it open. yeah. because i think the one thing that everybody does agree on is that we haven't reached our potential. there's lots of potential, but it hasn't been maximized. it hasn't actually grown and bloomed yet. i think that's what we do all agree on. so various reasons. so that's why the theme is always emerging, are coming up or about to come up. we're about to fully realize the reason they can agree on the theme as again, were so politically fractured, new governments come in, they immediately change everything that the previous government did as far as possible. and i think until we reach that level of political maturity, it's going to be very difficult. as i said, i do have a great deal of pop

the importance that pakistan accords to the region and its foreign policy priorities. pakistan continues to participate in the s c o meetings in keeping with our long standing commitment to the s seo versus live out to our tea chorus for them immediately. runjun sharma runjun. great. so see you. now this is a big meeting is at pakistan on neighboring india frequency have coordinate ends relationship. so what does this upcoming visit really mean and for the ties between these 2 countries? oh very, very significant for all the i'd see this with a given the fact that this with it by a focus on a leader to india is happening after almost a decade. the last time looked all pockets on diplomat was in india was in 2014 and that was not on her reef. in fact, the last time a foreign minister farkas on was in india was in 2011. so almost after 12 years now, pakistani foreign minister will gone to india and that has now been confirmed by the boston foreign office in is lama bog. now let me point out here that this need to happen on the 4th and 5th of next month. so the 4th and 5th of me in the rest
