The perpetual crisis on the Durand Line between Pakistan and Afghanistan is fueled by Kabul’s ideological rejection of the border that is rooted in irredentism, and damaged by Islamabad’s internal incoherence, preventing a realistic resolution to the TTP-driven security dilemma.
The EU approach to the Russia-Ukraine war is a mixture of sanctions, military and financial aid to the Ukrainian government, diversification of the European energy sources, humanitarian intervention, and long-term security planning to enhance the stability of Europe and to defeat the aggression of Russia.
EU Strategic Autonomy is the ambition of Europe to act on its own in terms of defense, technology, economy and in world affairs. Sweden is empowering the EU to respond to crisis and protect the sovereignty and resilience by joining NATO through integration and technological capabilities.
The possible deployment of Pakistani troops to Gaza represents a landmark decision in Pakistan’s foreign policy and must be guided by the principles of legality, legitimacy, and a clear humanitarian focus. While moral duty and long-standing historical ties with the Palestinian people may encourage active engagement, concerns over operational risks, political fragility, and the complex dynamics of regional powers warrant caution. Any use of force should occur strictly within a UN-backed multilateral framework, with a mandate limited to humanitarian purposes and full parliamentary approval. Without these safeguards, such a move could undermine Pakistan’s international credibility, strain its security posture, and risk unnecessary military involvement. Therefore, a prudent approach combining effective diplomacy, sustained humanitarian assistance, and strictly regulated peacekeeping would best preserve Pakistan’s moral authority, safeguard its national interests, promote long-term regional stability, and meaningfully alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people.
Few conflicts have captured global attention for as long, and with as much moral weight, as the Israeli–Palestinian struggle. Each side claims legitimacy grounded in history, law, and justice. Yet, as this comparative analysis shows, the Palestinian and Israeli perspectives operate within fundamentally different frameworks: one seeks liberation from occupation, the other the preservation of sovereignty and security. Using a comparative methodology allows us to examine the assumptions, values, and contradictions that shape both narratives and how they interact with international law and global ethics.
In the chorography of global politics, Pakistan’s foreign policy has experienced the burden of previous decades of turbulence, missed opportunities, and irrelevancies. After years of defensive measures, Islamabad is now unveiling itself as an assertive, cooperative, and indispensable partner at both regional and global levels. Before Marka-e-Haq, the country had remained quite sidelined in the theatre of international politics. However, since May 2025, after the victory of Operation Bunyan ul Marsos, it has actively engaged in intensive bilateral and multilateral engagements with all major powers across the globe to achieve tangible national interests. In this regard, Pakistan’s engagement with China, the USA, and bilateral cooperation with Russia, as well as in the Muslim world, is meticulously planned to secure the country’s economic and political interests.
Lord Kelvin, the legendary British mathematician and physicist, is famous for his contributions towards formulating laws of thermodynamics. Curiously, his scepticism about flight is clear when he said “Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible” as the President of Royal Society (London) in 1895. He also stated that he had “not the smallest molecule of faith in aerial navigation other than ballooning”. Another infamous quote on the topic which is often wrongly attributed to him is “If God had meant man to fly, he would have given him wings.” However, despite all the doubt, the Wright brothers showed the world visibly the endless possibilities of flying in 1903.
The evolving security triangle between Pakistan, Afghanistan, and India is that the historical rivalries, unresolved territorial disputes, and competing geopolitical interests among these three states continuously fuel instability and insecurity in South Asia, creating a complex web of conflict that obstructs regional peace and integration. The complex nature of the conflict in the region, amalgamated by the cross-border militancy, proxy wars, insurgencies, and great power rivalries, makes this region volatile, the tensest security formation in the region. This article is developed to investigate how these overlapping disputes interact, and how the actions of one state change the behaviors and policies of the other states, and lastly, how enmity affects the prospects for peace and stability in the region.
Mamdani, a 34-year-old state assemblyman, who called himself a democratic socialist, defeated the 67-year-old disgraced governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, in Tuesday’s mayoral election of NYC a city home to global capitalism. He is a Muslim immigrant, a strong voice against Zionism and Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Combined with these, he was probably the one with the slimmest chances to grab the chair at City Hall.
Floods are not only a seasonal disaster anymore, but are becoming a defining feature of our Earth’s geography. Climate Change along with poor governance structure is a catalyst of naturally-driven social crisis.
