Trump’s Russian diesel deal changed my plans. Pakistan was next, but I’ve just pulled into Kyiv to report from the ground and tell the stories of the people living through the consequences, behind the headlines. Pakistan, see you on the way back, visa permitting. (Inshallah!)

Anti-American protest here in Greenland today en route to the US consulate. Some demonstrators have heard my accent and told me I’m not welcome here, but someone has to tell their stories to US audiences.

🎶More scenes from last night. Incredible talent! I learned a little bit more from their performance about how Pakistani music varies from location to location, with each region playing home to distinct beats.

How much military aid does the U.S. actually give Pakistan? About $3 million in FY2025. On today's episode of The Correspondent Podcast, I look at what Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed’s call to end unconditional military aid could save — and why Pakistan’s role in the Iran talks belongs in the debate.

I'm sitting in a Kyiv hotel room listening to explosions that are rattling the windows. Meanwhile, the White House is trying to cyber-bully me because I criticized Steve Witkoff for calling Putin a “humanitarian.” What a weird night. Ah, to be an American journalist in Ukraine.

The exact moment the sisters spotted their father inside the bus — the first time they’ve seen his face since two years ago when the girls fled Oleshky by foot. I will never forget this.

These sisters from Oleshky are hoping their father is on the coming buses of refugees from their hometown. They told me they’re hopeful but incredibly nervous he won’t arrive.

I just tried calling President Trump. He didn’t answer. If he had, I’d have asked if he’s trying to scare the Ukrainian people into surrender. No warning yet again tonight before a series of ballistic missile strikes on Kyiv, sources tell me. I heard at least 8-10 massive booms.

The Oleshky evacuees in Ukraine have loaded back onto the buses to Kyiv after filling up on World Central Kitchen food, hot coffee and receiving warm coats and blankets from volunteers. I don’t know if you believe in God, but I feel Him here.

Kabul's Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid tells Al Arabiya English that the organization doesn't "allow" the Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) to launch attacks on Pakistan from Afghanistan — but what are they actually doing about it?

The Afghan Taliban is the same group America fought for 20 years. Now Kabul is accused of harboring the TTP, Pakistan's enemy. Two groups, one alliance — and a region on edge.

I saw a tweet the other day arguing Pakistan should ease tensions with Afghanistan and India because Trump cut sanctions on Russia. Sure, talk. But will Kabul act against militants? What can Islamabad and New Delhi agree on? “Trump did it” answers neither.

Pakistan didn’t end the US-Iran war. But it helped get two enemies talking — and I was in Islamabad to watch it happen. On the latest The Correspondent Podcast: my UNGA week review — Trump, Iran, the Taliban and Ukraine — and why Pakistan’s mediation still matters.

Well, I started off yesterday talking about my newfound love of Pakistani music. Lucky me, I ended the day with live music last night at Islamabad’s highest point for a media event.
