Pakistan has deftly leveraged the moment by building the room for peace, which is almost never a linear process. It is up to the two key adversaries to use that room to optimal advantage, and for us to read that room. Islamabad also has pivotal relationships across the Gulf region and beyond, that enable several conversations to manage risk in an increasingly complex century. Bloomberg TV today ☕️

Amazing grace by Bilawal Bhutto Zardari in this "quarrelsome interview" with a constantly interrupting Karan Thapar. He didn't lose his cool or poise for one minute, despite the hectoring anchor with a single point agenda. The full interview is YouTube

Pakistan's response in downing 5 Indian jets to India's spectacular overconfidence was measured, precise and restrained. India launched over 75 jets for what exactly on the night of May 7? Bombing innocent civilians in a premeditated act of terror? This is behaviour matched only by the Weimar Republic when they were carpet-bombing Dresden or London. Al Arabiya English

Watch the whole reel for a masterclass in mature diplomacy👇🏼 "Pakistan has been home to the largest number of terrorist attacks in the world. My mother Shaheed Benazir Bhutto, was martyred facing down terrorists while challenging them. Thousands of innocent civilians have been martyred and even more of Pakistan's soldiers have grown up watching their colleagues be martyred at the hands of terrorists." Bilawal Bhutto Zardari at the United Nations bringing home the real story of terrorism in a magisterial press conference in New York as he unpacks in detail the whole 87 hour war as India relates unproven, unprovoked terrorism charges to a dangerous war that it chose to escalate. #PakistanDelegation

Important discussions with Human Rights Commission of Pakistan today with Secretary General Haaris Khalique and WAF senior leader Nasreen Azhar at the HRCP office. Nayyar Bokhari and myself offered the Pakistan Peoples Party - PPP point of view on the constitutional courts and our position with federalism as our core priorities. Parliament must work to protect democracy, and must do so with as much inclusivity as possible.

As I chaired the #climate panel for the Commonwealth Asia session today a fun anecdote that few know about the Benazir Income Support Programme came to mind as a UN rep asked how one begins the long mile to “ leaving no one behind”. It begins by empowering #women as the Pakistan Peoples Party - PPP believes, and here I share a story about the pivotal importance of leadership commitment in a mtg in 2008 when we encountered stiff resistance to rolling out this key manifesto promise to women in cabinet committee. There was less resistance in 2022 when Bilawal Bhutto Zardari wanted to build post-flood resilience housing that conferred land ownership rights to the women of the beneficiary households, but both programs proved transformational interventions in making women at the bottom of the social pyramid registered citizens with agency, land rights and incomes. This is how you do it.

PM Modi’s speech is nasty, brutish and frought with hatred. It is reflective of the "New Abnormal"; a doctrine of Hindutva supremacism and perpetual war he seeks to impose on South Asia. Also, he is seeking to change the headline on the war he did not win. Pakistan 🇵🇰 has no interest in war, but Mr Modi should not mistake that for weakness. #HindutvaRepublic

Suspending a water treaty that adjudicates trans boundary water is an act of war which is both provocative and illegal. We cannot accept that. In an era defined by climate change and water insecurity how is it ok to do that? More 👇🏼 BilawalBhuttoZardari on the #IndusWaterTreaty United Nations

The flooding in Islamabad’s historic Saidpur village after 157mm of rain is not just a monsoon or "natural disaster" event—it’s a calamity where we colluded to ignore the very real impacts of climate change by unchecked development. Flash floods swept away cars and motorbikes as illegal constructions choked the natural nullah flowing from the Margalla Hills. This is what happens when we block nature’s course with concrete and complacency. Climate change intensifies the rain, but poor planning and unchecked encroachments turn it into devastation. #urbanflooding #saidpur

The #ShishperGlacier in Gilgit-Baltistan is melting at a dangerously rapid pace — a stark reminder of how global warming and rising high-altitude temperatures are reshaping our mountains. Once a stable, enduring ice mass, Shishper has grown increasingly unstable in recent years, unleashing frequent Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs) that endanger lives, destroy infrastructure, and wipe out livelihoods downstream. This accelerated melt is not just a local crisis — it is a clear signal of the escalating threats facing mountain communities across the region and the world, and a call for urgent, targeted climate adaptation in Gilgit-Baltistan. Just last week, a #GLOF from Shishper swelled the Hassanabad Nullah in Hunza, damaging newly built retaining walls, eroding farmland, and washing away a section of the Karakoram Highway. While traffic remains open, the damaged stretch is sealed, and dozens of mountainside homes remain at risk. According to @UNDPPakistan the country has 3,044 glacial lakes, with 33 identified as dangerous — threatening 2 million people downstream, including 800,000 mountain residents in immediate danger. These #glaciers feed the Indus River — Pakistan’s lifeline — which provides 90% of our water for food production. Yet today, the Indus is the world’s 2nd most polluted river, with 40% of its solid waste being plastic. We have already lost 16% of glacier mass in the Indus headwaters in just 5 years. Without urgent action, experts warn the Indus could be reduced to a seasonal river by 2050, collapsing ecosystems, food systems, and millions of livelihoods. Pakistan is ranked the most climate-vulnerable country in the #Climate Risk Index 2025. If we do not act with urgency — and if we do not strengthen our own adaptation and resilience — GLOFs will become much more frequent and more deadly, sweeping away roads, homes, and farmland in matter of minutes and hours. #GLOFs #shisperglacier #GB
