🚨 India, Russia and China won’t let the US dominate Iran Pepe Escobar, speaking on the Judging Freedom podcast, delivered it straight: The reason is simple yet profound. Iran is not just another country — it is the indispensable crossroads of Eurasia, both ancient and modern. For centuries, Persian dynasties traded seamlessly with powers like China’s Tang dynasty across the old Silk Road. Today, that same geography makes Iran the vital artery of the new Eurasian trading system. Every major Belt and Road corridor from Xinjiang to the West passes through Iranian territory. The recently completed China-Iran railway is now operational, and a key dry port just 20 kilometres outside Tehran is already connecting vast trade networks. At the very heart of it all lies the International North-South Transportation Corridor, binding Russia, Iran and India together in a powerful trade route. This is no longer about ideology — it is the War of Connectivity Corridors, the defining geoeconomic contest of our time. With Iran as a full BRICS member, Russia, China and India all have a direct stake in keeping a strong, stable Iranian state. Their economies depend on it.The Americans and Israelis may have their plans, but the Eurasian giants have already made theirs clear.

Only the five countries with coastlines on the Caspian Sea—Russia, Iran, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan—are permitted to deploy military vessels or exploit its resources. This restriction is part of the legal framework established by the Convention on the Legal Status of the Caspian Sea, signed on August 12, 2018. These countries have exclusive rights to exploit the natural resources, including oil and gas, found in the seabed. Nations without a Caspian coastline are prohibited from accessing the sea for military purposes or resource exploitation. This legal arrangement aims to manage the strategic and economic interests of the bordering nations while preventing external military involvement in the region. The Caspian Sea's landlocked nature limits direct access for non-bordering countries, affecting trade, energy routes, and military presence, particularly impacting global powers like the U.S. and China. This restriction can influence regional security dynamics and economic strategies, as access to its resources and transit routes is controlled by the five littoral states.

Address by the Ambassador of Afghanistan to Pakistan H.E. Sardar Ahmad Shakeeb on the occasion of 5th Anniversary of Victory Day: بسم الله الرحمن الرحیم، It is my great pleasure to warmly welcome you all to this dignified gathering, held to commemorate the fifth anniversary of the end of the occupation of Afghanistan and the restoration of the country’s independence. On behalf of the Government and people of Afghanistan, as well as the Embassy of Afghanistan in Pakistan, I sincerely thank each and every one of you for accepting our invitation and honouring this important national occasion with your presence. Five years ago, on 15 August, the Afghan people opened a new chapter in their contemporary history. After more than four decades of war, foreign intervention, and immense suffering, Afghanistan once again took into its own hands the authority to determine its own future. Distinguished Guests, This day is not merely the anniversary of a political transformation; it also marks the beginning of a new chapter. We have left behind the chapter of war and embarked upon a new path—one in which Afghanistan, under unified leadership and within an Islamic system, is confidently moving toward the implementation of Islamic Sharia, strengthening its independent decision-making, consolidating lasting stability, pursuing reconstruction and economic growth, and expanding relations with the international community on the basis of mutual respect. We are confident that this new chapter and the strengthened peace in Afghanistan are not only in the interest of the Afghan people, but also serve the shared interests and needs of the region and the wider world. A peaceful and stable Afghanistan creates significant opportunities for regional connectivity, economic cooperation, and collective security, and can play a constructive role in strengthening peace and prosperity across the region. Our region is among the most promising parts of the world in terms of its potential for growth, connectivity, and economic cooperation. If we manage our shared geographic advantages wisely, Afghanistan can play its historic role as a natural bridge between Central and South Asia, opening new opportunities for trade, transit, investment, and energy cooperation. We firmly believe that the stability of Afghanistan is inseparable from the stability of the region, and the prosperity of the region is closely linked to the prosperity of Afghanistan. Ladies and Gentlemen, In Afghanistan’s foreign policy vision, our neighbours hold the first and most important place. Geography has made us neighbours, but our shared history, common faith and culture, centuries-old trade relations, and the family and social ties connecting millions of people have created bonds between us that cannot be easily separated. These deep ties call for mutual respect, shared interests, and a shared commitment to our common future. For this reason, we do not view our neighbours merely as countries of the region; rather, we consider them natural partners in our shared future prosperity. Based on this vision, Afghanistan seeks relations with all its neighbours, particularly Pakistan, founded on mutual respect, equality of sovereignty, non-interference in each other’s internal affairs, and the pursuit of shared interests. We believe that an atmosphere of trust cannot be created through pressure or force. It can only be built through understanding, sustained dialogue, and sincere cooperation. These are principles that are fully consistent with the guidance of Islamic Sharia, the directives of His Excellency the Amir-ul-Momineen, the accepted principles of international relations, and the enduring values of good neighbourly relations. Distinguished Guests, History has shown us that occasional differences between neighbouring countries are natural. However, such differences should not become a reason for greater distance. Rather, during times of disagreement, the path of dialogue, mutual respect, and political wisdom should be pursued. We believe that every challenge, when addressed with sincerity and goodwill, can become a new opportunity to build trust and expand cooperation. This perspective forms the foundation of Afghanistan’s relations with its neighbours and guides our approach to regional affairs. In our view, lasting and sustainable security can only be achieved when there is a shared commitment to mutual trust, sincere cooperation, practical coordination, and respect for each other’s legitimate concerns. The stronger the trust between us, the stronger the foundations of peace, stability, and prosperity throughout our region will become. Afghanistan does not pursue a policy of confrontation, nor does it allow its territory to be used against the security and stability of any other country. In the same spirit, we hope and remain confident that Afghanistan’s legitimate security concerns will be understood and respected, and that no country will allow its territory to be used against Afghanistan. We stand ready to further strengthen practical and constructive cooperation with our neighbours on the basis of these principles. Our vision is clear: an Afghanistan that is not a field for geopolitical competition, but a bridge for regional connectivity, trade, transit, dialogue, and cooperation. Distinguished Guests, Finally, on this historic occasion marking the anniversary of the Victory, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all of you for your distinguished presence and participation. For us, your presence is a reflection of respect, friendship, and mutual goodwill. We pray that Almighty Allah guides our country, our region, and the entire world toward success, peace, stability, and prosperity. Ameen. والله ولي التوفيق. والسلام علیکم ورحمة الله وبرکاته

“China is the big prize. China will be the final goal of this whole regime change process which started after 9/11.” With this warning, Hussein Askary (Hussein Askary) of the Belt & Road Institute in Sweden frames today’s global tensions as part of a long-term Western strategy to preserve a fading unipolar order by suppressing the rise of a multipolar world led by China, Russia, and the Global South. Askary argues that Iran is now the central battleground in this struggle—not because of its nuclear program, but because of its pivotal role in the emerging economic and strategic architecture. Iran has entrenched itself in China’s Belt and Road Initiative, joined BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and expanded its regional influence despite decades of sanctions. These developments, he contends, cast Iran as a strategic threat to Western hegemony. He claims that the U.S., Britain, and Israel—backed by powerful intelligence networks and financial elites—have little interest in peace or stability in West Asia. Their strategy, he says, is to generate sustained instability in regions like the Middle East to block the rise of competing powers. While leaders like Netanyahu aim to eliminate regional rivals, Anglo-American strategists see Iran as the last remaining independent actor in what some Western planners label the “black curse.” The broader goal, according to Askary, is regime change in Iran, its fragmentation along ethnic lines, and a chain of destabilization extending through Pakistan, Central Asia, and Russia—culminating in an effort to contain or dismantle China’s global influence. Unless this agenda is stopped, Askary warns, it could spiral into global confrontation—even thermonuclear war.

Economist Hussein Askary says the latest U.S strikes didn't just hit an Iranian railway, they struck China's New Silk Road. He said that specific railway is one of the key arteries linking China to Central Asia, Iran, and, ultimately, the wider Middle East. A modern version of the ancient Silk Road, the physical backbone of China's vision for the region. Hussein believes the strike was symbolic: a warning that countries betting their future on China's Belt and Road Initiative should understand there may be a price for doing so. And what he thinks comes after it is even more concerning. Trump promised to end America's endless wars, but Washington still has no vision for what peace actually looks like, whereas China does. Railways, ports, industrial zones, manufacturing, energy projects, technology transfers, and long-term investment. While the U.S is trying to shape the region through military power, China understands economic integration is a much stronger force. Hussein pointed to China's role in helping bring Saudi and Iran back to the negotiating table, the rapid expansion of industrial cooperation across the Gulf, and the growing network of transport corridors connecting the region to Asia. In his view, those projects are changing the Middle East far more profoundly than most headlines suggest. That's also why he thinks this war is about far more than Iran; it's about who gets to shape the next economic map of Eurasia. His argument is that the old model, export oil, import everything else, and depend on American military protection, is steadily giving way to something different. Countries across the region are trying to build industries instead of simply exporting raw materials. And they're increasingly looking to the east as well as the west.

My friends and I confronted anti-China hawk and Richie Torres advisor Matt Pottinger at an Asia Society event. While Pottinger proposes dismantling China-U.S. relations and separating Taiwan from China (which will end up in WW3), I proposed instead that the U.S. and China are not enemies and should join hands in the Belt and Road Initiative to promote peace and economic development. For this, I was thrown to the ground and choked by security. It's no wonder Ritchie Torres is such an idiot when he's surrounded by Neo-con spooks who get paid to lie. For some background on who Pottinger is: Matt Pottinger has been a significant voice in the concerted effort to derail relations between the United States and China for the past 20 years. He began his career as a journalist in the late 1990s reporting for the Wall Street Journal on Chinese affairs. He then joined the U.S. Marine Corps, fighting three separate deployments in Afghanistan and Iraq between 2007 and 2010. Eventually, he would serve the White House for four years on the National Security Council Staff, including as deputy national security adviser to President Trump from 2019 to 2021, leading the administration’s work as the Senior Director for Asia. In 2017, Pottinger had led a special delegation from the U.S. to the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation in Beijing, where President Xi Jinping had proposed building a world of prosperity through the construction of massive infrastructure projects, defeating poverty, and mutual technological advancement. The Belt and Road Initiative has been integrated with the Eurasian Economic Union, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and ASEAN, and represents a new platform for economic development among the nations of the Global South in an emerging multipolar world which prioritizes mutual benefit and cooperation. Instead of proposing that the U.S. take the opportunity to join the Belt and Road, which President Xi has made clear is open to the West to join, Pottinger has been a consistent provocateur in rapturing U.S.-China relations. In a Wall Street Journal op-ed published on March 26, 2021, “Beijing Targets American Business,” Pottinger says that American businessmen must realize that the “ideological dimension of the competition” between China and the United States “is inescapable, even central.” Protecting U.S. hegemony and preventing China’s economic growth, “will require America and its allies to consider in every policy we adopt, every bill we introduce, and every partnership that government and industry undertake, whether it increases our collective leverage in this competition or surrenders leverage to a hostile dictatorship in Beijing.” It’s no wonder that Rep. Ritchie Torres is advised on China policy by Pottinger himself. Torres is a member of the House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party, which Pottinger has briefed and advised on policy. Both Torres and Pottinger believe in “the end of history” as author Francis Fukuyama famously declared at the end of the Cold War. This meant, that the U.S. and its Transatlantic partners would dominate the world and create a unipolar world, in which any potential power that would rise and present an alternative to the “rules-based order” would need to be stopped at all costs. Out of this theory that has guided U.S. policy since the first Bush administration, we have produced endless interventionist wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Somalia, Yemen, and Ukraine. Of course, Pottinger has expressed his willingness to extend that our adventurist military policy to Taiwan, to provoke a global war with China. Such a policy is not in the American people’s interest. The U.S. economy is now decimated from 50+ years of deindustrialization and idiotic “Green” policy that has eaten up our once productive industries. China has taken the opposite path and is proposing to extend their prosperity to other nations in Africa, South America, and Asia. Instead of creating more wars to defend our hopeless imperial endeavors, we should return to our forgotten anti-colonial roots, and create a new security and development architecture with China and other willing partners.

JUST IN: Tanzania has officially integrated the Port of Dar es Salaam with the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) network, directly linking the port to the inland logistics hubs of Nala Dry Port in Dodoma and Kwala Dry Port in the Coast Region. The new connection is expected to accelerate cargo movement by up to 80% compared to transit timelines currently experienced across competing regional trade corridors. The country’s long-term logistics strategy aims to position Dar es Salaam as the fastest and most efficient maritime gateway in East and Central Africa. By 2028, the SGR line is expected to extend to Isaka Dry Port in Shinyanga, while full rail connectivity to the borders of Rwanda and Burundi is targeted by 2030. Once completed, Tanzania intends for transit cargo moving through Dar Port to reach destinations across the East African Community (EAC) corridor in less than 48 hours. The transformation follows more than $1 Billion in modernization and expansion investments at Dar es Salaam Port led by DP World. As a result, annual cargo throughput capacity has now increased from a minimum of 27.7 million tonnes toward a projected 50 million tonnes. Performance figures for the 2025/26 financial year already indicate strong growth momentum across the port ecosystem. Container volumes surged by 55%, roll-on/roll-off (RORO) traffic increased by 20%, general cargo rose by 25%, while dry bulk cargo expanded by 22%.

Nigeria Set to Build Africa’s First Underwater Tunnel President Bola Ahmed Tinubu continues to redefine Nigeria’s infrastructure landscape with another bold and historic initiative, the construction of Africa’s first underwater tunnel. This groundbreaking project, announced by the Federal Ministry of Works under Engr. David Umahi will connect Ahmadu Bello Way on Victoria Island through Snake Island to the Badagry corridor. The tunnel, estimated at 2.9 to 3.5 kilometres in length, represents a major leap in engineering innovation and urban connectivity, a feat never before attempted on the continent. The proposed tunnel is more than a piece of infrastructure; it is a symbol of President Tinubu’s unwavering commitment to modernization and national transformation. Just as he turned Lagos into West Africa’s economic hub during his time as governor, PBAT is now extending that same visionary leadership to the entire nation. By linking the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway with the Sokoto–Badagry Superhighway, this project will not only ease transportation but also connect northern and southern Nigeria in ways that will supercharge trade, tourism, and industrial growth. This initiative perfectly aligns with the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda, a roadmap for prosperity anchored on innovation, infrastructure, and inclusive economic growth. With this project, PBAT is proving that Nigeria can dream big and execute world-class developments. The tunnel will decongest Lagos traffic, boost marine and logistics efficiency, and improve access to key economic zones like the Lekki Deep Sea Port, Snake Island, and the Badagry Free Trade Area. Each of these nodes will drive investment, create jobs, and position Nigeria as a leading player in Africa’s blue economy. Critics often talk, but PBAT acts. While others debate or recycle slogans, this administration is turning ambitious ideas into tangible realities from roads, rails, ports, and now, an underwater tunnel. It’s a clear testament that leadership is not about noise but about results. This project stands as another reminder that under PBAT, Nigeria is no longer waiting for the world to bring development; Nigeria is building it with its own hands, technology, and courage. In every sense, the proposed underwater tunnel is a legacy in motion, one that will outlive this administration and transform Nigeria’s infrastructural identity. From Lagos to Badagry, from north to south, President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope is no longer a slogan; it’s a visible revolution taking shape under the ground and across the nation. With bold projects like this, PBAT is not just connecting roads, he’s connecting dreams, people, and the promise of a stronger, more united Nigeria.

The tunnel, estimated at 2.9 to 3.5 kilometres in length, represents a major leap in engineering innovation and urban connectivity, a feat never before attempted on the continent. The proposed tunnel is more than a piece of infrastructure; it is a symbol of President Tinubu’s unwavering commitment to modernization and national transformation. Just as he turned Lagos into West Africa’s economic hub during his time as governor, PBAT is now extending that same visionary leadership to the entire nation. By linking the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway with the Sokoto–Badagry Superhighway, this project will not only ease transportation but also connect northern and southern Nigeria in ways that will supercharge trade, tourism, and industrial growth. This initiative perfectly aligns with the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda, a roadmap for prosperity anchored on innovation, infrastructure, and inclusive economic growth. With this project, PBAT is proving that Nigeria can dream big and execute world-class developments. The tunnel will decongest Lagos traffic, boost marine and logistics efficiency, and improve access to key economic zones like the Lekki Deep Sea Port, Snake Island, and the Badagry Free Trade Area. Each of these nodes will drive investment, create jobs, and position Nigeria as a leading player in Africa’s blue economy. Critics often talk, but PBAT acts. While others debate or recycle slogans, this administration is turning ambitious ideas into tangible realities from roads, rails, ports, and now, an underwater tunnel. It’s a clear testament that leadership is not about noise but about results. This project stands as another reminder that under PBAT, Nigeria is no longer waiting for the world to bring development; Nigeria is building it with its own hands, technology, and courage. In every sense, the proposed underwater tunnel is a legacy in motion, one that will outlive this administration and transform Nigeria’s infrastructural identity. From Lagos to Badagry, from north to south, President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope is no longer a slogan; it’s a visible revolution taking shape under the ground and across the nation. With bold projects like this, PBAT is not just connecting roads, he’s connecting dreams, people, and the promise of a stronger, more united Nigeria.

When President Trump talks about a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz as a way to "kill Iran's economy," we need to remember who stands behind Iran's resilience. Above all, it is China, and not only as a buyer of oil, but as a strategic partner that benefits from Iran remaining a destabilizing force in the Middle East. Russia, of course, as well, but Russia is bogged down in Ukraine. Iran is a tool. For China, Iran serves one simple purpose: to keep the Middle East in a state of chronic instability, which costs the US money, attention, and reputation. ◾️ First, the Iran war is pulling American potential away from Asia right now. The US has deployed the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group, two destroyers, two naval task forces, and Patriot and THAAD systems to the Middle East, depleting its stockpile of Tomahawk cruise missiles, which are critical for a potential Taiwan scenario. ◾️ Second, the crisis translates into a blow to the American authority and concessions. Every Middle Eastern war weakens the trust of Asian allies in the United States. Japan and South Korea are already experiencing delays in deliveries of ordered US weapons. Taiwan is watching as Washington trades off its security for the sake of a summit with Beijing: Trump delayed a multi-billion-dollar arms package to Taiwan so as not to jeopardize the summit with President Xi. ◾️ Third, China is the sole beneficiary of the oil blockade of Iran. Despite sanctions, Iran earned $54 billion in 2022 and $53 billion in 2023. Where does this oil go? To China. More than 90% of Iranian oil exports are absorbed by the Chinese market, primarily through networks of small independent oil refineries in Shandong province. The scheme is worked out down to the last detail. Iranian tankers turn off their transponders, transfer oil "ship-to-ship" off the coast of Malaysia, relabel the cargo as Malaysian or Indonesian, and settle payments in yuan through small banks outside the dollar infrastructure. In 2025, these shadow tankers made over 1,500 voyages from Iran to China. ◾️ Fourth, Iran is increasingly serving as a testing ground for China's indirect military-technical support. According to US officials, the Chinese company SMIC supplied Iranian military structures with equipment for chip production and, likely, technical training. Ships carrying sodium perchlorate - a key component of solid rocket fuel - were set to depart from Chinese ports. Iran was also nearing a deal to purchase Chinese CM-302 supersonic anti-ship missiles, which pose a direct threat to US ships in the Gulf. And US intelligence is now recording possible preparations to transfer MANPADS to Iran via third countries. Some claims regarding deeper support, particularly concerning BeiDou and Chinese air defense systems, remain disputed, but the overall direction is clear: China is helping Iran not only survive under pressure but also raise the cost of the US military presence in the region. Therefore, a US blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is not pointless in terms of pressuring Iran, as it could physically cut off a significant portion of exports that ultimately go to China. But it is a crude instrument: it hurts not only Iran and China, but the entire energy system of the region, global prices, and US allies. That is precisely why this move is both powerful and strategically toxic.

I was honored to be invited by the President of Somaliland to attend his inauguration on the 12th of December 2024. The event, which brought together hundreds of attendees, including diplomats, political leaders from neighboring countries, and citizens of Somaliland, was truly remarkable. The newly elected President's speech emphasized his commitment to dialogue and the importance of fostering social cohesion within Somaliland. I would like to share my experience in Somaliland, especially for those who have never visited 1. *Hargeisa:Hargeisa’s Peace and Vibrancy* Hargeisa is a peaceful city where people go about their lives with focus and purpose. The city is bustling with commercial activities, and it is clear that the residents are optimistic about the future. During my visit, I witnessed a strong community spirit and a collective determination to transform the economy. 2. Somaliland’s Investment Potentia l My visit to Berbera showcased the transformative power of investment. The development of Berbera Port by DP World has injected substantial capital into the region, making it one of the largest and most efficient ports in the Horn of Africa. The port handles millions of metric tonnes of goods and has completely revitalized the city, opening up vast economic opportunities. Opportunities for Local and International Investors Somaliland is primed for investment, not just from its diaspora but also from the international community. The region's strategic location and stability make it an ideal destination for business. 2. Untapped Regional Markets There is immense potential for investment in manufacturing, given the untapped markets in neighboring countries such as Ethiopia, Yemen, Eritrea, Djibouti, and Oman. With the right infrastructure, Somaliland can become a hub for trade and industry in the region. 4. Hospitality and Tourism Growth The people of Somaliland are incredibly hospitable, which creates opportunities for growth in the hospitality sector. Towns like Hargeisa have the potential to become international conference destinations, further boosting tourism and economic activity. Somaliland offers a unique blend of peace, opportunity, and optimism, making it an attractive destination for those seeking to explore its vast potential.

Full Speech of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s National Statement at the 80th UN General Assembly Delivered by Vice President Kashim Shettima. Key Points: 1. Commitment to Multilateralism: Nigeria reaffirms its faith in the United Nations as a vital platform for global unity, born from the need to prevent chaos and promote humanity’s redemption. The UN must evolve to remain relevant in a rapidly changing world. 2. Call for UN Security Council Reform: Nigeria demands a permanent seat on the UN Security Council, reflecting its population (over 236 million), regional stabilizing role, and contributions to global peacekeeping. This is part of a broader push for UN institutional reform to enhance fairness and representation. 3. Sovereign Debt Relief and Trade Access: Nigeria advocates for urgent action on debt relief and fair access to trade and finance, proposing an international mechanism to manage sovereign debt, enabling emerging economies to move beyond raw material exports and foster growth. 4. Mineral Wealth for Host Nations: Countries rich in critical minerals, like Nigeria, must benefit through local processing, investment, and job creation to reduce conflict and promote stability, drawing from Nigeria’s experience in the Niger Delta. 5. Closing the Digital Divide: Nigeria calls for a global initiative to bridge the digital gap, ensuring equitable access to technology, particularly for Africa, to harness opportunities and address challenges like misinformation and cynicism. 6. Peace and Human Rights: Nigeria emphasizes a two-state solution for Palestine, condemns violence in Gaza and Qatar, and underscores the importance of civilized values, tolerance, and multilateral efforts to resolve conflicts. It supports democratic institutions regionally and globally. 7. Climate and Economic Challenges: Climate change is framed as a security and migration issue, requiring efficient use of climate funds for education, resilient housing, and technology access. Nigeria’s economic reforms aim to promote growth despite hardships, as seen in the success of the West Africa Economic Summit. 8. Peacekeeping Legacy: Nigeria highlights its extensive participation in UN peacekeeping (51 of 60 operations since 1960) and its ongoing fight against insurgency, emphasizing that lasting peace requires values and ideas, not just military action.
