'Protest everyone's right but minus Islamabad': Rana Sanaullah says 'practice' of marches to capital should end

Prime Minister’s Adviser on Political Affairs Rana Sanaullah contended on Saturday that everyone had a constitutional and legal right to protest, but Islamabad should be off-limits for demonstrations and urged people to “end the practice” of staging long marches and protests in the federal capital. PTI had been gearing up for a nationwide protest and march towards Islamabad to press for the release of its founder, Imran Khan, who is currently incarcerated in Rawalpindi’s Adiala jail. However, CM

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian:

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian: The Israeli regime, which has carried out the most brutal actions in Gaza and failed to force them to surrender, wants to make Iran, a country of 92 million people, surrender? Netanyahu deceived Trump by claiming that if Iran’s leader were targeted, the Iranian government would collapse.

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov:

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov: I am sure that life will teach our American partners to start thinking in terms of multilateralism, that they are not alone in this world, that they are not the only ones who represent economic power, military power, and, in general, an independent player on the international arena.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian:

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov:

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov: We have no intention of fighting Europe — this is nonsense and absurd. It is Europe that is preparing for war with us. Every day they confirm that, by 2030 at the latest, we Europeans must be ready for war. This, you know, could become a self-fulfilling prophecy, because they are now investing huge amounts of money in weapons production. Putin said: if they attack us, we won't hold back. And he added — it will be a completely different war, and it will be sh

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov on SDF:

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov on SDF: Every time Americans stopped supporting them, the Syrian Democratic Forces immediately turned to us: 'Help us.' We started helping. Then the Americans returned, and they lost interest in us. Damascus is not like the Ukrainian regime, which genuinely pursues its nationalist, Nazi views. They didn't ban the Kurdish language.

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov on Türkiye's S-400s and possible third-party transfers:

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov on Türkiye's S-400s and possible third-party transfers: There are a huge number of cases when Europeans around the world go around and purchase weapons from countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, in the Arab world, weapons that are guaranteed not to go anywhere else, but they still transfer all of this to Ukraine. We will be ready to transfer S-400s to such a country when there is a request that guarantees that such violations will not be allowed.

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov on Germany: Germany strives to become a Security Council member — persistently, I'd even say obsessively. Its chances are zero.

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov on Germany:

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov on Germany: Chancellor Merz says — and this was no slip, he repeated it several times — 'Our goal is to make Germany once again the main military force in Europe.' Does he understand the meaning of the word 'again' in that sentence?

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov:

Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov: Our Turkish friends know perfectly well that the S-400 systems were supplied under a contract that provides full respect for the end-user certificate. They know perfectly well that if they ever want to move these systems somewhere outside their borders, they cannot do so without our official consent. There has been no such request to us.

Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud:

Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud: The Kingdom rejects all attempts at displacement or changing the reality of the Palestinian land, and stresses that a just and lasting peace cannot be achieved except through implementing the two-state solution and establishing an independent Palestinian state on the 1967 borders and East Jerusalem as its capital.

Iceland's Foreign Minister Katrín Gunnarsdóttir:

Iceland's Foreign Minister Katrín Gunnarsdóttir: The suffering of Palestinian civilians cannot become a background noise. Children are still being killed. Families are still losing their homes and parents are still trying to keep their children alive again and again. We cannot accept Gaza being repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt while the underlying cause remains unresolved. And in the West Bank, illegal settlement activity continues to expand. Palestinian civilians face settler violence too

Iceland's Foreign Minister Katrín Gunnarsdóttir on Netanyahu: We have heard the words "moral cowards" from this podium. To me, moral cowards are those who refuse to sit down and negotiate just and lasting peace. Those leaders who deny access to humanitarian aid for people in desperate need. And moral cowards are those leaders of the world who repeatedly go against and disrespect international law. We must not allow the horrors in Ukraine and the Middle East to make other crises invisible.

Karrar Nabeel’s last-second winner gifts Iraq 3-2 win over Kuwait

When Youssef Nasser equalized for Kuwait in the 90th minute, Iraqi fans feared their team had fallen into the same trap as they had against Oman. Three days after taking an early lead before being held to a 1-1 draw, it seemed history would repeat itself on Saturday night. But substitute Karrar Nabeel had other ideas. A last-gasp long ball launched toward the box was headed by Aymen Hussein to Ahmed Yahya, who laid the ball off to Nabeel outside the box for a thunderous finish into the far corne

Putin constantly finds some kind of excuse not to meet, not to hold a trilateral format, not to talk, and not to end or stop these killings. Russia needs to develop a desire to spend money not on death, but on something else — to develop a desire there to end this war. In the coming days and in October, there will be a lot of diplomatic activity aimed at changing the situation. But in addition to this, the
