00:00 Welcome back.
00:03 Welcome back.
00:05 In the Faizabad Dharna Nazar-e-Sani case, the Supreme Court gave all the parties another chance.
00:12 The parties were asked for a written reply by October 27.
00:15 The ruling said that the lawyer who did not appear today should not appear in the hearing in the future.
00:21 The Attorney General should report on the court decision and the procedure.
00:24 The Chief Justice said that the decision should not be denied,
00:28 and that the decision should not be denied,
00:30 and that the decision should not be denied,
00:32 and that the decision should not be denied.
00:35 The Supreme Court heard the Faizabad Dharna Nazar-e-Sani case.
00:38 The Chief Justice, Qazi Faiz Issa, said that it is very interesting.
00:42 The people who should have filed the Nazar-e-Sani case, did not.
00:45 We wrote what was in front of us.
00:48 The court was wasted and the country was troubled.
00:52 Now you all are saying that we have to take back the request.
00:55 We were sitting that maybe we made a mistake in the decision.
00:59 The High Court of Islamabad, for the arrest of Shehryar Afridi,
01:02 after issuing an MPO order,
01:04 in the case of "Injustice to the Rights of the Oppressed",
01:07 has extended the unconstitutional pardon of DC Islamabad.
01:11 Justice Babasettan has revealed that Deputy Commissioner of Islamabad
01:14 is approaching me through family and friends.
01:17 And in Adiala Jail, Chairman PTI was transferred from B to C class.
01:21 The Jail Zarai says that in C class,
01:23 the former Prime Minister Shahid Khakha Nabassi was also imprisoned.
01:27 The Superintendent of the Jail says that
01:29 Chairman PTI is not in B class, but in the Security Ward.
01:32 He has better facilities.
01:34 Chairman PTI has been given a table, chair and bed.
01:38 The High Court of Islamabad has given permission to meet
01:44 the advocate of "Waiting for the Fifth" in the Jail.
01:47 We will know the details from Farooq Ejaz.
01:49 Yes, Farooq, please inform us.
01:51 Yes, absolutely.
01:52 The applicant of Chairman PTI,
01:53 on behalf of "Waiting for the Fifth",
01:54 has filed a request in the High Court of Islamabad,
01:56 in which a clause was prepared that
01:58 Chairman PTI should be allowed to meet.
02:00 So that he can meet Chairman PTI at a legal point.
02:04 This request has been made by the Chief Justice of Islamabad,
02:07 Amir Farooq, and he has given permission to meet
02:10 Chairman PTI in "Waiting for the Fifth".
02:14 A written statement has also been issued with this reference.
02:17 In the written statement, it is said that
02:19 according to the Jail Rules,
02:20 "Waiting for the Fifth" should meet Chairman PTI.
02:23 Thank you very much, Farooq Ejaz.
02:26 The Judicial Court has requested
02:28 Asif Ali Zardari and Yousuf Raza Gilani
02:30 to appear in the case of fake bank accounts and Tosha Khana
02:32 on 24th October.
02:34 The court has instructed Asif Zardari and Yousuf Raza Gilani
02:37 to appear in the case in their own capacity.
02:40 The Prime Minister, Anwar-ul-Haq Qaqar,
02:44 has denied any kind of injustice
02:46 to the political workers.
02:48 In an interview with Washington Post,
02:50 he said that the political workers were arrested
02:52 for illegal activities.
02:54 Some of them are involved in burning houses and breaking things.
02:58 For example, the attackers on Capitol Hill were brought to the police station.
03:01 Anwar-ul-Haq Qaqar has clarified that
03:03 in any country, illegal acts and illegal acts
03:06 are not allowed.
03:08 Pakistan is also expected to forgive such acts.
03:12 He further said that Pakistan is not a part of any camp
03:15 and will not be a part of the global powers' conspiracy.
03:18 Our focus is only on our national interests.
03:22 In the last 30 years,
03:24 West has been treating Pakistan unfairly.
03:26 Anwar-ul-Haq Qaqar said that
03:28 the offer of weapons to Ukraine by Pakistan is wrong.
03:33 China is our strategic partner
03:35 and our friendship has been tested.
03:38 The internal story of the London meeting of the Muslim League has come to light.
03:45 Two meetings of the Muslim League's leaders were held
03:48 in which the survey reports of Pakistan were examined.
03:51 According to the sources,
03:53 three survey reports were examined in the next elections.
03:56 Two of the reports were presented by Maryam Nawaz from Pakistan.
04:01 In all three survey reports,
04:03 the electoral position of the movement was declared better.
04:06 In the first two reports,
04:08 40-60% in Punjab and 45-55% in the third report.
04:12 To bring this balance,
04:14 the London League decided to make acceptable statements.
04:18 The League's leadership said that
04:21 Nawaz Sharif's return to India will be better in balance.
04:24 Journalist organizations have demanded
04:37 that all political parties should make freedom of expression
04:40 and the protection of journalists a part of their manifesto.
04:43 We will be back after a break.
04:45 Stay with us.
04:46 [Music]
04:52 We will now go to Islamabad
04:54 where Nigrah Wazir Khawaja Jalilabad Jilani is speaking to the media.

06:32 There were also think tank interactions of the Prime Minister,
06:36 one of which was his interaction with the Council on Foreign Relations.
06:43 Then he had a meeting with the US-Pakistan Business Council.
06:47 This is a very important business council of ours.
06:50 It has met with the heads of many American companies, corporations, and business ventures
06:59 that do business with Pakistan or have a presence here.
07:07 He also met with the delegation of the Association of Pakistani Physicians of North America,

07:26 He also met with the UN Secretary General.
07:31 I have also had many commitments there.
07:42 There is an annual coordination meeting of the OIC.
07:47 All the foreign ministers of the OIC attend the meeting.
07:55 The OIC talks about the future of the OIC and finalizes it.
08:04 Then there is an OIC contact group on Jammu and Kashmir,
08:09 which is a very important contact group for us.
08:14 All the foreign ministers and members of the OIC have expressed their support for our Muslim brothers in Kashmir.

10:02 I also had a media interaction with the TRT World, Al Jazeera and the UN Correspondent Association.
10:12 I also had a meeting with the Asia Society and the US-Pakistan Business Council for International Understanding.
10:24 This is a very important business forum, which was attended by the CEOs and members of the Council.
10:34 Their delegation will soon be in Pakistan.
10:37 The purpose was to get the attention of the US-Pakistan businessmen on Pakistan.
10:47 They were briefed on the Special Investment Facilitation Council, which was very exciting.
10:57 There was also a delegation of Pakistani-American businessmen, known as P-21.

12:45 He also talked about the climate commitment, and the need to create an annual fund.
13:03 The fund is worth $100 billion, and he stressed that 50% of that $100 billion can be spent on adaptation in the most affected countries.
13:24 This was a brief summary of what he said.
13:30 I thought I would brief you on these issues, and if you have any questions, I will be happy to answer them.
13:40 Thank you so much.
13:41 Thank you. Azad Syed.
13:43 Thank you very much, Mr. Foreign Minister.
13:49 Mr. Foreign Minister, when you were visiting the Prime Minister's home,
13:54 you noted another development between Saudi Arabia and Israel.
14:00 There were also reports that when Saudi Arabia accepts Israel,
14:07 seven Muslim countries will also accept Israel.
14:10 Have you made any deliberations with the Prime Minister regarding this?
14:15 What is the development in Pakistan regarding the acceptance of Israel?
14:21 I will tell you that there were also questions raised.
14:29 Our answer to this is very clear.
14:33 Our answer is that whatever decisions we make in Pakistan on any issue,
14:42 our national interests are at the forefront.
14:48 At this time, we do not have any such thoughts in Pakistan regarding Israel.
14:57 The reason for this is that when our Prime Minister's address was at the UN General Assembly,
15:05 or when I was at the Palestine OIC contact group,
15:11 I was also a member of it as a foreign minister of Pakistan.
15:18 We clarified in a very clear manner that the oppression and oppression
15:26 that the Kashmiris are facing by the Israeli army should end.
15:33 The Kashmiris should get their rights and their will,
15:39 and the Palestinians should get their rights and their will,
15:45 and the settlements that are being made there should be closed.
15:49 The issue of Palestine should be resolved according to the demands of the Palestinian people.
15:55 Pakistan wants the Kashmiris to have a free state according to the 1967 borders.
16:14 And the Al-Quds Al-Sharif should be Palestine's capital.
16:22 This was Pakistan's position, and Pakistan reiterated it there.
16:28 We also talked about this in the media interaction and in the UN General Assembly.
16:36 [Hindi]
16:57 Someone asked me if Pakistan would imitate the other countries that are in contact with them.
17:06 I said that we are not in the process of imitating them.
17:11 We look at our national interests.
17:14 Our position is based on imitation.
17:19 [Hindi]
17:24 [Hindi]
17:48 [Hindi]
17:58 Thank you, sir.
18:00 Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is in the news for many reasons.
18:05 But one relevant reason is that he was yesterday asked by his leader of the opposition
18:10 that he spent $1,000 million for going to New York, and what has he brought back?
18:18 So my question in that context is, which is a public question today here,
18:22 that why not many counterparts of the Prime Minister, they spare time for our delegation?
18:32 As you yourself very rightly pointed out that you had 20 bilateral meetings,
18:37 but we lacked the meeting with the head of the delegation over there.
18:44 My second question is, when you had meetings over there,
18:50 the Election Commission of Pakistan came with an announcement of January last week elections.
18:59 So how was the response in your meetings from different world leaders
19:03 who have been talking about elections in Pakistan? Thank you, sir.
19:08 [Hindi]
19:32 This was the most cost-effective way of conveying Pakistan's perspective
19:38 on some of the most important issues.
19:41 [Hindi]
20:00 [Hindi]
20:29 [Hindi]
20:30 [Hindi]
20:31 [Hindi]
20:33 [Hindi]
20:34 [Hindi]
20:35 [Hindi]
20:37 [Hindi]
20:39 [Hindi]
20:40 [Hindi]
20:41 [Hindi]
20:42 [Hindi]
20:44 [Hindi]
20:45 [Hindi]
20:46 I wanted to know what the need was for a caretaker set up in Pakistan.
20:51 In response to that I said that when a caretaker set up is carried out in Pakistan,
20:56 the developments in the world do not stop. They continue to move forward.
21:02 The view of Pakistan, whether it is a caretaker set up or an elected set up,
21:11 it remains a position that needs to be highlighted and conveyed.
21:15 For example, in bilateral meetings, a lot of things are agreed upon,
21:21 which are then followed up and given a concrete shape.
21:25 You spoke about elections.
21:29 It was a notional date that was announced by the Election Commission.
21:37 It had a positive impact on the elections in Pakistan.
21:45 This is the stance that the Pakistan delegation had also taken in bilateral consultations.
21:50 Irvashir Sir.
21:52 Thank you.
21:56 I want to ask, as we have seen in the past,
22:00 that an approach was developed on anti-Semitism in Europe.
22:05 Today we see that it has been pursued.
22:08 But we do not see any further loss of Jews there.
22:12 So, keeping Islamophobia in mind,
22:16 did you, Prime Minister, in your meetings,
22:18 give a narrative on a consistent policy to pursue something?
22:23 First, tell us this.
22:24 And secondly, tell us that all the state policies of Pakistan in the past,
22:29 in India, in Pakistan, in Pakistan-India relations,
22:32 and all the developments that have taken place,
22:35 keeping all this in mind,
22:36 how different was your approach this time and what did you achieve?
22:40 Thank you.
22:41 You asked a question about Islamophobia.
22:45 This was a very important issue,
22:48 not only for all Muslim countries,
22:52 which the Prime Minister and I discussed in our bilateral interactions,
22:58 but there was not only an OIC meeting,
23:02 but there was also a meeting of the Alliance of Civilization,
23:06 a UN-established group,
23:10 in which we discussed this issue.
23:13 A positive development in this was that all the countries,
23:19 whether they were Islamic countries or other countries,
23:23 condemned this issue, which is a wave of Islamophobia.
23:32 And secondly, it was emphasized that the United Nations took a big step in this regard.
23:39 The UN has also taken some steps in this regard.
23:43 For example, they declared 15th March as a UN Day for Islamophobia,
23:51 so that it is condemned all over the world.
23:54 Secondly, the important development of the interaction that took place there was that
24:04 Denmark has already introduced a bill in its parliament,
24:11 so that Islamophobia or burning of the Quran or other holy books is criminalized.
24:22 And secondly, while imitating Denmark,
24:27 many countries have also started thinking about how to make it a part of their system.
24:35 In the OIC meeting with the Secretary General,
24:41 OIC will take some steps in its session,
24:47 which will make the campaign against Islamophobia more active.
24:58 And a better understanding will be developed.
25:01 Anas Malik
25:02 My question is about the political impression that Pakistan has been in a state of loneliness in the past two years.
25:16 Did you see that impression there?
25:18 Secondly, what was the opinion of the people of Pakistan on the meeting you had with them?
25:26 I am a little surprised that Pakistan did not experience any isolation.
25:36 If I say that I met with about 20 foreign ministers,
25:42 there were a few foreign ministers for whom we requested to meet us.
25:49 But the majority of the foreign ministers expressed their desire to meet the foreign ministers of Pakistan.
25:58 The reason for this is that there is a special respect and respect in the international organization of Pakistan.
26:05 The diplomatic permanent representatives of our foreign office and other offices,
26:13 I think they are playing a very effective role.
26:16 Whether it is the OIC or the United Nations,
26:20 we have a very important role in any committee, whether it is a reform or anything else.
26:26 So that impression did not arise at all.
26:28 Secondly, Pakistan is a democratic country.
26:32 We do not have to worry about this at all.
26:38 Mr. Ejaz
26:44 Welcome back.
26:46 You have come back from America, otherwise people take a lot of time.
26:49 I want to know that the original position of Pakistan in terms of Palestine,
26:56 earlier it was said that we do not accept Israel, it is an illegitimate state.
27:01 But we saw in the previous government that there was a slight deviation,
27:05 Pakistan took the position of a two-state solution.
27:09 In your speech in the OIC, there was a two-state solution with the Palestinian government.
27:21 So tell me, isn't our original position a little deviated from that?
27:28 Secondly, I want to ask about Afghanistan.
27:30 You were at an important place.
27:32 Afghanistan's soil is being used against us.
27:36 You have the incident of Chitral, and other incidents of terrorism before that.
27:41 Our delegation also visited.
27:44 But Afghanistan repeatedly assures that Pakistan's land will not be used against it.
27:50 Now tell me, if this time it is against this promise,
27:54 then what will be Pakistan's reaction?
27:56 In what terms will we react?
28:03 I have made clear my position on Israel and on Palestine in two words,
28:12 that there is no change in our position.
28:15 I will reiterate that there is absolutely no change in Pakistan's foreign policy
28:21 as far as Palestine is concerned.
28:24 As I mentioned earlier, we have stood with the people of Palestine.
28:29 We are with them and we will continue to stand with them
28:33 until such time they get their right to self-determination
28:36 based on the pre-1967 borders,
28:41 an independent state which is according to the satisfaction of the Palestinian people.
28:47 Your second question is related to Afghanistan.
