In a major breakthrough just days before the July 9 deadline, Pakistan and the United States have reached an understanding on a crucial trade and tariff agreement. Led by Commerce Secretary Jawad Paal, the Pakistani delegation held four days of negotiations in Washington aimed at avoiding the re-imposition of a 29% tariff on key exports like textiles and agricultural products.
While a formal announcement awaits the conclusion of similar talks with other U.S. partners, officials confirm that a broad framework has been agreed upon. The deal is expected to unlock access to the U.S. market, secure tariff relief, and attract potential American investment in Pakistanâs mining, energy, and infrastructure sectors â especially Reko Diq. The understanding also opens doors to cooperation with the U.S. Export-Import Bank. Both sides now look to reset strained economic ties dating back to the Trump-era tariff hikes, giving exporters and investors renewed confidence.

In a historic and controversial move, Russia has become the first nation to officially recognise the Taliban government in Afghanistan. The announcement was met with cautious optimism on the streets of Kabul, where many Afghans are now urging neighboring powers like Iran, Pakistan, and India to âchoose friendshipâ over continued conflict. Locals say the recognition brings hope for stability, economic revival, and an end to international isolation. âWar brings only destruction. We want peace and cooperation,â said Ahmad Zia Popal, a Kabul resident. The Taliban, still sanctioned by the West and condemned for its human rights recordâespecially on womenâs rightsâcalled Russiaâs decision âcourageousâ and a model for others. While global criticism looms, many ordinary Afghans see this as a turning point. Moscowâs move also raises geopolitical questions as it deepens its footprint in the region amid growing tensions with the West.

Rama Duwajiâartist, activist, and wife of NYC Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdaniâhas stepped into the spotlight after months of silence. The 27-year-old Syrian-American illustrator, known for her pro-Palestinian work, had avoided campaign publicity, sparking controversy and speculation. Critics claimed her art and political stance made her a liability.
But on June 24, as Mamdani celebrated his win, she stood beside himâsilent, composed, present. Born in Texas, raised partly in Dubai, Duwaji's work explores Gaza, race, identity, and dissent. Her pieces have supported Palestinian students and questioned U.S. policies. She and Mamdani met on a dating app, married in a private ceremony, and have since become one of NYCâs most-watched political couples. Now, as Mamdani eyes City Hall, all eyes are on Rama Duwajiâthe woman who may soon be NYCâs first lady.

Russiaâs diplomatic circle of friends: Taliban and North Korea in, Azerbaijan and Armenia out
As Russia became the first country to recognise the Taliban as the ruling government of Afghanistan, Moscow's long-standing ties with its traditional allies have been falling apart. Who are Moscow's ex-partners, and who are the new allies?Â

In a stunning geopolitical shift, Russia has become the first country to officially recognise the Taliban government in Afghanistan. Russian Ambassador Dmitry Zhirnov personally conveyed the recognition to Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi in Kabul, marking what Taliban leaders called a "new phase" in bilateral relations.
The Kremlin, now seeking to strengthen regional influence, sees commercial potential in Afghanistanâs energy, agriculture, and infrastructure sectors, despite global condemnation of the Taliban's human rights record. Since returning to power in 2021, the Taliban have faced international isolation for enforcing brutal Sharia laws and gender apartheid. Yet, Russia has maintained its embassy, signed economic deals, removed the Taliban from its terror list, and labeled them allies in the fight against extremism. As the West tightens sanctions, Russia's move could set a precedent for others considering formal engagement with Kabul's hardline rulers.

Suspects in the March 2024 Crocus City Hall massacre that killed 149 people have reportedly told Russian investigators that a Ukrainian state entity ordered the attack. According to interrogation transcripts cited by Russian media, the attackers â all Tajik nationals â said the assault was executed by ISIS-K but coordinated through a handler named "Saifullo" linked to Ukraine.
The suspects were allegedly promised $13,000 each and instructed to flee to Kiev after the attack. They claimed their weapons came from Ukraine, with operational guidance originating from TĂŒrkiye and Afghanistan. Ukraine has denied any role in the incident, though it has previously admitted to sabotage inside Russian territory. The attack, which also injured over 600 people, marks one of the deadliest in Russia in recent memory. Questions persist around the true orchestrators of the massacre and whether foreign intelligence or proxy actors were involved.
