The recent uranium supply agreement between Canada and India, worth around CAD 2.6 billion, has drawn sharp criticism for undermining global nuclear non-proliferation rules. Signed during Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s visit to India, the deal allows Canadian firm Cameco to provide nearly 22 million pounds of uranium ore concentrate to India’s Department of Atomic Energy between 2027 and 2035. This pact forms part of wider cooperation in clean energy, critical minerals, and strategic partnerships, including wind, solar, hydrogen, and electric vehicles. Supporters highlight benefits for bilateral trade, India’s nuclear energy expansion, and shared climate goals, such as Canada’s aim…

Indian Ocean turned red with Iranian blood. On March 4, 2026, a US submarine fired a torpedo at the peaceful Iranian frigate IRIS Dena. The ship was sailing home in international waters, 44 nautical miles off Sri Lanka. No warning. No fight. Just a sudden explosion. The proud Iranian warship broke apart and sank fast. Sri Lankan rescuers pulled 32 injured sailors from the cold sea. They recovered 87 dead bodies. More than 60 brave Iranian sailors are still missing. This was cold-blooded murder at sea. The facts are shocking and clear. The IRIS Dena had just finished India’s big…

As the dust settles, or rather, as it continues to rise, from the U.S.-Israeli airstrikes on Iran that began on February 28, 2026, the world watches a conflict that risks reshaping the Middle East yet again. Israel’s declared aim, echoed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in direct appeals to the Iranian people, is nothing short of regime change: the toppling of the Islamic Republic to neutralize what it perceives as an existential threat. This ambition, rooted in decades of animosity, seeks to dismantle Iran’s nuclear program, sever its support for regional allies like Hezbollah and Hamas, and pave the way…

The assassination of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in a joint US-Israeli airstrike on February 28, 2026, is not a triumph of security but a brazen violation of international law and sovereignty. Confirmed by Iranian state media and mourned nationwide with a declared 40-day period of grief, the 86-year-old leader, along with about 40 senior officials, was targeted in his Tehran compound during what Israel described as a “precise” operation guided by intelligence. This unprovoked attack, part of Operation Epic Fury (US) and Roaring Lion (Israel), has ignited a wider conflict, yet it has only unified Iranians in defense…

The Middle East remains in a state of heightened alert following the latest round of indirect nuclear negotiations between the United States and Iran, held in Geneva on February 26, 2026. Mediated by Oman, the talks concluded without a final agreement, though participants described elements of progress. This development occurs against the backdrop of a significant US military presence in the region, defensive measures in Israel, and precautionary advisories from several countries, including China. Status of Nuclear Negotiations The discussions focused primarily on constraints to Iran’s nuclear program, including uranium enrichment levels, facility status, and verification by the International Atomic…

Much has been reported around the world about the prosecution of four journalists in Pakistan following the May 2023 riots. Many foreign commentators have wrongly and quickly concluded that it is an assault on freedom of the press. However, this account of events misses an important point. It was not an issue of silencing criticism. It was a matter of a country that was facing extreme violence and instability. After the arrest of former Prime Minister Imran Khan in May 2023, things did not remain peaceful for long. There was a sudden escalation of events. Government buildings and military bases…
