Who will PAY the Price of Iran War? Podcast ft Farhan Mallick & Miftah Ismail

Deskripsi

In this episode of Raftar, we dive deep into the current political landscape of Pakistan in the light of recent Middle East events, focusing on the delicate and often controversial relations between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. We also explore key moments like the lack of acknowledgment for Pakistan's leadership during the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia's visit, the challenges Pakistan faces in dealing with its political and economic crises, and how a lack of proper diplomacy and leadership has affected Pakistan's position internationally. We also examine the personal dynamics and failures of key figures, including PM Shehbaz Sharif, and the real struggle Pakistan faces when it comes to foreign policy, such as LNG shortages, national debt, and power struggles. The podcast also highlights the ongoing political tensions and how the power balance is shifting in Pakistan, along with the changing dynamics in the Middle East.
