SCO Summit - visa free to "Far East?" ; might soon become province of Luizi. More money if treated like Alaska, but perhaps, no need to buy (check history).
Thanks.

On August 9, 1945, the city of Nagasaki became the second target of a nuclear attack. 81 years later, we carry forward the memories of those lost, and the voices of Hibakusha so the world cannot forget the horrors of nuclear weapons.
Perhaps, US actions on Iran are doing service to unified Islamist, particularly OIC, reactions. In response to US continuing actions, e.g., resumption of bombing of more than world war proportion, the Gulf States and others would be targets again. Areal bombing has limitations.

Ang video na ito ay gawa ng China Daily — ang state-controlled media ng China.
Hindi ba’t nakakagalit na ang mismong bansang gumigipit sa ating mga karapatan sa West Philippine Sea ang siya pang may lakas ng loob na gumawa ng video na naglalarawan sa mga Pilipino bilang mga unggoy na basta na lamang sumusunod sa Japan at Estados Unidos?
Isang caricature lang ay iniyakan na nila — nagfile pa ng diplomatic protest dahil binastos ko raw ang kanilang lider. Ngunit dito, sa video na ito na mahigit isang minuto, ang binabastos at minamaliit ay ang ating pagka-PILIPINO mismo!
Naaalala ko tuloy ang ilang senador na nagsabing kailangan ko raw humingi ng tawad sa China. Ngayon kaya, sasabihin din ba nilang ang China naman ang dapat humingi ng tawad — dahil tayong mga Pilipino mismo ang binababoy ng video na ito?
Mga kababayang Pilipino hindi po tayo UNGGOY, at huwag tayong pumayag na gawing UNGGOY! Ang mga hayop lamang ang mga nakakagawa ng ganitong pagturing sa kapwa tao at mas masahol pa sa hayop ang hindi marunong sumunod sa international law!

🇵🇭 PH welcomes the adoption of the UN General Assembly resolution on the Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice on climate change. PH thanks @VanuatuUN for its principled leadership of the Core Group behind this historic initiative for climate justice.
“The rule of law matters most when the vulnerable need protection and when the consequences of inaction are irreversible. PH emphasized before the Court that climate change bears directly on international peace and security.”

Interesting - Prez Xi referred to Thucydides Trap --> +'l input to realism along others in fully appreciating issues and having firmer estimation of issues' evolution into the future. I guess other countries would have to deal with Iran; otherwise Chinese vessels could only ...

In this third week of the #NPTRevCon, as we work to build consensus on a final outcome, let us bring the best of diplomacy to bear.
Pressure won’t help. Engagement will. Blaming won’t help. Understanding will. Threat won’t help. Flexibility will.
Let’s get in done, together!

China should not talk about 'Environment Protection' after destroying over 20000 acres of Coral Reefs in South China Sea.
And, as if blasting Coral Reefs wasn't enough, Chinese militia even poisioned the Coral Reefs & fishing grounds with Cyanide!

Nuclear Futures Fellow @MagritteG presented @PSRnuclear / @IPPNW's statement at #NPTRevCon in New York City.
"There is no humanitarian response to any use of nuclear weapons," she said. Read the full statement ⬇️ psr.org/ippnw-statement-to-t…
Myterious explosions in Qeshm & Bandar Abbas. Not the doing of U.S. not Israel, not Iran. UAE? Playing the cards, including the OPEC quitting? Students of IR, with the pervasiveness and speed of "info" (fake, purposely distorted or otherwise) flowing digitally, are now facing ...
JCPOA, better. All types of enrichment, no more than 300 kg; accordingly, now estimate, Iran has 10,000 kg. Lifting of sanctions & unfreezing of funds, (were already included in JCPOA), inviting. Perhaps, if US is to clear the gulf of Oman of war assets first, as +'l icing.

Just like the #NPT, #TPNW requires states parties to, at a minimum, have comprehensive safeguards. TPNW reinforces constraints on proliferation and helps uphold the #nuclear taboo - South Africa #NPTRevCon MCI ROP

In the West Philippine Sea, one story connects everything: law, partnership, and people.
The 2016 Arbitral Award and UNCLOS define the Philippines’ lawful rights—not power politics, but a rules-based foundation recognized globally. These rights are reinforced through cooperation with partners, working together to keep sea lanes safe and uphold a stable, rules-based order.
Most importantly, this is about people—families in Pag-asa, Filipino fishers, and everyday presence at sea. This is where law and partnership come to life: in livelihood, community, and sovereignty.

Strange. Came to mind August 2014 when opposing sides help Pinoy UN peacekers had a successful daring escape after disobeying UN Golan Heights Commander to surrender to Al Nustra. Just glad some kind of diplomacy moving forward re war on Iran - including UN SC.
