#MargallaDialogue25 | #IPRI #AmbassadorInamulHaque, Former Foreign Minister & Chairman Board of Governors, IPRI "During these years, the system has been undergoing the metamorphosis and by now the principles of law or international law or norms of behaviour which were established in 1945 have been upended, ignored or openly flouted both in the political and as well as the economical area." youtube.com/live/X7smeRuKP0s…

#MargallaDialogue25 | #IPRI #AmbassadorInamulHaque, Former Foreign Minister & Chairman Board of Governors, IPRI, "G2 is a term which has been in use for a number of years referring to a condominium between the Americans and the Chinese to control the rest of the world. But is China willing to become a member of the G2? If you ask Professor Gaun, China will refuse to become a member of the G2. It wants the GW — Group of the World, but what will in effect emerge over the years as we have seen, democracy is on the retreat in many democratic countries as well and authoritarian rulers have emerged in these major countries of the world." youtube.com/live/X7smeRuKP0s…

#MargallaDialogue25|#IPRI #DrFarhanHanifSiddiqi, Professor, @ibakhiofficial, "How can we define who a Pakistani is? If I say a Pakistani is a person who speaks Urdu, or that a Pakistani is a person who professes Islam, a problem immediately arises. Urdu as a mother language is spoken by only nine percent of the population. If I define a Pakistani as someone whose mother tongue is Urdu, I exclude ninety-one percent of the people. If I define Pakistanis solely as Muslims, then what about the minorities; the Christians, Sikhs, and Hindus? who are an integral part of our social fabric? Do they not fall under the ambit of being Pakistani? The answer to the question of who a Pakistani is requires that we open ourselves to the differences within our socio-political fabric. It is to recognise this diversity and to accept this diversity." youtube.com/live/T_4A3fiBWes…
