Is Ukraine the only problem?

Faris Khaliq
International media portrays Russia as a country that does not want Ukraine to join NATO in any way. That is why the Russian government is exerting pressure on Ukraine. Yet, in the past, the same Ukrainian states that have been in revolt against the government’s accession to NATO had eye-to-eye talk with the United States. In addition, what has NATO done with its allied forces in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Yemen? The U.N. sees Russia’s intervention in Ukraine, but why do we not see Israeli bullying in Palestine and Indian bullying in Kashmir? World economies and social structures will be adversely impacted by this war. Inflation will rise, trade travel will be blocked, and third-world countries will be destabilized. As long as the United Nations and the United States do not stop this bullying, there will always be cases like these, and dirty politics will always be impacting the world. In a two-day visit, Pakistan’s Prime Minister arrived for the first time in Russia. In his meetings with Putin, he is also set to discuss a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia, as well as economic cooperation between the two countries. It remains to be seen if Imran Khan will present the UN version of the Ukraine issue and only talk about it or will he highlight how the US is turning a blind eye to it. I believe Imran Khan has a big chance to prove himself as a world leader. On the page of history, Pakistan’s first step towards world peace will be inscribed in gold letters. We, as ordinary and conscientious Pakistanis, should be proud of our PM. Both outcomes of this visit will be positive for Pakistan. The world will recognize Pakistan’s peace services in the event of a return to peace and ceasefire. Otherwise, even without a ceasefire, Russian-Pakistani relations will begin a new era. The latter will have access to Central Asia and possibly Palestine as well.
