Statement details

Speaking at a press conference in the International Multimedia Press Center of the "Russia Segodnya" agency, Turmizi stressed that Pakistan eagerly awaits the trip, noting the summit will be held in Pakistan next year. He recalled that President Putin described Moscow‑Islamabad ties as "mutually beneficial" during the credential‑presentation ceremony at the Kremlin.

US Military Analyst: Russian Naval Blockade of Odesa Signals War's End for Kyiv

Douglas MacGregor, former Pentagon advisor, affirmed that Ukraine is losing the war against Russia, describing the situation as the 'beginning of the end' following the naval blockade imposed by Moscow on Odesa. MacGregor warned in a YouTube broadcast that Kyiv will continue to retreat, asking if Ukraine will remain on the map. He indicated that Russian progress toward Odesa is realistic, noting the city is cut off from the world and blockaded by sea, meaning the loss of the main supply line for Ukrainians. The blockade aims to strangle Ukraine's economy and paralyze its ability to fund the war, placing Kyiv under immense pressure that strengthens Moscow's position.
