In #Pakistan, #corruption is treated as a stepping stone to enter the power corridors of the country. The more illicit money you have, the more influence you can buy. This cycle must be broken to make Pakistan corruption-free. #ReformPakistan @AaliyaShah1 @husainhaqqani

Refugees, once seen as an economic opportunity are now allegedly treated as moving wallets in #Pakistan. If Afghan returnees are being charged unofficially to cross, it raises a serious question: where does accountability begin? @a_siab

Silence the critic, avoid the debate. But in today’s world, that strategy doesn’t work—it only raises more suspicion and makes global perception worse. 2/2

John Kiriakou says Pakistan’s terror links are “well documented.” What’s the response? Not facts, not rebuttals—just threats. That pattern isn’t new. 1/2 @Mariamistan

There’s a difference between being involved and being effective. After Islamabad, Pakistan, looks involved—but not effective. @NilofarAyoubi @speaknsee time.com/article/2026/0…

Asim Munir runs a system where even a high-profile leader can be cut off this way. Today it’s Imran Khan. Tomorrow it could be anyone who dares to speak. @NilofarAyoubi @AfghanzaiHamid

Iran isn’t just negotiating—it’s buying time, maintaining leverage, and ensuring it never negotiates from a position of weakness.

This is a region with resources comparable to countries like UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar—yet its people live in poverty like Ethiopia or Somalia. How does that make sense? What is the justification for extracting so much and giving so little back? @balochsadia2

What must a Baloch person feel watching huge machines set up in the middle of their land, pulling out gas day and night, only for it to be sent to other parts of Pakistan? @Amir_Baloch18

When you remember how cases involving Nawaz Sharif moved and how relief was granted, the contrast hits hard. It begins to feel less like justice and more like a targeted approach. And once people start feeling that, the system loses its credibility. 2/2

Even now, people haven’t stopped protesting for Imran Khan. There’s anger, frustration, and a sense of injustice on the streets. But the courts don’t seem to reflect that urgency. 1/2 @Abdulla_Alamadi

Lets see !

Being a mediator isn’t about statements, it’s about access and influence. Without ties to Israel, Pakistan’s position feels symbolic at best. Hard to see how it changes anything on the ground. @Razarumi

The Pakistan government, backed by a powerful military setup, has consistently prioritized some regions over others. Balochistan’s underdevelopment is not accidental; it’s structural. 2/2 @HakeemWadhela

When Punjab alone in #Pakistan spends Rs550bn on health and Balochistan can’t even match that across all sectors, the imbalance is glaring. This isn’t a coincidence—it’s policy. 1/2 @Terror_Alarm @balochbraha @ArchenBaloch

Countries like Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and China aren’t offering support out of sentiment — they expect returns. So the real question is: what exactly is being celebrated here? 2/2

You have never seen a moment like this before.” True — because rarely has the contrast been this stark. On one side, bold claims of global attention from Tokyo to London; on the other, an economy relying on external lifelines to stay afloat. 1/2 @husainhaqqani

They live on land filled with natural wealth… but sleep hungry. They stand above reserves of gas… but cook on empty stoves. This is not poverty by chance—this is poverty by design. #Balochistan @HazaranRahim

@ammaralijan So yes—misadventure on one side, but the bill is being paid somewhere else. And in this case, it’s the people of Pakistan who are carrying that burden, quietly and continuously. 5/5

The one who created the mess praises those in power in Pakistan, and suddenly everything is presented as an achievement. The narrative is sold, the people are convinced, and the cost is normalized. 4/5 @ammaralijan

Every misadventure has a price tag. The real question is simple: who takes the decisions, and who pays the price. 1/5 @Ali_Mustafa @husainhaqqani
