Human Trafficking In Iraq: Every Trafficker’s Favourite Jam

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 26, 20220

The media has only paid to violence, terror and war in Iraq, ignoring the side-effects of the ongoing instability and war instability in Iraq, particularly human trafficking. Human trafficking in Iraq prevailed under Saddam Hussain; the situation worsened by the end of his reign. The U.S. Department of State's 2020 Trafficking in Persons Report ranked Iraq as a tier 2 country. A Tier 2 status means that the nation has not been successful in trafficking using its implemented measures. One of the measures by the Iraqi government includes identifying seventy victims of human trafficking. It has been acknowledged as much higher than this. The blame is passed on to the lack of functioning a functioning in fracture for combating human trafficking correctly. An example is a report from the

Kargil Vijay Diwas: Check Out How India Defeated Pakistan In Operation Vijay

Vikas DeshwalJuly 26, 20220

The Kargil War was battled against intruders from Islamabad, who had travelled the Line of Control (LoC) into the Indian region during the winters of 1998. They brought up occupancy in fortified strongholds that dominated the NH 1A in the Ladakh region's Drass and Batalik Sectors of Kargil. In 1999, the battle went on from May 8 to July 26, 1999, when India completed Operation Vijay. On July 26, 2022, New Delhi will celebrate the brave sacrifices and boldness of the failed heroes in retaking different peak heights brought by Pakistani intruders in Kashmir, honouring the 23rd anniversary of its triumph over Pakistan in the Kargil War. Because of separatist motions in Kashmir, some of which were supported by Pakistan, the tension created during the 1990s, the Lahore Declaration was an

Shinzo Abe: Staunch Advocate For ‘Indo-Pacific’ From ‘Asia-Pacific’

Dr. Kankana DebnathJuly 26, 20220

Japan lost its longest-serving PM Shinzo Abe on 8th July 2022. He was assassinated while giving a speech in Nara, Japan. Abe has been a visionary in re-imaging the geopolitical design of the Indo-Pacific. He was the ‘architect’ of the Quad during its initial years and remained its key champion throughout its revival. Abe stressed the importance of joining the Pacific and Indian oceans creating a “broader Asia”, from which the present concept of Indo-Pacific evolved. Advocate for ‘free and open Indo-Pacific’ Shinzo Abe has been hailed as the pioneer of the concept of the “Indo-Pacific”. Before 2007 the area stretching all the way from Australia and US to China was known as Asia-Pacific. Abe feared the threat from China which was at the centre of this geopolitical landscape. He was the...

France’s Africa: A Story Of Modern Day Colonialism

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 26, 20220

The French Empire was one of the most powerful in human history. At its height, it controlled almost ten per cent of the world's land area. The country was a dominant global power from Southeast Asia to West Africa. And that was particularly true in Africa. France oversaw territory spanning 17 modern-day nations, from Morocco to the Congo. Under the banner of a "civilising mission," France managed brutal occupations that engorged the empire's wealth. It left a terrible legacy for ordinary Africans – marked by slavery, extraction, and murder. And today, France's empire in Africa is STILL around – in a streamlined, more profitable, and even more exploitative form. In the aftermath of the Second World War, a wave of decolonial movements swept across Africa and Asia. And the French –...

Vikas DeshwalJuly 25, 20220

Turkey, United Nation Become Mediators Amid Russia, Ukraine Signing Grain Export deal

Vikas DeshwalJuly 25, 20220

Moscow and Kyiv administrators have signed a contract to permit grain exports from Ukrainian Black Sea ports, as UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan told the deal would allow easing the international food crisis The neighbouring, warring countries are among the globe’s biggest exporters of grains. Still, Russia’s aggression led to a de-facto blocking of the Black Sea, resulting in Ukraine’s exports declining to a sixth of their pre-war status. Russian defence minister Sergei Shoigu and Ukraine’s infrastructure minister, Oleksandr Kubrakov, autographed the agreement individually on Friday, carefully bypassing seating at the exact tableland and bypassing shaking hands. The signing ritual took residence at Istanbul’s lavish Dolmabahce Pal

Isha PoddarJuly 25, 20220

Russian missile walkouts have hit the southern Ukrainian port of Odesa one day after Ukraine and Russia approved a deal that would permit the resumption of required grain exports from the territory. Serhii Bratchuk, a spokesman for the Odesa military management, stated that two missiles crashed the infrastructure of the port, and Ukraine’s air defence shot down two.

Russia Threatens Further Annexations, Ukraine Obliges With Ports For Trade

Vikas DeshwalJuly 25, 20220

The timing of Sergey Lavrov's interview with state-run Russia TV appears to both pressure Kyiv into demining the harbours and softening the pro-Russian separatist Donbas, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia provinces from US-supplied missiles. His statements came as the US declared it would deliver Ukraine with more long-range weapons. Ukraine will accept another four High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) rocket systems to stop the passage of Russian battalions, obtaining the actual number to 16. Ukrainian First Lady Olena Zelenska too discoursed US Congress on Wednesday, requesting for more air-defence systems to "help us to stop this nightmare against Ukrainians." Lavrov described in the hour-long interview, "Now the landscape has changed. It’s not just Donetsk and Luhansk. And it's

Relief Funds Conned In US: The Bleeding Aid In America

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 25, 20220

When investigators raided a small mall store in Garden Grove in California, they found a line of customers snaking around the parking area and huge bundles of notes inside the store. According to the Orange County prosecutors, Nguyen Social Services was charging up to $700 to file false cases of unemployment claims for people who couldn't qualify to get relief money for Covid-19. The shameless fraud was part of a scheme that cost taxpayers an estimated $11 million, according to prosecutors. "This isn't just an Orange County problem. It isn't just a California problem," Attorney Todd Spitzer from Orange County added. "This is a breakdown of catastrophic proportions that has failed the American taxpayer." Government programs have long been a golden opportunity for scammers. But th...

New Delhi’s View Has Become Reactive Rather Than Proactive Against Beijing

Vikas DeshwalJuly 25, 20220

The 16th round of discussions between New Delhi and Beijing at the Corps Commander rank has been completed with no sign of a Chinese escape from eastern Ladakh. This reached on the heels of discussions on July 7 between External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, that forgot to show any developments. While the MEA's report following the conference called on China "to satisfy the disengagement from all remaining zones", the Chinese information did not refer to Ladakh whatsoever. Instead, it concerned Chinese considerations over Ukraine. We have arrived in such a sad situation that Beijing doesn't actually have trouble acknowledging India's needs. Additionally, two years after the border problem with China started in eastern Ladakh, PM Narendra Modi's

The Chinese Surveillance System: An All Seeing Eye Of Malice

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 25, 20220

China is known for its notoriously quasi-democratic autocracy, which occasionally protrudes beyond the nations' border. Domestically, Xi Ping, the Chinese Putin, maintains a deadly grip through its infamous surveillance technology with the use of cameras, infrared sensors, voice recognition software and biometric technology. Other than to control any crimes to maintain the stability of the state, protests and anti-humanitarian acts by the government are not disclosed and kept a secret. The blame for any form of chaos is blamed on anyone who isn't Han Chinese, the majority of the nation. In 2019 footage showed the system in its flesh. The video showed the blindfolded and fettered Uighur Muslims marching to detention centres. The Xinjiang province, which housed the most Uighurs in China e...

Congress Steps Towards Oblivion: A Look Back At Party’s Initial Ideologies

Sayani ChakrabortyJuly 23, 20220

The present plight of the Congress party has been worrisome as the party's reputation, power and leadership skills have been denounced and thrown away into the abyss of identity depletion. With every election, the party is losing seats and reputation. Let us look into a brief history and main ideologies and purpose of this national party that once ousted the foreign power from the land of Tiranga. One of India's two main political parties, the Indian National Congress (INC), has a long and distinguished history. AO Hume, or Allan Octavian Hume as it is most often known, created the party in 1885. As one of the world's oldest political parties, it was instrumental in India's war for independence. We'll examine the Indian National Congress party's philosophy and goals in this piece. ...
