World News@lemmy.world•Report: 15,000 Pakistanis arrested and deported from UAE, savings seizedEnglish
8·3 months agoWhy is this happening?
The deportations come amid a broader cooling of ties between the UAE and Pakistan. Abu Dhabi recently demanded early repayment of a $3.5 billion financial support package, a move seen by observers as a sign of growing frustration with Islamabad.
At the same time, Pakistan’s evolving geopolitical positioning, including its engagement with Iran and perceived lack of strong response to regional tensions, has added to the unease.
In contrast, the UAE has been strengthening ties with India, deepening cooperation in trade, investment, and security. This shift highlights a recalibration of regional priorities that appears to be leaving Pakistan increasingly isolated.

23·2 years agoThere are three basic principles that continue to set UN peacekeeping operations apart as a tool for maintaining international peace and security.
These three principles are inter-related and mutually reinforcing:

That says the UN controls the troops.
They are not an army, they are a peacekeeping force.
They are also under UN rules, not their own nation’s.
If the UN decides they can choose to stay or leave, that’s what happens.
