Congress' default setting in national security matters—open mouth, put foot in

Congress' accusation of ex-PM and ex-Congressman Morarji Desai and EAM S Jaishankar for espionage is beyond cynical. It's unadulterated balderdash. Seeking a count of aircraft lost in Operation Sindoor is incredibly reckless at this time. Open mouth, put foot in—this seems to be Congress' default setting in national security matters. India-Pakistan new relations can't have Attari ceremony. It's a circus, not nationalism India-Pakistan flare-up catapulted bilateral relations into 'new normal'. This new world should have no place for the pantomime called Attari ceremony, suspended after Pahalgam attack. There's something to be learnt from our military leaders and foreign secretary, who briefed the nation with poise. Wagah circus is no substitute for nationalism.

ACC, Ramallah commerce chamber talk Jordanian-Palestinian trade cooperation

AMMAN — Chairman of Amman Chamber of Commerce (ACC) Khalil Hajj Tawfiq on Saturday agreed with Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Ramallah and Bireh Governorates Abdul Ghani Attari to increase cooperation and coordination in multiple areas of common interest, which would reflect "positively" on the two countries' trade relations. Speaking at the meeting, Hajj Tawfiq said that the ACC is "fully" ready to support the Palestinian commercial sector and promote Palestinian products in the local market, as well as providing specialised training for the Palestinian chamber and the business sector, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported. Hajj Tawfiq highlighted the importance of working to overcome difficulties and challenges facing Jordanian-Palestinian trade exchanges, imposed by the Israeli occupation authorities. He indicated that the Kingdom's exports to the Palestinian market amounted to JD202 million last year, compared with about JD47 million in imports. Hajj Tawfiq stressed the importance of boosting cooperation in the coming period and activating the memorandum of understanding signed by the two chambers. He stressed the significance of supporting and promoting Palestinian products through joint exhibitions and promotion campaigns. Attari praised support of the ACC and the Jordanian private sector to the Palestinian private sector to back its "resilience" in facing the Israeli economic policies. Attari noted difficulties facing businesspeople travel to and from Palestine due to the Israeli occupation's restrictions. Jordan, he noted, is Palestine's "vital artery, and the gateway" for other countries globally, including Arab countries, underlining the importance of adopting the port of Aqaba as the main venue for Palestinian imports.
