Katar nakupuje americký LNG. Aby mohl plnit své smluvní závazky vůči svým odběratelům. Svět je vzhůru nohama.

The US and Iran are back at it. Fresh wave of Iranian missiles targeting US forces in Jordan, after the US struck Larak island.
7% in this economy? In a global economy battered by the Iran war, that’s not bad at all. If anything, it shows that India is getting better at navigating one crisis after another without losing momentum. When you’re chasing a goal, the key is not to get thrown off course.
Why America's 'Economic D-Day' on Iran Is Doomed to Fail Do watch this episode of The Link, as I break down Trump's Economic D-Day on Iran: the Resistance Economy, the China loophole, Russia's role, the Strait of Hormuz, and the Patriot missile shortage that may be the real story. https://t.co/Ns0AD3wGdb
In 48 hours, Kuwait deepened defence ties with BOTH Pakistan through the Protocol Agreement 2026 on Aug 27 and India through the inaugural Joint Defence Committee on Aug 28. It’s deliberate hedging. A small Gulf state is diversifying its security partnerships after the regional shocks of 2026, while refusing to pick a side in the India-Pakistan rivalry. https://t.co/aPrjSeUrVC
Bangladesh’s Jamaat-e-Islami Chief says joining the Mecca Pact is a sovereign and internal matter for Bangladesh. Indeed. But sovereignty does not make the strategic consequences of such a decision irrelevant to its neighbours, particularly when the pact involves Pakistan https://t.co/jiXL5WOPta
Two developments in two days: Pakistan wants a $10bn US swap line to reassure investors and deepen its economic engagement with Washington. At the same time, it says it won’t be bound by US sanctions on Iran. Pakistan wants Washington’s money and strategic backing without giving up its room to deal with Tehran. It would be interesting to watch whether Washington actually rewards Pakistan financially.
The UAE is building massive steel-and-mesh “cope cages” around vital energy infrastructure in Abu Dhabi and other strategic locations, adding a low-tech passive layer of defence against the cheap Iranian one-way attack drones https://t.co/blgfOPJkZk
The US is about to take Syria off its State Sponsors of Terrorism list, a label it has carried since 1979. Until barely a year ago, Washington considered Syria’s new president Ahmed al-Sharaa a terrorist and had a $10 million bounty on him
On Bangladesh showing interest in the Mecca Pact: the real question is not whether Saudi Arabia or Türkiye would go to war with India over Dhaka, or whether Bangladesh would fight India on Pakistan’s behalf. Neither is remotely plausible. For Bangladesh, it risks reducing its own strategic flexibility and the “security guarantee” may have little practical value in an India-Bangladesh crisis. Geography still makes India Bangladesh’s most consequential neighbour. Trading that relationship for an uncertain dividend is a risky bargain.
