In my May 15, 2025 post "India Shouts Much Louder", I wrote these concluding lines: "...global media is portraying Pakistan more positively than India. And I'm sorry to say that the world isn't buying into India's bombast".
True enough, it was reported on Saturday that India plans to send seven multi-party delegations to 32 countries as well as the United Nations Security Council and the European Union "to convey its case against alleged terrorism emanating from Pakistan". Meaning, to communicate that "right" is on India's side.
According to this news report, the idea was formulated after New Delhi received what it perceived as poor press coverage in the international media regarding its brief military confrontation against Islamabad this month. And that Western media outlets have been accused of publishing pro-Pakistan narratives of Operation Sindoor, New Delhi’s military response to a deadly terror attack in India’s Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir last month.
Interestingly, Islamabad has announced counter-measures to the initiative. On Sunday, Radio Pakistan reported that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif will send a group of high-level diplomats to major world capitals in an effort to check India.
Pakistan’s diplomatic delegation will travel to key cities, including London, Washington, Paris, and Brussels, “to expose Indian propaganda”, according to the report.
India knows it must pull out all the stops to win the narrative war. The truth is, reality has not been kind to India at all!
Premier League champions Liverpool twice let a lead slip as Brighton & Hove Albion fought back in style to gain a 3-2 victory yesterday.
The former took a ninth-minute lead through Harvey Elilott following good work from Conor Bradley, before their opponents equalised with a low strike in the thirty-second minute.
Dominik Szoboszlai restored the Reds' lead on the stroke of half time when he, from a crossing position, unexpectedly fired the ball past the home goalkeeper and into the net. Again, the Seagulls equalized in the sixty-ninth minute. And then, their substitute fired home the winner sixteen minutes later.
For Liverpool, there's one more game to go before the season ends. Against Crystal Palace on May 25.
