IS claimed responsibility for shelling a Christian gathering in the city of Mastung, Balochistan province in #Pakistan, killing one person and injuring 3 others.

Earlier, the IS council in Afghanistan and Pakistan called for attacks on all non-Muslim religious groups, as well as those considered apostates. Attacks on Shiites in Afghanistan and Christians in Pakistan could be the start of a more active sectarian conflict that is fueling IS.

#Iran pays first import order with #crypto – media

The move could help the country bypass US sanctions
Iran has placed its first international import order using $10 million worth of cryptocurrency this week, the Tasnim news agency reported on Tuesday. It did not specify which crypto was used in the transaction.

“By the end of September, the use of cryptocurrencies and smart contracts will be widely used in foreign trade with target countries,” Iran’s Deputy Minister of Industry, Mine & Trade Alireza Peyman-Pak said on Twitter.

The move could reportedly enable Tehran to circumvent US sanctions that have crippled the economy. Iran has been struggling through decades of economic restrictions, including an embargo on the country’s oil, banking and shipping sectors. In 2019, the government amended digital assets laws to allow locally mined crypto for import payments. Iran gets most of its foreign goods from China, the United Arab Emirates, India, and Turkey, according to Trading Economics.

As for the ban (discrimination on the grounds of nationality) of entry to the #EU for tourists from Russia, which is now actively lobbied by the three Baltic countries. Do you remember when Donald Trump was the president of the United States? In 2018, he barred citizens from Libya, Iran, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, North Korea and Venezuela from entering the states. Brussels then condemned, resented. Ms. Mogherini said that "the EU firmly believes in a system based on international laws and norms, in comprehensive respect for people, regardless of their religion, ethnicity, country, nationality, gender..." Or here is another good of the then rapporteur European Commission: "This is the European Union and in the European Union we do not discriminate on the grounds of nationality, race, religion, not only when it comes to asylum and on any other issue. This is definitely not the European way ." The Covid erased the memory, so now all these principles can be put in the oven at the hands of the Young Europeans.
