How Trump’s support for a white minority group in South Africa led to a US boycott of the G20 summit
U.S. President Donald Trump has declared that the United States will boycott the upcoming Group of 20 (G20) summit in South Africa, citing alleged human rights abuses against the country’s white minority, the Afrikaners. In a post on Truth Social, Trump announced that no U.S. government officials would attend the November 22-23 summit in Johannesburg, stating, ‘as long as these Human Rights abuses continue.’ This decision marks the latest in a series of criticisms Trump has directed at the Black-led South African government since his return to office. Earlier this year, Trump issued an executive order halting U.S. financial assistance to South Africa, citing the treatment of Afrikaners. The U.S. administration has also prioritized Afrikaners for refugee status, allocating a significant portion of the 7,500 available spots this fiscal year. However, the South African government and some Afrikaners have dismissed Trump’s claims as unfounded. Afrikaners, descendants of Dutch, French, and German settlers, were central to South Africa’s apartheid regime from 1948 to 1994. Today, they are a diverse group, with some acknowledging discrimination while others reject the narrative of persecution. Trump’s allegations include claims that Afrikaners are being ‘killed and slaughtered’ and that their land is being illegally confiscated. These statements reference a controversial land reform law in South Africa, which allows for land appropriation without compensation. Critics argue that the law targets Afrikaners, though it has not yet led to widespread land confiscations. South Africa has refuted Trump’s claims, stating that they lack factual basis and fail to account for the broader context of rural violence, which affects both Black and white farmers. Trump’s broader criticism of South Africa extends beyond the Afrikaner issue, including his disapproval of the country’s stance on Israel and its G20 slogan, which he derided as promoting ‘DEI and climate change.’

Lewandowski back with a bang as Flick heaps praise on star striker
Robert Lewandowski delivered a stunning hat-trick to propel Barcelona to a thrilling 4-2 victory over Celta Vigo in La Liga, narrowing the gap to league leaders Real Madrid to just three points. The Polish striker’s exceptional performance came on the heels of Real Madrid’s goalless draw against Rayo Vallecano earlier in the day. Teenage sensation Lamine Yamal also found the net for Barcelona, while Marcus Rashford contributed two crucial assists in a match that showcased the champions’ relentless attacking style. Despite Frenkie de Jong’s late dismissal for two yellow cards, Barcelona secured the win, moving into second place in the league standings. Lewandowski, who has battled injuries early in the season, expressed his delight at returning to form, describing the game as ‘one of the craziest’ of the season. Manager Hansi Flick praised Lewandowski’s resilience and confidence, emphasizing the striker’s positive mindset following his injury recovery. The match was a rollercoaster, with both teams exchanging goals in a frenetic first half. Lewandowski opened the scoring with a penalty, but Celta Vigo quickly equalized. Rashford’s missed opportunity allowed Celta to take the lead, but Lewandowski’s second goal restored parity. Borja Iglesias put Celta back in front, only for Yamal to give Barcelona the lead before halftime. The second half saw Barcelona dominate, with Lewandowski completing his hat-trick with a header from Rashford’s corner. The victory highlighted Barcelona’s determination to challenge for the title, while Real Madrid’s struggles continued as they failed to break down a resilient Rayo Vallecano side. Despite their dominance, Madrid could not find a breakthrough, with Rayo’s defense and goalkeeper Augusto Batalla standing firm. Manager Xabi Alonso acknowledged the need for improvement but remained optimistic about the season ahead.

Scholars call for ecological protection of Tunbu culture
Academics are urging the preservation of the ecological and cultural integrity of Guizhou’s Tunbu culture as the province seeks to leverage it as a tourism attraction. These concerns were highlighted during the 2025 Tunbu Cultural Conference held recently. Professor Qian Liqun from Peking University emphasized that any development of Tunbu culture, rooted in the history of military immigrants centuries ago, must prioritize the well-being of local communities. He cautioned against transforming the culture into a profit-driven spectacle disconnected from its origins. Tunbu culture, which emerged during the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644), represents a unique blend of Han traditions and local ethnic customs, evident in its clothing, fortress-style settlements, and dialect. Scholars regard it as a living testament to the cultural exchange between Han settlers and ethnic groups in Southwest China. Ming history expert Mao Peiqi underscored that the core values of Tunbu culture—loyalty, bravery, harmony, and integration—embody ethnic unity and sustainable development. In 2023, Tunbu culture was recognized as one of Guizhou’s four major cultural initiatives, encompassing archaeological research, heritage preservation, and cultural-tourism integration. Xie Nian, deputy head of the provincial publicity department, reaffirmed the commitment to a protection-first approach, emphasizing rational use and minimal intervention.

Mahira and Fawad Khan talk about bringing Neelofar to life
In their latest cinematic venture, ‘Neelofar’, Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan explore the intricate nuances of portraying complex characters, particularly the challenge of embodying a blind woman. The film, set to release on November 28, 2025, in UAE cinemas, delves into themes of love, resilience, and the human spirit, offering a poignant narrative that transcends the conventional boundaries of romance.
Mahira Khan, who plays the titular role of Neelofar, a blind woman, shares her journey of preparation and the emotional depth required to bring such a character to life. ‘It was no easy feat,’ Mahira admits. She spent time observing a visually impaired girl in Karachi and drew inspiration from films like ‘Sparsh’, which taught her that blindness is not just a condition but a state of being. ‘You have to feel it from within,’ she emphasizes, highlighting the importance of internalizing the character’s experiences.
Fawad Khan, who not only stars in the film but also serves as its producer, discusses the film’s simplicity and its reliance on Urdu poetry to enhance the narrative. ‘It is a very simple film,’ Fawad clarifies, dispelling notions of it being overly philosophical or artsy. He believes that the film’s charm lies in its unadorned portrayal of romance in Lahore, devoid of unnecessary frills.
The duo, known for their on-screen chemistry, reflects on the expectations and pressures that come with their pairing. ‘Too much of anything is bad,’ Fawad laughs, while Mahira acknowledges the heavy load of public expectations. Despite the buzz surrounding their collaboration, both actors remain focused on the craft rather than the commercial aspects of their partnership.
As they navigate the challenges of their profession, both Mahira and Fawad share insights into the emotional toll of acting and the importance of variety in their roles. ‘I do not want to stay in a state of melancholy,’ Mahira says, emphasizing the need to balance intense roles with lighter ones. Fawad echoes this sentiment, highlighting the occupational hazards of constantly playing troubled characters.
In a world where social media often amplifies criticism, both actors have learned to navigate the noise with grace. ‘I try to ignore as much as I can,’ Fawad admits, while Mahira finds solace in her work, where she feels most alive. ‘I just feel sorry for them,’ she says, referring to those who throw stones in her path.
‘Neelofar’ promises to be a heartfelt exploration of love and resilience, brought to life by two of South Asia’s most celebrated actors. As they continue to push the boundaries of their craft, Mahira and Fawad Khan remind us of the power of storytelling and the enduring magic of cinema.

UAE ‘unlikely’ to join international Gaza security force, says Gargash
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is unlikely to join the proposed International Stabilisation Force in Gaza, citing the absence of a clear operational framework. This announcement was made by Dr. Anwar Gargash, the diplomatic adviser to UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, during his address at the Abu Dhabi Strategic Debate on Monday. Gargash emphasized that the UAE remains committed to political and humanitarian solutions over military intervention in the region. The proposed multinational mission aims to disarm militant factions, dismantle military infrastructure, enforce law and order, secure the Egypt-Gaza border, and protect humanitarian corridors and civilians. However, Gargash reiterated that the UAE does not see a viable military path to stability in Gaza. Instead, he highlighted the UAE’s pivotal role in shaping the international response to the Gaza peace plan, which he described as a ‘historic opportunity’ to address long-standing grievances exploited by extremists. Gargash also reaffirmed the UAE’s unwavering support for a two-state solution, stating that any annexation of Palestinian land would be a ‘red line’ for the nation. He stressed that the UAE’s involvement in rebuilding Gaza would depend on achieving political clarity and a long-term vision for a viable Palestinian state. ‘No country wants to invest heavily without the assurance of enduring peace,’ Gargash remarked, referencing past failed reconstruction efforts in Gaza.

Fight fake news and defeat climate deniers, Brazil’s Lula tells UN talks
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva delivered a passionate address at the opening of the COP30 climate conference in Belém, Brazil, urging the world to combat climate denialism and misinformation. Speaking to thousands of delegates gathered in the Amazonian city, President Lula emphasized the need for truth and scientific evidence in the face of ‘fake news and misrepresentation.’ While not explicitly naming former U.S. President Donald Trump, Lula criticized leaders who ‘control the algorithms, sew hatred, and spread fear,’ referencing Trump’s past dismissal of climate change as a ‘con job.’ The conference, held in a politically charged environment, began without the participation of senior U.S. officials, highlighting the ongoing tension between the U.S. and global climate efforts. President Lula unveiled Brazil’s ambitious Tropical Forest Forever Facility (TFFF), aiming to raise $125 billion for global forest protection, though fundraising has faced challenges, including the UK’s last-minute withdrawal of public funding. The conference also grapples with competing interests, such as the Alliance of Small Island States’ (AOSIS) call to prioritize limiting global temperature rise to 1.5°C, a goal the UN now deems increasingly unattainable. UN Climate Chief Simon Stiell warned of the economic consequences of climate inaction, urging nations to move beyond ‘squabbling’ and focus on collective progress.
