Pakistan needs support over climate emergency_我的网站

A |     Islamabad, Oct 12 (UNI) The Health Minister of Pakistan's southern Sindh province Azra Fazal Pechuho said there is a need for technical support to the country in addition to the support being provided by the international community as climate change emergency will be a regular occurrence.
"We need to be prepared for all possibilities," Pechuho said on Tuesday in Sindh's capital Karachi while highlighting the challenges faced by the province amidst catastrophic floods this year in Pakistan.
She said that there was a state of health emergency in Sindh due to floods. Now that the water has become stagnant for months, a shift in disease patterns was underway. The weather was also getting colder, leading to pneumonia and other respiratory diseases.
Pechuho said that 7.4 million people were displaced in Sindh and the health department has so far managed to treat 3.9 million people.
Most hospitals were overburdened with internally displaced people who need treatment and almost every outpatient department was functioning at over 100 per cent capacity, she said.
"Rehabilitating the displaced would take approximately three months but this is simply an estimate and it all depends on when the water recedes and when the rehabilitation process can begin in earnest," the Minister said.
UNI/XINHUA MR。    Astana, Oct 15 (UNI) Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that any direct clash of Nato troops with Russia would lead to a “global catastrophe”.

“I hope that those who are saying this are smart enough not to take such steps,” Putin said at a news conference in the Kazakh capital here on Friday following a summit of ex-Soviet nations.

Putin also said he saw “no need” for talks with his US counterpart Joe Biden, as tensions with Washington soar over a litany of issues including Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine, Dawn reported.

“We should ask him if he’s ready to hold such talks with me or not. I don’t see the need, to be honest,” Putin said, when asked about a potential meeting with Biden on the sidelines of a G20 summit in November.

He added that his participation in the summit hosted by Indonesia is not yet decided.

“The question of my trip there has not been finalised. Russia will certainly take part. As for the format, we’re still thinking about it,” Putin told reporters.

Speaking earlier this week, Biden said he had “no intention” of meeting with Putin but did not rule out potential talks.

Putin said he does not plan more “massive” strikes against Ukraine “for now” and that the Kremlin’s aim was not to “destroy” the pro-Western country. “There is no need now for massive strikes. There are other tasks. For now.

And then it will be clear,“ Putin said. “We do not set ourselves the task of destroying Ukraine.”

He was speaking days after Russia unleashed a wave of missile strikes across Ukraine, including on the capital Kyiv central.

Putin, who sent troops to Ukraine on February 24, is facing increased isolation even from allies.

But he said Russia is “doing everything right” in Ukraine — despite a failed attempt to topple the government and weeks of territorial losses.

“What is happening today is not pleasant. But all the same (if Russia hadn’t attacked in February) we would have been in the same situation, only the conditions would have been worse for us,” he said. “So we’re doing everything right.”
