A Pakistani cabinet minister says Islamabad will continue to import liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Qatar under a 15-year agreement, despite the severing of diplomatic ties with Qatar by Saudi Arabia and some other countries.
Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, the federal minister for Petroleum and Natural Resources, said Qatar and Pakistan last year signed a $1 billion agreement, under which Qatar's Liquefied Gas Company Limited will sell LNG from 2016 to year 2031 to state-run Pakistan State Oil.
He said since no sanctions have been imposed on Qatar by the United Nations, Pakistan and Qatar were bound to abide by the agreement.
Qatar has released an initial report into the alleged hack of its state-run news agency, an incident which helped spark a diplomatic crisis between the energy-rich country and Arab nations.
The Qatari Interior Ministry said late Wednesday that the website of the Qatar News Agency was initially hacked in April with "high techniques and innovative methods."
It said hackers installed a file and then published a fake news item attributed to Qatar's emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, just after midnight May 24.
The ministry did not say who it suspected carried out the attack. It also thanked the FBI and the British National Commission for Combating Crime for assisting it in its investigation.
The alleged fake news item, which had Sheikh Tamim making controversial comments on Iran and Israel, immediately was picked up by Saudi and Emirati media, laying the groundwork for the crisis that began Monday (05.06.2017.)
Kuwait's emir has traveled to Qatar and met that country's leader as part of his efforts to mediate an end to a crisis that's seen Arab nations cut ties to the energy-rich country and attempt to isolate it.
Kuwait's Sheikh Sabah Al Ahmad Al Sabah was met planeside by Qatar's emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, when he arrived on Wednesday night.
The two held talks, though details of their discussions were not released. Sheikh Sabah earlier Wednesday traveled to Dubai where he met with Abu Dhabi's Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Dubai's ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who also serves as prime minister and vice president of the UAE.
Sheikh Sabah also has traveled to Saudi Arabia in his efforts.

On persiste à parler de « procès », alors qu'il s'agit, en réalité, d'un exercice d'équilibrisme institutionnel où les vrais accusés sont absents, les témoins essentiels invisibles et les spectateurs priés de croire qu'une révolution judiciaire est en cours au Gabon.

In January 2025, the European Commission announced it would present a European grids package as part of its competitiveness compass for the EU. The intention of building on the 2023 action plan for grids was reiterated in February 2025, in the Clean Industrial Deal and action plan for affordable energy; and most recently as part of the 2026 Commission work programme adopted in October 2025. The Commission is expected to present the grids package on 10 December 2025. Energy prices in the EU remain higher and more volatile than those of its trading partners, reflecting Europe's dependency on imported fossil fuels and the investment uncertainty caused by recent geopolitical shocks. These pressures are intensified by structural inefficiencies in the energy system: insufficient interconnections, ageing grids, long and inconsistent permitting times, and limited support for distribution-level and digital infrastructure – all of which prevent the EU from fully exploiting its renewable generation potential. Despite progress made on cross-border infrastructure projects with the introduction of the Trans-European Networks for Energy (TEN-E) framework, large-scale investments to support grid expansion are still needed. In terms of implementation, investment is hampered by complex and fragmented grid planning, requiring heavy coordination across different strategies and stakeholders, as well lengthy permitting processes. In this regard, stakeholder groups call for simpler, clearer and more coordinated governance to ensure cross-border and cross-sector integration. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP
