Pepe Escobar | BREAKING: The Nuclear Signal Nobody Expected.Why the Next 72 Hours Decide Everything | Aug. 27, 2026

Source: Transition Protocol youtube



Description:
IRAN HAS SIGNALLED IT MAY OPEN THE NUCLEAR FILE — and the Strait of Hormuz has 72 hours to prove whether the deal is real. 

Pepe Escobar and Zulfiqar Ali break down the Iran–US architecture now being assembled through Pakistani mediation: the closed Strait of Hormuz, the war-risk insurance premiums that will move before any government speaks, the six billion dollars sitting in Qatari banks, and the three-capital joint statement that sources say could land within 48 hours. Sources close to the talks indicate Iranian negotiators may show flexibility on the nuclear dossier at a later stage — a reversal from the position held a day earlier.

Also in this episode: why Iran has shut Omani territorial waters to transiting ships and taken control of the whole strait; why Pakistan has refused to enforce US secondary sanctions on Iran — described here as a first in its history — alongside coordinated foreign-ministry pushback from Russia and China; the role of former Pakistani army chief Raheel Sharif in carrying the framework to Riyadh and onward to Washington; the 40 million Pakistani Shias offered to Tehran as a guarantee of good faith; and the 60-to-90-day framework of indirect talks and cessation of hostilities now under discussion, with Pakistan as mediator and Qatar as the financial channel. Islamabad and Switzerland are both being pushed as the signing venue.

Pepe Escobar is a veteran geopolitical correspondent who has covered Eurasian politics and energy for decades; Zulfiqar Ali reports from direct contacts across the Pakistani and Iranian political and military leadership. Claims sourced to those contacts are marked DEVELOPING on screen and are not independently verified. Transition Protocol is a source-driven geopolitics channel covering de-dollarization, BRICS, the multipolar order and the financial consequences of global power shifts.

Description:
Pakistan is the latest country to hit back after the White House threatened countries who trade with Iran. China has already said it won’t be taking orders from America. So is this another failed bid by Donald Trump to bend Iran and its backers to his will?

Or could this actually work? Several senior Iranian leaders have recently acknowledged the economic pain that the country and its people are feeling. 
 
On this episode of The Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy speaks to Mohammed Marandi, a professor at Tehran University and a former adviser to Iran’s nuclear negotiating team to get a view from inside Iran.

Maussan Televisión | Exclusive: The Latest UFO Sightings in the World | Aug. 27, 2026

Source: Maussan Televisión youtube



Description:
Welcome to a new episode of Interestelar with Jaime Maussan. In this exclusive episode, we look at the striking wave of UFO sightings shaking the world in 2026.

From a live broadcast in Guadalajara that captured a green object dissipating in front of the cameras, to extraordinary evidence at the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt, where an object left a trail and released a smaller probe. We examine striking cases in:

- Mexico: Mass sightings in Guanajuato and live captures by Image TV.

- Brazil and Chile: Objects emerging from lunar craters and disc-shaped craft with visible energy.

- New York and New Jersey: The wave that has not stopped since 2024, which the government tries to explain as "drones."

- China: Sensing spheres watching buildings and rhythmic lights in Shandong.

- Japan: An object with the classic "Tic Tac" shape captured with striking clarity.

Are we looking at the prelude to official contact? We also examine the concerning report that the United States has shot down more objects than it admits. This weekly recap covers some of the strongest evidence of the non-human phenomenon.
