The United Nations (UN) welcomes a pause in fighting between Afghanistan and Pakistan to mark the Eid al-Fitr holiday and hopes it can be extended, UN Deputy Spokesperson Farhan Haq said at a press conference on Wednesday (March 18, 2026). Earlier in the day, Afghanistan and Pakistan announced a temporary pause in fighting starting Wednesday midnight to mark the end of Ramadan. "That's a welcome development," Haq told reporters. The spokesman reiterated UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres' call for de-escalation and an immediate cessation of hostilities and adherence to international law. "So, this (pause) is in line with that. And we hope that the Eid al-Fitr suspension can be extended," he said.[1] 

According to him, the UN also condemned Pakistan's attack on Monday (March 16, 2026) on a drug rehabilitation center in the capital, Kabul. In early March, Pakistan launched airstrikes against suspected militant hideouts in Afghanistan's Nangarhar and Paktika provinces. According to Afghan authorities, dozens of civilians were killed and injured in the attacks. Earlier on February 26, Afghanistan launched a military operation against Pakistani bases along the Durand Line, the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan that is not recognized by Kabul, in retaliation for the bombings. Pakistan later announced the launch of Operation Ghazab lil Haq in response to what it called "unprovoked shelling" by Afghanistan in several border sectors.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

France has surprisingly strongly condemned the military action launched by the United States (US) and Israel against Iranian territory. Paris emphasized that it could not approve the attack because it was considered a violation of international law. French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot stated that the joint airstrike targeting the Islamic Republic's territory was carried out without a strong legal basis. In addition to legality issues, Paris highlighted the lack of a transparent strategic objective in this large-scale military operation. "France cannot approve the attack by US and Israeli forces on Iran because it was carried out outside international law and without a clearly defined objective," Barrot said in an interview with France 2 television channel.[1]

Barrot further explained that, from the French government's perspective, the series of attacks lacked measurable strategic objectives. He considered these unilateral actions to fall short of globally recognized legal standards for resolving interstate conflicts. On the same occasion, Barrot reiterated his country's stance of distancing itself from the armed conflict in the Middle East. He assured that the French military would not be dragged into the operations led by Washington and Tel Aviv. "We do not approve of this war, and we are not participating in it," Barrot asserted. While condemning its allies' actions, France continues to urge immediate de-escalation in the region to prevent a wider conflict.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

The US Supreme Court Has Declared Trump's Reciprocal Tariff Policy Unconstitutional

The United States Supreme Court ruled that Donald Trump's tariff policies against many countries were unconstitutional. The president lacked the inherent authority to impose large-scale tariffs on any country. Trump invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) of 1977 as the legal basis. This gave him the power to "regulate" trade in response to emergencies.[1]

Trump's tariff policy sparked strong protests both at home and abroad. Companies complained about the sudden increase in taxes on goods entering the US and feared it would make them more expensive. Lawyers from several US states and small businesses then challenged Trump's policy in the US Supreme Court. They argued that the law Trump used to levy the fees did not even mention the word "tariff" The plaintiffs also asserted that the US Congress did not grant the president tax authority, let alone "unfettered power" to overturn existing trade agreements and tariff regimes. In his ruling, Chief Justice John Roberts agreed with this view. In his opinion, he wrote: "When Congress grants tariff authority, it must do so in very clear terms and with strict limitations. If Congress had intended to grant extraordinary tariff authority, it would have said so explicitly, as it has done in other tariff regimes."[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Irish Foreign Minister Helen McEntee stated that her country opposes a joint US-Israeli attack on Iran without a UN mandate. "My position and the government's position are clear—the current US and Israeli military operations do not have a mandate or authorization from the United Nations, and there is no attempt to seek such authorization," McEntee said in parliament on Thursday (March 5, 2026). She emphasized that Ireland's stance against the use of military force outside the framework of a UN mandate has long been clear and widely known.[1]

McEntee also emphasized that all countries must comply with international law and the principles of the UN Charter. She stated that the UN system is a vital security factor for small countries, including Ireland. On February 28, the US and Israel launched a series of attacks on several targets in Iran, including Tehran, causing damage and civilian casualties. Iran then launched retaliatory missile attacks on Israeli territory and US military facilities in the Middle East. The attacks occurred amid nuclear negotiations between Iran and the United States, mediated by Oman and taking place in Geneva, Switzerland.[2]

Police in the United Arab Emirates, specifically in Dubai, have arrested a beggar caught carrying 20,000 dirhams (approximately IDR 90 million) in cash. The arrest was made during a special operation to eradicate illegal begging in the country. Dubai Police stated that the perpetrator was apprehended in a public parking area by a team from the Department of Suspicious Persons and Criminal Phenomena. This operation is part of the "Combating Begging" campaign, conducted in collaboration with several strategic partners. [1]

Local authorities consider begging not only illegal but also damaging to the city's image and often involves organized fraud. Beggars specifically target luxury vehicle owners in parking lots and at traffic lights. They use false stories of extreme poverty and hunger to incite compassion among motorists. The Dubai government is currently intensifying its crackdown on begging, especially during Ramadan. Under UAE federal law, begging is a criminal offense subject to strict penalties.

Singapore Forms Committee to Address Legal Profession Crisis

Previously, the www.hukumindo.com platform has talk about "Two Dutch Prisoners Repatriated For Humanitarian Considerations", "Bong Chun Nam's Story About Changing His Name to Benny Gunawan", you may read also "Indonesia and Australia Agree on Joint Security Treaty" and on this occasion we will discuss about 'Singapore Forms Committee to Address Legal Profession Crisis'.

Singapore has taken a strategic step to address serious challenges in the legal profession by establishing a high-level committee to address the high rate of lawyer attrition and the impact of developments in artificial intelligence (AI) on legal practice. The committee will be co-chaired by the Minister for Law and the Chief Justice of Singapore. This follows a survey of young lawyers conducted in 2024 and 2025, which found that approximately 60 percent of respondents planned to leave legal practice within the next five years. The main reasons driving this decision included excessive workload, poor work-life balance, mental health pressures, lack of work flexibility, unhealthy workplace culture, and offers of better compensation in other sectors.[1]

The committee will consist of representatives from various stakeholders, with the goal of formulating policy directions and sustainable solutions to keep the legal profession relevant, healthy, and attractive to new generations. The changing global and digital landscape brings new challenges. The digital era is accelerating the pace of legal work, increasing client demands, and expanding cross-border interactions. Meanwhile, advances in AI are beginning to transform the way lawyers work, from legal research to document analysis.[2]

While technology offers efficiencies, there are concerns that over-reliance on AI could erode fundamental legal skills, such as legal analysis, reasoning, and argumentation. Furthermore, not all aspects of the legal profession can be replaced by technology, particularly human skills such as ethical judgment, negotiation, and face-to-face courtroom interaction. This committee is expected to balance the use of technology with human resource development, while addressing issues of well-being and work culture.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

The Indonesian government will repatriate two Dutch prisoners after receiving a request from the Kingdom of the Netherlands through the transfer for prisoners mechanism. Coordinating Minister for Law, Human Rights, Immigration, and Corrections, Yusril Ihza Mahendra, revealed that he had communicated with Dutch Foreign Minister David Van Weel regarding the planned repatriation of the two prisoners. "There are two people who have requested to be transferred to the Netherlands," Yusril said. The two prisoners in question are Siegfried Mets (73) and Ali Tokman (64), who were involved in narcotics crimes and were sentenced to death and life imprisonment, respectively. The reason for the repatriation is humanitarian considerations, as both are elderly and in poor health. "Our government has given the green light for these two men to return them to the Netherlands," Yusril stated.[1]

He explained that the repatriation does not change the Indonesian court's decision. However, Yusril explained, after their repatriation, the legal process for the two men is under the jurisdiction of the Netherlands. "Then the task of further development is handed over to the country concerned. So, it doesn't change our court's decision at all, which was to sentence Siegfried Mets to death and Ali Tokman to life imprisonment," Yusril said. "But will they be granted pardon? Will they be granted remission, clemency, and so on? That actually depend to the Dutch government," he said.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
