Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar has said Pakistan will continue to play its role in global peace and security after being elected as the non-permanent member of the united nations security council.
Addressing the foreign diplomats in Islamabad, Ishaq Dar said Pakistan remains committed to un charter in the face of rising challenges.
Foreign Minister extended his gratitude to un security council members for supporting Pakistan.
He said the United Nations faces a crisis of credibility in the face of ongoing situation in Gaza and acts of genocide in Palestine.
He said the un security council bears responsibility to address rising islamophobia and right wing extremism.
Pakistan begins a two-year term as a non-permanent member of the united nations security council for the year 2025-26.
This marks Pakistan’s eighth term on the council, providing an opportunity to shape discussions on pivotal International issues.
It will preside over the council in July, a key opportunity to set the agenda and foster dialogue.
Pakistan will also secure a seat on the Islamic State and Al Qaeda sanctions committee, responsible for designating individuals and groups associated with these organizations as terrorists and imposing sanctions.
This will be a valuable opportunity for Pakistan to highlight cross-border terrorist attacks from Afghanistan by groups with longstanding associations with the militant Islamic State Group and Al Qaeda.
