At the UN, Pakistan has urged early diplomacy and stronger UN mediation architecture for lasting peace.

The call was made by Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN Asim Iftikhar Ahmad during the UN General Debate on Strengthening the Role of Mediation in the Peaceful Settlement of Disputes and Conflict Prevention and Resolution.

The Ambassador highlighted that Pakistan stood for restraint, de-escalation and a return to diplomacy in the recent crisis in the Middle East.

He said as a friendly neighbour of Iran, a brotherly partner of the Gulf countries, and a country with longstanding ties of amity with the United States, Pakistan continues to make sincere efforts to facilitate a durable solution for regional and global peace and stability.
