Dar on US-Iran peace efforts…
Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar on Thursday urged the international community not to let the recent diplomatic gains in the Gulf go to waste, saying “we must not let this opportunity slip through our hands”, as he called for sustained dialogue to secure lasting peace, according to a post shared by the Foreign Office.
Addressing the 33rd ASEAN Regional Forum Ministerial Meeting, Dar said the recent developments in the Gulf had affected countries across the region and stressed that Pakistan had done “everything within its capacity” to help restore peace and stability.
“We cannot afford to ignore these developments,” he said.
Dar said Pakistan had played its role in facilitating the ceasefire by convening the Islamabad Talks after 47 years, followed by the signing of the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding in Burgenstock.
“We deeply appreciate the confidence entrusted in Pakistan by the United States, Iran, Gulf countries, and all our friends to steer these efforts,” he said.
