Islamabad: Pakistan is watching the ongoing developments in the Middle East with deep concern, but now there is an urgent need to stabilize the situation and restore peace.
According to the Foreign Office spokesperson, for several months, Pakistan has emphasized the need for international efforts to bring peace to the region and a ceasefire in Gaza.
Pakistan had pointed to the attack on the Iranian consular office in Syria on April 2 as a major tension in the region and today’s developments show a breakdown in diplomacy.
They also illustrate the serious implications in cases where the UN Security Council is unable to fulfill its obligations to maintain international peace and security.
The spokesperson said that we call on all parties to exercise utmost restraint and move towards de-escalation.
