Pakistan stands with Muslim world as nuclear power: Deputy PM Dar
Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar has said that as a nuclear power and a member of the Muslim Ummah, the country will fulfill its responsibilities to protect regional peace and sovereignty.
He made the remarks in an interview with Al Jazeera, strongly condemning Israel’s strikes on Qatar after Lebanon and Syria.
Dar stressed that there is no justification for targeting a sovereign country, noting Pakistan’s role as a brotherly ally of Qatar. He urged Muslim states to move beyond verbal condemnations and adopt a clear roadmap against Israeli aggression.
“The eyes of the whole world are on this meeting. The Muslim Ummah is expecting this from us,” he said, adding that a ceasefire in Gaza is now urgent as Palestinians face severe humanitarian challenges.
Call for unity among Arab, Muslim states
The deputy PM revealed that Arab countries have already discussed the possibility of forming a joint security force. He emphasized that its aim should be peace and stability, not aggression.
