The dossier called on international powers to compel India to cease human rights violations. PM Kakar emphasized Pakistan’s commitment to international peace, stating, “Pakistan is emerging as a responsible state, and we’ll continue playing our role for international peace.”
Discussing climate change, the caretaker prime minister emphasized the need for robust collaboration globally to combat this challenge. Kakar urged world powers to address the Kashmir and Palestine issues, condemning Israel for committing genocide in Palestine, particularly against innocent children.
He emphasized the necessity for justice for the Palestinians, stating, “The world must ensure justice for the Palestinians.”
