Pakistan Seeks to Address Kashmir Issue and Champion Peace at UN Security Council

Pakistan, as its term as president of the UN Security Council draws to a close, is preparing to hold an open debate on the peaceful settlement of global disputes. The nation aims to pass a resolution promoting mechanisms for peaceful conflict resolution.

Highlighting Kashmir While Seeking Broad Support

While the resolution is widely seen as a move to bring the Kashmir issue to the forefront, it’s expected to be framed in general terms to avoid potential vetoes from other permanent members of the council. The focus will likely be on broad principles of peaceful settlement applicable to various international disputes.

Strengthening International Cooperation

In addition to the open debate, Pakistan will also host an event aimed at bolstering cooperation between the United Nations and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). This event is viewed as a strategic move by Islamabad to gather support for its stance on the Kashmir issue within the international community.
