FM Araghchi hold very useful, comprehensive and insightful discussions with Pakistani high-level political and military officials (PM Shehbaz Sharif, DPM & FM Mohammad Ishaq Dar and Chief of Army Staff General Sayed Asim Munir Ahmed Shah)  on bilateral relations between the two neighboring Muslim nations, and on the critical situation in the region.

 

We are pleased & proud that the two nations, as key members of Islamic #Ummah with deeply rooted historical, civilizational, cultural and religious bonds of friendship, enjoy common/very close perspectives on existing opportunities & challenges we face in our vicinity and beyond.

 

We both are serious and resolved to enhance our coordination & cooperation at all levels to identify and utilize opportunities for the good of our nations and to neutralize challenges together.

 

Strengthening bilateral relations in economic, trade and energy sector as well as on border security & counter-terrorism is a must both sides are fully convinced about.

 

#Pakistan's long-standing principled position regarding the Palestinian cause and the right of Palestinian people to self-determination and freedom from yoke of occupation & apartheid, as well as its unequivocal condemnation of Israeli regime's recent aggression against Iran is highly appreciated.

 

The Ministers highlighted the upcoming #OIC Summit in Riadh as a very opportune moment & momentum for mobilizing effective Islamic and human solidarity to use collective capacities & capabilities for stopping Israeli genocide and aggressions and to rein in its dangerous warmongering behaviour in the region.
