Parliament passes resolution urging neutrality in Yemen crisis

Islamabad: Pakistan’s parliament on Friday urged the government to stay out of the conflict in Yemen, rejecting Saudi demands for Islamabad to join its coalition against Huthi rebels.

A unanimous resolution passed by a special session of parliament backed the government’s commitment to protect Saudi Arabia’s territory, which has so far not been threatened by the conflict.

But it said Pakistan should play a mediating role and not get involved in fighting — turning down longstanding ally Riyadh’s request for troops, ships and warplanes.

“Parliament of Pakistan… underscores the need for continued efforts by the government of Pakistan to find a peaceful resolution of the crisis,” the resolution said.

“(Parliament) desires that Pakistan should maintain neutrality in the Yemen conflict so as to be able to play a proactive diplomatic role to end the crisis.”.

Salient features of the resolution:

1. Appreciates the decision of the Government to call the Joint Sitting of Parliament to consider Pakistan’s response to the crisis in Yemen;

2. Expresses serious concern on the deteriorating security and humanitarian situation in Yemen and its implications for peace and stability of the region and supports all humanitarian initiatives aimed at bringing relief to the people caught in the conflict;

3. Calls upon the warring factions in Yemen to resolve their differences peacefully through dialogue;

4. Appreciates the arrangements made by the Government for the safe and swift evacuation of Pakistanis and nationals of many other countries from Yemen and expresses its gratitude to the People’s Republic of China for its contribution in this regard;

5. Apprehends that the crisis in Yemen could plunge the region into turmoil;

6. Supports regional and international efforts for restoration of peace and stability in Yemen;

7. Underscores the need for continued efforts by the Government of Pakistan to find a peaceful resolution of the crisis while promoting the unity of Muslim Ummah, in cooperation with the leaders of other Muslim countries;

8. Desires that Pakistan should maintain neutrality in the Yemen conflict so as to be able to play proactive diplomatic role to end the crisis;

9. Urges the Muslim Ummah and the international community to intensify their efforts to promote peace in Yemen;

10. Expresses unequivocal support for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and affirms that in case of any violation of its territorial integrity or any threat to Haramain Sharifain, Pakistan will stand shoulder to shoulder with Saudi Arabia and its people;

11. Expresses deep concern at the increasing threats posed by different terrorist groups and non state actors to the security and stability of the region and advises the Government of Pakistan to enhance its friendship and cooperation with the GCC and all other regional countries in combating extremism and terrorism; and

12. Desires that the Government of Pakistan initiate steps to move the UN Security Council and the OIC to bring about an immediate ceasefire in Yemen. (PhotoNews / Agencies)
