Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari urged the UNSC to follow its Kashmir decisions and promote peace in the region.
Speaking on “International peace and security “Reformed Multilateralism” in the Security Council, the foreign minister said Kashmir was left unaddressed.
We believe it is a global agenda, an agenda of this UNSC, and if you want to see the success of the multilateral institution or multilateralism and the success of this very Council, surely you can aid in this process; allow the implementation of the resolutions of the UNSC, when it comes to the question of Kashmir, prove the multilateralism can succeed, prove that the UNSC can succeed and deliver peace in the region,” he added.
“It would serve the institution to democratize further and to allow the sovereign quality of all and not the superiority of some,” the foreign minister said, adding: “It does not serve the purposes of the UN to add more members to its elitist club and to expand the tyrannical power of veto.”
FM Bilawal Bhutto said the world’s attention must shift from limited national objectives to global risks and challenges: climate change, the nuclear threat, terrorism, refugees and migration, starvation and hunger, and the exploitation of the metaverse.
“Simultaneously, we must confront the rise of the ideologies of hate, xenophobia, populist extremism and racial and religious intolerance, including Islamophobia, which imposes discrimination and violence, and even threats of genocide, against vulnerable minorities in certain countries,” he added.
