Islamabad, Sept. 24 (Online): Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi has called for a regional approach to meet the common challenges including Covid-19, food insecurity, locust invasion and climate change. He was virtually addressing the meeting of SAARC Council of Ministers on the sidelines of 75th session of the UN General Assembly.<\/p>\n

The Foreign Minister reiterated Pakistan’s willingness to host the 19th SAARC summit in Islamabad at the earliest. He expressed the hope that the artificial obstacles created in its way would be removed and SAARC would be enabled to function as an effective instrument of regional cooperation.<\/p>\n

The Foreign Minister said Pakistan, being a founding member of SAARC, has always attached great importance to this platform and remains committed to the principles and objectives of the SAARC Charter.<\/p>\n

Shah Mahmood Qureshi said Pakistan has always been supportive of the idea of upgrading the Observer Status to Dialogue partners of those Observer Countries that are actively engaged with SAARC Countries and that can play an important role in the development of the region, especially in the context of post-pandemic economic recovery.
\nHighlighting Pakistan’s success against Covid-19, the Foreign Minister said though Pakistan may have controlled the Pandemic within its boundaries, it believes that a regional approach is needed to stop the spread of Covid-19 and save lives and livelihoods of the people of South Asia.<\/p>\n

Shah Mahmood Qureshi stressed for peaceful resolution of outstanding disputes to achieve development, economic growth, poverty alleviation and social uplift of masses. In this context, we strongly emphasize the importance of faithfully following the UN Charter and implementing UN Security Council Resolutions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
