New York: Pakistan will work with the United Nations and all interested states to further develop the concept of peace enforcement.
This was stated by Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, while addressing the UNCOPS Summit 2024 at the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Friday.
The Interior Minister said Pakistan is proud of longstanding contributions to the UN peacekeeping. He said Pakistan is committed to peacekeeping partnership especially with the African Union and the OIC.
He said in today's dangerous time, the world faced threats of forced foreign interventions, suppression of freedom struggles, poverty, inequality, global tensions, military tensions and nuclear arms race.
Mohsin Naqvi said preventive diplomacy should focus on addressing the root cause of conflicts. He said the UN peacekeeping missions face increasing challenges from terrorist groups, tribal rivalries and threats to safety.
He said Pakistan agrees with the cause of series and broad-based future reflection of the UN peacekeeping.
The Minister suggested that peacekeeping missions must be part of an overall political strategy, which seeks to address and resolve the cause of conflict and violence.
He said the mandate of the UN peacekeeping must be responsive to the special circumstances or situations.
He added that each mission should be provided with adequate human and material resources and advanced capabilities like radars and early warning intelligence.
Mohsin Naqvi said improvement can be made in command and control structure especially to ensure timely response to attacks against civilians and peacekeepers.
He said the collective mission of the UN peacekeepers is clear to foster international cooperation in safeguarding communities and ensuring the security of nations.
The Minister said the strength of our partnership lies in our mutual dedication to peace, security and justice.
