ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has accepted an invitation to join the Board of Peace to help promote lasting peace in Gaza, the Foreign Office announced on Wednesday.
According to the statement, Pakistan’s decision is part of its continued support for the implementation of the Gaza Peace Plan under UN Security Council Resolution 2803. The invitation was extended to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif by US President Donald J. Trump.
Pakistan said it hopes the new framework will lead to concrete steps toward a permanent ceasefire, increased humanitarian assistance for Palestinians, and the reconstruction of Gaza.
The Foreign Office reiterated Pakistan’s support for the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people, calling for a credible and time-bound political process in line with UN resolutions. This process, it said, should result in an independent, sovereign, and contiguous State of Palestine based on pre-1967 borders, with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital.
Pakistan expressed its commitment to playing a constructive role in the Board of Peace to help end the suffering of the Palestinian people.
