Pakistan has condemned Israel for its unjustified and slanderous attacks on UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, barring him from entering the country and declaring him ‘persona non grata.’
Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN in New York, Munir Akram in an interview with APP said Pakistan stands in full solidarity with the UN Secretary-General and commends his principled and courageous stance on the situation in the Middle East, particularly the atrocities in Gaza and the aggression against Lebanon.
He said the UN is a pillar of world order.
Munir Akram said insult and abuse is the weapon of aggressors and oppressors.
He further said Israel’s aggression in Gaza has killed over 41,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and its new offensive against Lebanon has also caused thousands of casualties as well as massive displacement of people there.
