Pakistan’s Parliamentary Delegation Engages in Key Meetings with US Congressmen

Washington: A high-level Pakistan’s Parliamentary delegation led by PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari held a series of significant meetings with members of the U.S. Congress on Capitol Hill. During these discussions, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari briefed the members on India’s recent acts of unprovoked aggression, including the targeting of civilians and the deeply concerning, unilateral suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, a clear breach of international law.

According to Radio Pakistan, he extended appreciation to the United States, particularly President Donald Trump, for his constructive role in helping de-escalate tensions and supporting efforts towards a ceasefire. Bilawal Bhutto Zardari emphasized that sustainable peace in South Asia hinges on dialogue, restraint, and a just resolution of the Jammu and Kashmir dispute, rather than unilateralism or intimidation.

The Pakistani delegation reiterated Pakistan’s principled stance on regional peace, counterterrorism efforts, and recent Indian aggression. They reaffirmed Pakistan’s commitment to peace, responsible conduct, and rejection of baseless allegations. The delegation underscored the urgency of dialogue on Jammu and Kashmir, an unfinished agenda of the United Nations, and stressed the imperative of respect for international law, UNSC resolutions, and the Indus Waters Treaty.

Members of Congress welcomed the Pakistani delegation, urging both countries to demonstrate restraint and prioritize regional peace and stability. They reiterated the U.S. support for the people of Pakistan and its commitment to aiding the country’s economic development.
