The summit was convened in response to Israel’s recent attack on Qatar.
During the cordial meeting, both leaders discussed the emerging situation following Israel’s aggression.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif strongly condemned Israel’s actions, terming them a deliberate attempt to derail peace efforts in the Middle East.
He expressed deep appreciation for Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s leadership in uniting the Muslim Ummah during this critical time and assured Pakistan’s full diplomatic support, particularly at the United Nations Security Council, where Pakistan is a non-permanent member, as well as in other multilateral forums, including the OIC.
The Prime Minister emphasized that the Emergency Arab-Islamic Summit had conveyed a strong message of unity from Muslims worldwide against Israel’s unlawful and reckless aggression that threatens regional peace and stability.
He also reaffirmed the historic and fraternal ties between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, thanking the Kingdom for its unwavering support through challenging times.
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman welcomed the Prime Minister’s upcoming state visit to Riyadh later this week, noting it would provide an opportunity for a comprehensive exchange of views on bilateral, regional, and global matters.
He also appreciated Pakistan’s active diplomatic role at the UNSC and OIC in demonstrating solidarity with Qatar.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif conveyed warm respects and regards for The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, His Majesty King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.
