He also visited Pakistan last year in August before taking up the prestigious position of UNGA president.
During his visit last year, Bozkir offered his good offices to play a role in resolving the longstanding Kashmir dispute provided parties to the dispute agreed to it, as Prime Minister Imran Khan urged the world body to play its role.
“So if my assistance as the president of the General Assembly is requested by the parties, I will be ready to provide contributions within my mandate,” he said.
Bozkir also praised Pakistan’s remarkable success against Covid-19 pandemic and termed it an example for other countries to follow.
