Pakistan has begun its presidency of the United Nations Security Council, marking its first since 2013. This month-long presidency aligns with Pakistan's two-year term as a non-permanent member. Although largely symbolic, it comes during a period of increased geopolitical tensions. Pakistan's Permanent Representative to the UN emphasized the country's commitment to peaceful conflict resolution and collective action in accordance with the UN Charter. The presidency also presents an opportunity for Pakistan to address tensions with India, particularly regarding Kashmir, amidst preparations by India to counter this presidency.
Pakistan is going to assume the presidency of the United Nations Security Council at a time of global tumult marked by growing instability, escalating conflicts, complex geopolitical and geostrategic landscape, and serious threats to international peace and security.
We will closely work with other Council members in a spirit of cooperation for collective and timely action in line with the UN Charter and corresponding to the expectations of the international community.
