Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif told the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) that Pakistan seeks peace in the region after defeating India in the May conflict.
“We have won the war, and now we want to win peace in our part of the world. This is my most sincere and serious offer before the world nations,” he said in New York.
The PM recalled that Pakistan and India fought their worst battle in decades after New Delhi launched attacks following the Pahalgam incident. India accused Pakistan, but Islamabad strongly denied involvement.
Sharif said Pakistan’s armed forces and air force responded with bravery, destroying seven Indian jets and defending the nation under Article 51 of the UN Charter. He praised the sacrifices of soldiers and martyrs, calling their courage “a wall of unity.”
Despite military success, Pakistan agreed to a ceasefire brokered by former US President Donald Trump, whom Shehbaz credited for preventing a bigger war in South Asia. Pakistan even nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in promoting peace.
Sharif also criticized Israel’s actions in Gaza, calling them genocidal, and urged the international community to act.
On India, the prime minister renewed Pakistan’s offer for comprehensive and result-oriented talks on all outstanding issues, including water disputes. He stressed that South Asia needs proactive leadership, not provocative actions.
