ISLAMABAD, May 14 (APP): Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi Friday said that the whole nation including all the political parties of Pakistan had unanimity of views when it came the issues of Kashmir and Palestine.
In a telephonic conversation with Ameer of Jamat-e-Islami Sirajul Haq, who phoned him, the foreign minister said the whole Muslim Ummah was concerned over the aggression against the Palestinian worshipping Muslims during the Holy Ramazan.
Both the leaders discussed the Palestinian situation and Muslim unity besides condemning the ongoing Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people.
The foreign minister said Al-Aqsa Mosque was one of the holiest sites for Muslims as well as the first Qibla for them, so its protection was part of their faith.
ضروری ہے کہ پاکستان موجودہ صورتحال میں قائدانہ کردار ادا کرے۔ ترکی، سعودی عرب اور دیگر مسلم ممالک سے رابطہ کرکے مشترکہ حکمت عملی بنائی جائے۔ اقوام متحدہ اور اوآئی سی کے فوری اجلاس طلب کیے جائیں اور ان میں واضح اور دوٹوک موقف اپنایا جائے https://t.co/dInxfI7voi
