UNITED NATIONS: The UN General Assembly suggested on Wednesday to stricture Russia over its irruption of Ukraine, demanded that Moscow stop fighting, and prompted it to incontinently withdraw its military forces.

Still, in a precisely- articulated statement on the Ukrainian extremity, delivered in the UN General Assembly (UNGA) on Wednesday, Pakistan emphasized the need to cover the territorial integrity of a state without hanging the public interests of another.

Although an inviting maturity, 141, suggested for the resolution, it remains non-binding as a resolution has to be approved by the UN Security Council to be binding.

Besides Russia, four other countries also suggested against the resolution while 35 countries, including Pakistan, abstained.

Munir Akram says Islamabad‘most concerned over the safety of citizens, scholars still in Ukraine.

On the first two days of this exigency session on Ukraine, Pakistan watched precisely as state after state criticized Russia for overrunning Ukraine and deman­ded immediate pullout of all Russian colors from the engaged home.

“ Pakistan is committed to the abecedarian principles of the UN Charter tone- determination of peoples, non-use or trouble of use of force, sovereignty and territorial integrity of States, and pacific agreement of controversies,” Pakistan’s UN Ambassador Munir Akram told the exigency session.

“ Inversely, Pakistan upholds the principle of equal and inseparable security for all. These principles must be constantly and widely admired.”

Besides Russia, four other countries also suggested against the resolution while 35 countries, including Pakistan, abstained.

Three other South Asian nations, India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka, abstained, although Nepal suggested the US-backed resolution.

China, major world power and one of the five endless members of the UN Security Council, also abstained.

This would relieve Pakistan’s fear of being insulated on an issue that has forced Islamabad not to bounce with the US as it seeks to ameliorate its profitable ties with Russia.

The pressure on Pakistan, and other UN members who were avoiding taking sides on this delicate issue, increased on Tuesday when further than 100 diplomats from 40 nations walked out during Russia’s foreign minister spoke at the Human Rights Council.

Also on Tuesday, Pakistan Foreign Office entered a largely unusual letter from top diplomats of 22 countries, prompting Islamabad to support a UNGA resolution condemning Russia’s aggression and demanding its immediate pullout.

The signatories included EU member countries and major non-European powers, similar to Australia, Canada, and Japan.

Before Thursday, Prime Minister Imran Khan met with his top helpers in Islamabad to bandy the evolving situation in Ukraine and Pakistan’s position on the conflict.

The meeting was attended by Planning Minister Asad Umar, Energy Minister Hammad Azhar, Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry, and the three services chiefs and Foreign Secretary Sohail Mahmood briefed the actors on the Ukraine conflict.

The information minister told Dawn after the meeting that the sitting had approved the textbook of the speech to be delivered by Pakistan’s endless representative.

He said it was decided that Pakistan would reiterate its station opposing aggression, and emphasizing tactfulness for resolution of conflicts. Pakistan, he said, it was decided would hesitate during the voting on the resolution for stopping Russia’s aggression.

The statement refocused out that in his rearmost commentary on the issue, Prime Minister Imran Khan had rued the situation between Russia and Ukraine, hoping that tactfulness could forestall military conflict.

“ We’ve since constantly stressed the need for de-escalation, renewed accommodations, sustained dialogue, and nonstop tactfulness,” Ambassador Akram said.

“ All sweats must be made to avoid further escalation of violence and loss of life as well as military, political and profitable pressures, which can pose unknown trouble to transnational peace and security and global profitable stability.

“ We hope the addresses initiated between representatives of the Russian Federation and Ukraine will succeed in bringing about a conclusion of conflict and normalisation of the situation,” he said.

“ A politic results in agreement with applicable multinational agreements, transnational law, and vittles of the UN Charter is necessary.”

Ambassador Akram refocused out that “ Pakistan also supports all sweats to give philanthropic relief to civilians in the affected areas”.

The Pakistan government, he said, was most concerned about the safety and weal of Pakistani citizens and scholars in Ukraine, noting that utmost of them had been vacated. “ Those remaining will be vacated soonest,” said Mr. Akram, adding that Pakistan appreciated the cooperation of the Ukrainian authorities as well as the Polish, Romanian and Hungarian governments in this environment.
