Pakistan has welcomed the positive developments under the Board of Peace towards the implementation of the Gaza Peace Plan.

In a statement, Foreign Office Spokesperson Tahir Andrabi on Saturday said Pakistan also appreciates the mediating countries, including the United States of America, Egypt, Qatar, and Türkiye, for their sustained efforts and expects that these developments will result in the full implementation of all commitments under the Gaza Peace Plan.

He said Pakistan trusts that these efforts will contribute to the realization of the inalienable right of the Palestinian people to self-determination through a credible, time-bound political process, consistent with international law, international legitimacy, and the relevant United Nations resolutions.

He emphasized that this process should culminate in the establishment of an independent, sovereign, contiguous, and viable State of Palestine, based on the pre-1967 borders, with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its Capital.

A day ago, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif also said that Pakistan welcomes developments under the Board of Peace towards implementation of the process of disarmament under the Gaza Peace Plan.

In a post on social media platform X, he said the mediating countries, including the United States of America, Egypt, Qatar, and Turkiye, deserve special appreciation for their efforts in achieving this progress.

The prime minister said under President Donald Trump’s courageous leadership, this represents a significant achievement for the Board of Peace.

He said Pakistan hopes that with these developments, concrete steps will be taken towards implementing all commitments under the Gaza Peace Plan.

Shehbaz said Pakistan also hopes that these efforts will lead to the realization of the right to self-determination of the people of Palestine, through a credible, time-bound political process, consistent with international legitimacy and relevant UN resolutions, resulting in the establishment of an independent, sovereign, and contiguous State of Palestine, based on the pre-1967 borders with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital.
