NEW YORK: At the United Nation, Pakistan says it will continue supporting all international efforts that sought promotion of fair and equitable solutions to disarmament and non-proliferation challenges.
This was stated by Pakistan’s delegate Khalil Hashmi during a day-long General Assembly high-level meeting held in New York to commemorate the International Day for Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons.
He said Pakistan is fully committed to the goal of nuclear disarmament, which is universal, non-discriminatory and verifiable.
Urging North Korea to fully comply with all Security Council resolutions and to abandon its nuclear programme, Khalil Hashmi said recent nuclear tests underscored a global need to restrain all such activities.
Other speakers emphasized the urgent need for firm political will to advance towards the total elimination of all nuclear weapons.
