Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar will leave for Qatar within hours to attend an emergency meeting of Arab and Islamic foreign ministers. The high-level gathering will take place in Doha and aims to address the recent Israeli attacks on Qatar. According to diplomatic sources, Dar’s visit shows Pakistan’s growing role in regional diplomacy during times of crisis. Preparations for his visit are complete, and he will represent Pakistan’s official stance at the summit.
The emergency meeting, scheduled for tomorrow, comes in response to Israeli airstrikes on Qatari territory earlier this month. These attacks have triggered serious concern across the Muslim world. Leaders from Arab and Islamic countries will gather to assess the situation and explore ways to respond. The conference will also address the ongoing violence in Gaza and increasing Israeli aggression. This meeting is expected to result in a unified statement against the escalation.
During his speech, Ishaq Dar will strongly condemn the Israeli attacks and declare Pakistan’s full support for Qatar. He will also highlight Pakistan’s consistent position on Palestine and call for collective action. Moreover, Dar is likely to stress the need for Muslim unity against foreign aggression. His message will align with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s recent diplomatic efforts. Pakistan aims to show that its support for regional allies is firm and unwavering.
The foreign ministers’ meeting is expected to discuss a joint strategy against Israeli aggression. Participants will likely demand an immediate end to attacks on Gaza and the West Bank. The group may also call for international pressure on Israel to stop its expansionist agenda. Discussions will cover humanitarian concerns, including forced evictions of Palestinians. The ministers plan to adopt a coordinated response and urge the UN to take action.
Earlier this week, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif also visited Qatar to express solidarity. His meeting with the Emir of Qatar reaffirmed strong ties between the two nations. The prime minister strongly condemned Israel’s actions, calling them a violation of Qatar’s sovereignty. Now, Ishaq Dar’s visit will reinforce that message at a multilateral forum. Pakistan continues to call for peace, justice, and protection of human rights in the region.
