Pakistani PRIME Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif described Israel’s continued brutal aggression in Gaza as unparalleled in world history.
Sharif also stated that global peace and prosperity was impossible without stopping the ongoing massacre in the besieged enclave.
Sharif conveyed this on Thursday (31/10) when he met the Emir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani in Doha to discuss bilateral and regional issues including the case of the Israeli genocide in Gaza and increasing tensions in the Middle East.
He praised Qatar’s principled stance on the Gaza conflict and its continuous efforts to promote peace and stability in the region.
Apart from that, Sharif also discussed increasing cooperation between the two countries in the fields of trade, investment, energy and cultural exchanges during the meeting, according to a statement issued by the Prime Minister’s Office.
The two leaders also agreed to enhance the strategic partnership between the two countries.
Previously, Sharif also met with Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani and discussed ways to further strengthen bilateral relations, especially with a focus on increasing cooperation in various sectors.
The Qatari Prime Minister highlighted the importance of Pakistan’s strategic position in the region and expressed enthusiasm for strengthening ties with Pakistan in line with Qatar’s vision for economic growth and regional stability, the statement said.
He also showed his country’s determination to work with Pakistan for peace in the region, including Afghanistan.
Sharif also extended an invitation to Qatari investors to explore Pakistan’s diverse economic sectors, including agriculture, information technology and tourism. (Ant/Z-2)

**Interview with Dr. Amina Malik, International Relations Expert**
**Host:** Welcome, Dr. Malik. Thank you for joining us today to discuss the recent statements by Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif regarding the situation in Gaza.
**Dr. Malik:** Thank you for having me. It’s a crucial topic that needs attention.
**Host:** Prime Minister Sharif described Israel’s actions in Gaza as “unparalleled in world history.” What do you think he meant by this?
**Dr. Malik:** Sharif’s choice of words highlights the severity and scale of the violence in Gaza. He is drawing attention to the significant humanitarian crisis that many believe has reached alarming levels. By using the term “unparalleled,” he emphasizes that the destruction and suffering occurring now is beyond what we have seen in previous conflicts.
**Host:** He also mentioned that global peace and prosperity are impossible without ending the massacre in Gaza. How does this statement reflect the broader implications of the conflict?
**Dr. Malik:** It underscores the interconnectedness of global stability and regional conflicts. Sharif suggests that as long as such violence persists, it hampers not just the lives of those in the affected areas but also poses threats to overall international peace. This is a call to action for global leaders to address the conflict before it escalates further.
**Host:** The meeting with Emir of Qatar included discussions on Israeli actions and increasing tensions in the Middle East. How do you think these discussions could influence international responses to the conflict?
**Dr. Malik:** Qatar has historically played a mediating role in Middle Eastern conflicts, so their discussions could lead to new initiatives or support for peaceful resolutions. If Pakistan and Qatar align their diplomatic efforts and call for accountability, it could shift international attention and pressure other countries to take a firmer stance against the violence.
**Host:** what can the international community do to respond to the situation in Gaza effectively?
**Dr. Malik:** The international community needs to prioritize humanitarian aid and push for a ceasefire. Additionally, diplomatic pressure on all parties involved is crucial to ensure that negotiations can take place. It involves not just highlighting the issues but also facilitating dialogue to arrive at a sustainable peace process.
**Host:** Thank you, Dr. Malik, for your insightful perspectives on this urgent issue. Your expertise helps us better understand the complexities at play.
**Dr. Malik:** Thank you for having me. It’s essential to keep these conversations going.
