Emphasizing Kashmiris right to self-determination on Friday Prime Minister Pakistan Imran Khan asked United Nations to play its role in stopping atrocities and human rights violations in Indian Occupied Kashmir failing which may lead to nuclear war between two neighboring countries.
Reiterating during his addressing to the UN General Assembly Session, Khan said India must lift the curfew imposed in occupied Kashmir for the last 53 days and release all the political detainees, especially 30,000 youth who have been picked by the occupying forces.
According to Radio Pakistan, Prime Minister warned the world community of the serious consequences of a war between two nuclear armed countries saying when a nuclear armed country fights to the end, the consequences will be far beyond the borders.
Imran Khan said if a conventional war starts between the two countries anything could happen. A country seven times smaller in size has only two choices; either to surrender or fight till death.
Imran Khan highlighted that Islamophobia is another major issue that is impacting the Muslims worldwide, especially in the Western countries, after 9/11, adding that terms like Islamic radicalism, Islamic terrorism are used by some leaders without realization, which are a contributing factor in spread of hatred against Muslims.
He said this thing is marginalizing Muslim communities in certain Muslim countries, and marginalization leads to radicalization. He said there is only one Islam. He was of the view that a certain section of the Western world deliberately provoked such thing but vast majority of ordinary citizens had no role in it.
Referring to the state of Madinah that was established by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as his role model, the Prime Minister said the state was catered for the welfare of all segments of the society. “The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) lives in our hearts. We Muslims believe that pain of heart is much more than physical pain”, Khan maintained.
Prime Minister Pakistan pointed out that another global problem is siphoning of money from developing world by the corrupt elite and reaching to advanced countries, adding this causes more poverty, debt and destruction in developing countries.
He said money laundering is not treated the same as money of drugs or terror financing and urged the developed world to build wall against the economic refugees. Khan also urged the United Nations to take the lead in countering the challenge posed by climate change.
He regretted there is lack of seriousness and perhaps world leaders do not realize the urgency of the situation and warned if this keeps going and if nothing is done humans will face a huge catastrophe.
