A Pakistan’s diplomatic mission led by Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has completed its visit to New York and arrived in Washington, D.C.
The nine-member delegation, led by Bilawal Bhutto, proceeded by rail from New York to Washington. When the party arrived at the Washington railway station, they were greeted by senior members of Pakistan’s diplomatic service.
According to media , the delegation will remain in Washington until June 6. During the tour, the delegation will discuss Pakistan’s case with US officials and think tanks.
Bilawal Bhutto is also set to meet with media representatives and brief US authorities on India’s water aggression and provocative behavior.
He is anticipated to thank the Trump administration for its prior offer to mediate the Kashmir dispute and encourage them to seek a peaceful conclusion.
He would underline that the Kashmir issue must be resolved in compliance with UN resolutions and the aspirations of the Kashmiri people.
Earlier during the New York leg of the visit, the delegation met with the UN Secretary-General, President of the General Assembly, members of the UN Security Council, and ambassadors from the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).
Additionally, a high-level Pakistani delegation, led by Special Assistant Syed Tariq Fatemi, will visit Moscow in upcoming days to communicate Islamabad’s position on recent regional developments and promote diplomatic peace.
The trip to Russia is a component of a larger diplomatic outreach that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif started.
As part of this outreach, a multi-party delegation led by Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, the chairman of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and a former foreign minister, has been sent to Western capitals, including New York, Washington, D.C., London, and Brussels.
Mr. Fatemi’s delegation will meet with top Russian officials, think tanks, and media representatives to emphasize Pakistan’s “responsible and peaceful stance” in contrast to India’s “irresponsible and aggressive actions”.
