Shah Mahmood targets Macron; says, “No one has right to hurt sentiments of Muslims”

by
FM

Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said that the French Ambassador to Pakistan has been summoned to the foreign office (FO) to lodge protest over anti-Islam campaign.

In a statement on Monday, Shah Mahmood has urged the United Nations (UN) to take notice and action against the hate based narrative against Islam.

He said there is resentment in the world over the blasphemous caricatures.

He said irresponsible statement of the French President has added fuel to the fire. He said nobody has the right to hurt the sentiments of millions of Muslims under the garb of freedom of expression.

The Foreign Minister said the seeds of hate that are being cultivated today will polarize the society and have serious consequences.

Such hatred will trigger violent attitudes and further divide societies, the Shah Mahmood said.

On the instructions of the Prime Minister, the Foreign Minister said a comprehensive resolution will be presented at the next meeting of the OIC foreign ministers, proposing to observe 15th March as the international day against Islamophobia.

Yesterday, Prime Minister Imran Khan has written a letter to the CEO of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg, asking him to place a similar ban on Islamophobic and hate triggering content against Islam.

“I am writing to draw your attention to the growing Islamophobia that is encouraging hate, extremism and violence across the world and especially through the use of social media platforms including Facebook,” read the beginning of the letter.

Imran Khan said the message of hate must be banned in total.

He said nor should the world have to wait for a pogrom against Muslims, which is going on in countries like India and in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir, to be completed before Islamophobia is banned.

The Prime Minister said unfortunately, in some states, Muslims are being denied their citizenship rights and their democratic personal choices from dress to worship.

“This in itself is reflective of prejudice and bias that will encourage further radicalization,” the premier concluded.

by
Pakistan

Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi has lauded Prime Minister Imran Khan for exposing Indian brutalities in Indian Occupied Kashmir (IoK).

In a statement regarding Prime Minister’s virtual address to the UN General Assembly, Shah Mahmood Qureshi said Imran Khan apprised the international community about unilateral actions by India in Jammu and Kashmir communication blackout, use of pellet guns against innocent civilians, the imposition of black laws, attempts to change the demography of the area by amending the domicile rules, grave human rights abuses and violation of international laws and Geneva Conventions in IIOJK.

He said the premier had made it clear that New Delhi is playing with peace of the region due to its adversarial polices.

Yesterday, Prime Minister Imran Khan addressed the 75th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) session virtually.

He highlighted the Kashmir Issue once again on the international platform. The premier also discussed how Pakistan has dealt with the coronavirus pandemic.

“Peace is needed to give rights to citizens, We opted for the smart lockdown to save our people from COVID, Government policies aim to increase living standards of citizens, A new arms race is underway between the new opposition forces,” said the PM.

Warning for India:

While addressing the UNGA session, PM Khan warned India against carrying out any misadventure, he said,

“It will be met by a nation that is ready to fight till the end for its freedom.”

He went on to say that India follows the extremist ideology that believes India is only for Hindus and people from other religions are not equal citizens.

“While the Nazis’ hate was directed at the Jews, the RSS directs it at the Muslims, and to a lesser extent, the Christians.”

“The secularism of Gandhi and Nehru has been replaced by the dream of creating a Hindu Rashtra, by subjugating, even cleansing India’s 200 million Muslims and other minorities,” he added.

PM Imran spoke about the RSS’s attempt to destroy the Babri Masjid and the killing of 2,000 Muslims in the Gujarat riots.

“And this was [Gujarat massacre] under the watch of chief minister Modi,” he said.
