Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has underlined Pakistan’s role in Trump’s Gaza peace efforts, emphasizing the country’s active participation in global discussions aimed at ending the suffering of Palestinians and restoring peace in Gaza. Speaking to overseas Pakistanis in London, he said that Pakistan had effectively conveyed the concerns of its people at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), where both the Gaza crisis and the Kashmir dispute were raised prominently.
Pakistan’s Role in Trump’s Gaza Peace Efforts
PM Shehbaz made it clear that Pakistan’s role in Trump’s Gaza peace efforts was part of a broader vision to support oppressed nations and ensure that their voices were heard at international platforms. He recalled how, during his recent meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump, he reiterated Pakistan’s consistent stance on peace in Palestine and highlighted the devastating humanitarian toll.
Citing figures, the prime minister said more than 64,000 Palestinians had lost their lives during Israel’s ongoing onslaught. He called for an immediate end to the conflict and reaffirmed Pakistan’s solidarity with the Palestinian people.
Diplomatic Achievements at the UNGA
Shehbaz Sharif emphasized that his speech at the UNGA was an extension of Pakistan’s role in Trump’s Gaza peace efforts. He highlighted both the plight of Palestinians and the longstanding Kashmir issue, ensuring that the global community recognized these crises as pressing challenges to international peace and security.
In his address, he likened Pakistan’s progress to a team effort: “Every team needs a captain, but if ten players do not play their role, the captain cannot do anything.” This, he explained, reflected Pakistan’s new approach to tackling challenges collectively at home and abroad.
Strengthening Relations with the United States
The prime minister also pointed out that Pakistan’s relations with the United States had entered a constructive phase following his meeting with President Trump. By participating in Trump’s Gaza peace efforts, Pakistan had positioned itself as a responsible global partner. This engagement, he said, would help open doors for stronger diplomatic and economic cooperation between the two countries.
Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar further revealed that President Trump had also met with Muslim leaders to discuss Gaza. The dialogue, he added, offered hope for a peaceful solution and showed that Pakistan’s diplomatic push was yielding results.
Economic Progress Alongside Diplomatic Initiatives
Beyond diplomacy, PM Shehbaz underscored Pakistan’s economic turnaround. He noted that the economy, which had once struggled, was now showing signs of stability and growth. Ishaq Dar reinforced this with concrete statistics:
- Interest rates fell from 22% to 11%.
- Inflation dropped sharply to 5%.
- International financial forums acknowledged Pakistan’s policy reforms.
Dar also reminded the audience that during Nawaz Sharif’s tenure, Pakistan had ranked as the world’s 24th largest economy. He credited the current government for preventing a default and laying the groundwork for continued economic recovery.
This economic resilience, paired with Pakistan’s role in Trump’s Gaza peace efforts, highlighted how the country was advancing simultaneously on both domestic and international fronts.
The Contribution of Overseas Pakistanis
PM Shehbaz called expatriates a “valuable national asset,” praising their dedication to supporting Pakistan’s development. He acknowledged their contributions through remittances, investments, and advocacy for Pakistan abroad. “You are great Pakistanis serving your country with dedication,” he told the audience, emphasizing that the strength of overseas communities was vital in building Pakistan’s image internationally.
For overseas Pakistanis, learning about Pakistan’s role in Trump’s Gaza peace efforts reaffirmed that their homeland was committed to humanitarian causes and global peace, strengthening their pride and connection with the country.
A Vision for Peace and Progress
The prime minister painted a vision of Pakistan advancing through “sincere and coordinated teamwork.” By actively participating in Trump’s Gaza peace efforts, Pakistan had shown that it was not just a passive observer but a proactive player in addressing global humanitarian crises.
This dual approach — promoting peace internationally while strengthening economic foundations domestically — reflects Pakistan’s broader strategy for national resilience and global credibility.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s remarks in London provided clarity on Pakistan’s role in Trump’s Gaza peace efforts. From raising the plight of Palestinians at the UN to engaging directly with the U.S. president, Pakistan has demonstrated a commitment to justice and peace.
Alongside these diplomatic strides, economic stability, reduced inflation, and falling interest rates showcased a country working toward prosperity at home. With expatriates playing their part and the government emphasizing teamwork, Pakistan is building momentum for both domestic progress and international recognition.
As PM Shehbaz stated, teamwork lies at the foundation of success — and Pakistan’s role in Trump’s Gaza peace efforts is a testament to how collective efforts can amplify the voices of the oppressed and contribute to global peace.
