Minister for Foreign Affairs Shah Mahmood Qureshi on Thursday put up a strong case at the United Nations General Assembly for Palestinians urging the world to move the Security Council to arrange an immediate cessation of Israeli attacks on Gaza.
At the 67th plenary meeting of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, Mr Qureshi spoke about Israeli atrocities against Palestinians.
“There are times in history when decisions of nations are remembered by posterity. This is one such moment,” Qureshi said, as he began his address.
The foreign minister said it was “appalling” that the UN Security Council had been “unable to exercise its primary responsibility” of maintaining international peace and security, adding that it had “failed to demand even a cessation of hostilities”.
