PM Shehbaz Sharif has stated that  President Trump’s leadership during dialogue process reflected his commitment to world peace: Expresses concern over provocations at Masjid Al-Aqsa. Pakistan has welcomed the much-desired Gaza ceasefire deal reached between Hamas and Israel, a major step towards ending the genocide of Palestinians which claimed tens of thousands of lives unleashing a humanitarian crisis.

In a post uploaded on his X account on Thursday morning, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif wrote: “The announcement of an agreement that will bring an end to the genocide in Gaza is a historic opportunity to secure lasting peace in the Middle East.” The Gaza peace agreement, to be signed Thursday (today), also calls for Israel to release hundreds of Palestinian prisoners as well as prompt a surge of aid into Gaza after more than two years of Israeli barbarism.

“President Trump’s leadership throughout the process of dialogue and negotiations reflects his unwavering commitment to world peace,” PM Shehbaz Sharif said and added “The resolute and wise leaders of Qatar, Egypt and Turkiye are also to be applauded for their untiring efforts to negotiate a deal.” The prime minister further said “Most of all, we must all pay tribute to the Palestinian people — who have suffered in an unprecedented manner, one that should never, ever be repeated.”

Shehbaz Sharif maintained “I also note with grave concern, and strongly condemn, the recent provocations at Masjid Al-Aqsa. The world must hold the occupiers and illegal settlers to account and prevent any further actions that undermine the enormous efforts made by President Trump to reduce tensions and pave the way for lasting peace.” He said “We will continue to work with partners, friends and the leaders of brotherly nations to ensure that peace, security and dignity for the Palestinian people are established in accordance with their wishes and UN resolutions.”
