ISLAMABAD: Minister of State Hina Rabbani Khar called for addressing the unresolved disputes and legitimate aspirations of developing countries for a more inclusive and representative world order, ARY News reported.
The minister of state was a keynote speaker at the Public Panel on “what the next world order could look like”.
The minister of state, addressing the Annual Meeting of the European Council for Foreign Relations in Stockholm, regretted that at a time when the world needed to confront modern challenges with a united front, it was presenting a picture of a house divided due to great power competition.
stressed the dire need for the international community to join hands to realize the much-elusive SDGs, face the impending climate-related crises and avert the possible next pandemics.
She underscored that developing countries, in particular, felt threatened by the global power contestation.
The major reason, she explained, was that instead of bringing the world together to meet common threats, the major powers were preoccupied with dividing the world into “us” and “them” in a race for political supremacy.
The minister of state called for a competition for finding solutions to common problems faced by the international community, instead of a competition for political hegemony.
MoS Hina Rabbani Khar called for addressing the unresolved disputes and legitimate aspirations of developing countries for a more inclusive and representative world order.
