Iranian President Urges Muslim Cooperation in Pakistan Visit
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – During an official visit to Pakistan, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian called for unity and collaboration among Muslims in the scientific, industrial, and agricultural fields to effectively address the needs of Islamic nations and stand against external pressures.
In a meeting with Leader of the Pakistan Muslim League Muhammad Nawaz Sharif, held in Lahore on Saturday, Pezeshkian said, “We must share our scientific, industrial, and agricultural capabilities and work together to meet the needs of the Islamic community by forming a united bloc.”
Pezeshkian reiterated his appreciation for the support and solidarity shown by the people of Pakistan during the 12-day war imposed by the Israeli regime, stating that if Muslims around the world unite, the Zionist regime will no longer be able to target independent nations separately, the president’s official website reported.
For his part, Nawaz Sharif praised the resilience of the Iranian people in the face of the recent attacks by the Israeli regime.
“We stand firmly with the Islamic Republic of Iran, and in the future, we will stand stronger than ever. The Iranian people, through their steadfast resistance, have not only defended their homeland but have also showcased a proud and renewed image of Iran. This resistance was not mere opposition to a regime; it represented a courageous confrontation with global powers. The people of Iran have revived their glorious history of thousands of years through their unwavering spirit. In Pakistan, we regard this resistance as a source of dignity and pride,” he added.
“My presence at the airport to welcome the president of Iran is a tribute to this remarkable resilience. Pakistan is not just a neighbor but a brother to the Islamic Republic of Iran, and we are committed to developing and strengthening our relations in all areas,” Nawaz Sharif stated.
