Pakistan has expressed its deep concern at the escalation in tensions in the region, saying a renewed conflict is in no one’s interest.

A statement issued by the Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Tahir Andrabi, in Islamabad said that Pakistan calls upon all parties to exercise restraint and refrain from any actions that may further undermine regional peace and stability.

He said there is no alternative to continued engagement, dialogue, and diplomacy to achieve the shared goal of peace in the region.

Pakistan has urged all sides to uphold their respective commitments under the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which remains an enduring foundation for understanding, mutual respect, and shared prosperity for the region and beyond.

Tahir Andrabi said Pakistan remains ready to continue playing its role in this regard.
