Islamabad, March 01, 2022 (PPI-OT):Pakistan has called for equitable and balanced approach towards issues of arms control and disarmament, based on the principle of equal security for all states. Addressing the High-Level Segment of the Conference on Disarmament held in Geneva in virtual format, Foreign Secretary Sohail Mahmood said adherence to international norms without any discrimination, remains fundamental for sustainable global peace and security.
He drew attention to the erosion of long-standing arms control agreements, accentuated by policies of exceptionalism in violation of established global norms. The Foreign Secretary highlighted the serious strains to strategic stability in South Asia, which is being accentuated by discriminatory application of rules and supply of advanced military technologies, weapons and delivery systems to India.
