ISLAMABAD(National times)- Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar has said that the 20 points announced by US President Donald Trump under his plan to end the war in Gaza are not the same as those prepared by Muslim-majority countries. He clarified that the draft finalised by Washington had undergone changes and that Pakistan, along with seven other Muslim nations, does not accept the modified version. Dar told the National Assembly that Pakistan continues to follow the policy of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah regarding Palestine, and there is no room for politics on this issue. He said that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif represented Pakistan robustly at the United Nations General Assembly, where he raised the issues of Kashmir, Palestine, climate change and global conflicts, explicitly condemning Israel by name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump\u2019s 20-point plan<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump on Monday published a 20-point framework to halt the war between Israel and Hamas. Under the proposal, all hostages, both living and dead, would be returned within 72 hours of a ceasefire. The blueprint also refers to the creation of a \u201cNew Gaza\u201d after Israeli withdrawal and reconstruction.The plan envisages a staged pullback of Israeli forces rather than a full withdrawal, leaving space for negotiations and requiring Hamas to disarm within days of acceptance. Trump also proposed forming a \u201cBoard of Peace\u201d with international figures, including former British prime minister Tony Blair, and a temporary technocratic administration for Gaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Israeli figures, Hamas killed more than 1,200 people and abducted 251 hostages in the October 7, 2023 attack. Gaza health authorities report over 66,000 Palestinians killed and more than 150,000 injured since Israel launched its retaliatory offensive. Dar said the enclave has turned into \u201ca graveyard of humanity as well as a graveyard of the global conscience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Muslim nations\u2019 proposal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On September 22, leaders from eight Muslim countries \u2013 Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Indonesia and Pakistan \u2013 met Trump to propose their version of a peace plan. Dar revealed that their draft demanded a \u201cfull Israeli withdrawal from Gaza,\u201d the prevention of Israeli annexation of the occupied West Bank, and a roadmap towards a two-state solution. The group also called for immediate ceasefire, protection of civilians, and a structured programme for reconstruction and humanitarian relief.
Pakistan\u2019s stance Dar stressed that the altered draft put forward by Trump does not reflect these positions and will not be endorsed by Pakistan or its allies.\u00a0\u201cThis is not the draft we prepared,\u201d he clarified, adding that eight Muslim countries will remain focused on their original draft. He underlined that Gaza\u2019s reconstruction is the collective responsibility of Islamic nations and that Pakistan\u2019s approach remains consistent with its founding principles. He added that Senator Mushtaq Ahmad was among those detained after Israel seized 22 humanitarian flotillas attempting to reach Gaza. Pakistan, he said, was working with an influential European country to secure the release of Ahmad and other detained Pakistanis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pakistan yet to decide on sending troops to Gaza peace force<\/strong><\/u><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking about Saudi Arabia, Dar said Pakistan values its ties deeply, recalling that talks on a bilateral agreement had begun during the Pakistan Democratic Movement government and were accelerated under the current administration. He described it as a highly important agreement, not signed blindly. After Pakistan\u2019s deal, other countries also expressed interest. During the UNGA session, several states approached us. \u201cIf more countries join, this could become like NATO. I believe Pakistan will lead the Muslim Ummah; after being a nuclear power, we must also become an economic power.\u201dDar concluded by affirming that while Pakistan remains a nuclear power, its next objective is to emerge as an economic force within the Muslim world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
