Restoring global peace and addressing new global concerns have prompted Pakistan to demand more efficient United Nations peacekeeping.

During the security council’s open discussion on UN peacekeeping operations, Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Munir Akram, made the request.

According to him, a number of intricate and novel difficulties that stem from various sources have raised the profile of UN Peacekeeping.

The African Union is among the organizations ready to take on more forceful operations to ensure peace, and Ambassador Munir Akram has called on the international community, particularly the United Nations and the Security Council, to offer their full support to them.

Along with this, he reiterated Pakistan’s commitment to bolstering and improving UN peacekeeping efforts, especially in areas like South Sudan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Central African Republic.

As part of a larger endeavor to tackle the changing difficulties of peacekeeping and peacebuilding, he said.

Increased focus on supporting community-based peace efforts at the grassroots level is necessary to curb violence, according to Ambassador Munir Akram.

Localized peace agreements can have a major good impact, as demonstrated by the efficacious endeavors of Pakistani Peacekeepers in Abyei, he claimed.

Pakistan is dedicated to tackling the present peacekeeping issues, he said, and has a long history of participating in UN peacekeeping missions.

During its two-year term on the UN Security Council and Peace Building Commission, Pakistan will also actively participate, according to Ambassador Munir Akram, at the next ministerial preparatory meeting in Islamabad.
