Resolutions: Pakistan to work with SC

Published February 6, 2003

UNITED NATIONS, Feb 5: Pakistan Foreign Minister Khurshid Mahmood Kasuri on Wednesday said that Pakistan would work within and outside the Security Council to ensure full implementation of all UN Security Council resolutions.

Alluding to the Kashmir issue without saying so, Kasuri told the Council, following US Secretary of State Colin Powell’s address, that “at this critical moment Pakistan wishes to reaffirm its determination to act within and outside the Council on the basis of the precepts of United Nations Charter for pacific resolution of disputes.”

Mr Kasuri pleaded with Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein “to avert a disaster and a tragedy for Iraqi people” he should “do his utmost, and put the Iraqi people first.”
