Neutrality according to the decision of the Parliament: Pakistan reminds that the war in Yemen is not its war.
The leader of the opposition in the Pakistani Senate, Alma Raja Nasir Abbas Jaafari, opposed the country's involvement in military action in Yemen and called on the government to respect the parliament's decision not to participate in the conflict:
Under no circumstances should Pakistan be a party to the ongoing war in Yemen.
- said.
The politician recalled that in 2015 the Pakistani parliament unanimously decided on the country's non-participation in this conflict.
Rejecting the 2015 Parliament resolution could harm Pakistan's national interests.
- emphasized Jaafari.
He also condemned the attacks in Yemen:
We condemn the attacks in Yemen and emphasize that the Yemeni people are being punished for supporting the Palestinians and opposing Israeli aggression.
We call on the government to focus on achieving a ceasefire and negotiations instead of dragging the country into a war against a Muslim country.
