PM Imran Khan said that international agreements are being pushed back, a new arms race has started between the aspiring countries to become superpowers, conflicts are escalating, people's right to self-determination through military intervention and illegal integration.  Intention is being suppressed.


 He quoted Noam Chomsky as saying that humanity was in greater danger at the moment than in World War I and World War II because of the growing threat of nuclear conflict, climate change and so on.  Dictatorships are coming to power.


 "We must all work together to address these threats, and mutual cooperation must be paramount in international relations, which is in line with international law," he said.


 Talking about Corona virus, PM Imran Khan said that Corona virus has sent a message to the world to be united, we get the message that no one is safe in the world unless everyone is safe.


 He said that Corona has severely affected the poor and needy people all over the world, Pakistan has adopted the policy of smart lockdown, we have not carried out severe lockdown in Pakistan.


 He said that we want to solve the problems through multi-faceted partnership. Ever since our government came, we have worked for the betterment of the people.


 Prime Minister Imran Khan said that کور 8 billion was provided to health facilities and poor people during the Corona epidemic. We have planned to plant 10 million trees in 3 years. The aim of all government policies is to increase the living standards of citizens.

 He said that it was these differences that ignited anti-Islamic sentiments and Muslims in different countries were brutally targeted, shrines were demolished, our Prophet was insulted, the Holy Quran was desecrated and all this.  In the name of freedom of expression, the blasphemous sketches republished in Charlie Hebdo are an example.


 The Prime Minister called on the General Assembly to declare a World Day to End Islamophobia.


Talking about the atrocities against Muslims in India, Prime Minister Imran Khan said that it is unfortunate to say that there is a country in the world where state-sponsored anti-Islamic activities are going on and that country is India.


 He said that the reason for this is the ideology of RSS which is unfortunately in power in India at present, the ideology of RSS is that India is only for Hindus and people of other religions are inferior.


 The Prime Minister said that the RSS had martyred the Babri Masjid in 1992, the massacre of Muslims in Gujarat in 2002 and all this was done under the supervision of the then Chief Minister of Gujarat Narendra Modi.


 He said that since then, in 2007, more than 50 Muslims had been burnt alive in the Samjhauta Express by RSS militants.  In addition, a conspiracy is being hatched to unilaterally deprive millions of Muslims in Assam of their citizenship.


 The Prime Minister said that the issue did not end there. Muslims were also held responsible for the spread of Corona virus and Muslims affected by Corona were denied medical aid on several occasions.


 He said that Hindu extremists openly kill Muslims in the name of village rickshaws all over India. Attempts are being made to wall off about 300 million Muslims, Christians and Sikhs in India. This is unprecedented.  This will not be good for India itself.

 He said that after that India arrested the Hurriyat leaders, shut down the communication system, suspended internet and mobile service and carried out a complete blackout.  In addition, Indian forces use brutal force against Kashmiris, using pellet guns, which have blinded hundreds of Kashmiris.  Indian forces also martyred hundreds of Kashmiris under the guise of fake encounters and search operations and bodies are not given to their families for burial.


 Imran Khan demanded that the international community should take notice of the Indian atrocities in Kashmir and take action against the Indian civil and military leadership for crimes against humanity.

The Prime Minister said that the BJP government, influenced by the RSS and Hindutva ideology, was trying to change the proportion of the population in Occupied Kashmir with the help of the army so that if ever a referendum was held in the future, the results would be to their liking.  ۔  India's move is against the UN Charter and the Geneva Conventions, which make it a war crime to change the proportion of the population in the occupied territories.


 Imran Khan said that brave Kashmiris will never bow before Indian occupation and oppression, their struggle is local, they are fighting for their rights, and are sacrificing their lives from generation to generation so that Indian occupation  Get freedom


 He said that the government and people of Pakistan stand with the Kashmiris in their struggle for the legitimate goal of achieving the right to self-determination.

Prime Minister Imran Khan said that India was playing a dangerous game of military confrontation with Pakistan to cover up its actions in occupied Kashmir.  Despite India's numerous provocations and violations of the ceasefire agreement, Pakistan has been showing extreme restraint.  We are constantly drawing the attention of the international community to the fact that India is planning a fake flag operation and adventure against Pakistan.


 He warned India that if it attempted an adventure, it would have to face a nation determined to fight to the last for its independence.


 The Prime Minister clarified that lasting peace and stability in South Asia could not be achieved until the Kashmir issue was resolved. Kashmir has rightly become a nuclear flashpoint between Pakistan and India. The Security Council must stop this catastrophe from happening and on its resolutions.  Action must be taken and Kashmiris must be protected from the threat of genocide by India.


 He said that Pakistan has always been pushing for a peaceful solution to this problem and India would have to withdraw the steps taken on August 5, 2019, end the military siege and blackout in occupied Kashmir and meet the aspirations of Kashmiris.  Will have to decide the future of Kashmir. 


The Prime Minister said that Pakistan has always been a champion of peace in the region and that is why we have played our role for peace in Afghanistan.  I have been saying for two decades that there is no military solution to the Afghan problem, the only solution is political reconciliation.


 He said that Pakistan fully supports the implementation of the agreement reached between the Afghan Taliban and the United States, Pakistan is happy that it has fulfilled its responsibility in this regard, now Afghan leaders should take advantage of this opportunity for peace.  ۔


 He said a permanent political solution must be found in the inter-Afghan talks in Qatar and the early return of Afghan refugees should be part of that solution.


 Talking about the Palestinian issue, Prime Minister Imran Khan said that the Palestinian issue must be resolved for peace in the Middle East.


 He said that the illegal integration of the Palestinian territories, illegal settlements, unfavorable living conditions for Palestinians and especially those living in the Gaza Strip can never bring peace.


 The Prime Minister said that Pakistan has always been in favor of a two-state solution to the Palestinian problem based on UN and Security Council resolutions, with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as the capital of an independent Palestinian state.


Finally, he spoke on the reform of the United Nations, saying that the United Nations is an excellent platform for joint action in the pursuit of global conflict, peace and security.

 Imran Khan said that comprehensive reforms in the United Nations and especially in the Security Council are essential for better democracy, transparency, accountability and enhancing its effectiveness in the institution.


 He said that in order to achieve this goal, Pakistan would continue to play its role together with other countries to create a world where there would be no conflicts and peace, security and prosperity for all.


 It is to be noted that due to the Corona epidemic, this annual meeting of the UN General Assembly is being held virtually this time while the recorded speech of the leaders is being broadcast.
