For the second time in a week, United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres spoke to Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Monday and warned him against any military aggression amid ongoing tensions with India.
Following the Pahalgam attack, which India has blamed on Pakistan, the tensions between the two countries is at its highest in years. Pakistan has taken several escalatory steps, such as conducting frequent missile tests and moving troops to the border.
In the call with Shehbaz, Guterres further said that the platform of the UN was open to India and Pakistan for mediation in the conflict.
On his part, Shehbaz appreciated Guterres’ engagement with both the countries and welcomed his call for de-escalation, according to Pakistani state media.
Pakistan sticks to lies
Even though Guterres asked Pakistan to get off the escalatory, the country stuck to its lies.
