Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Senator Mohammad Ishaq Dar, held separate phone calls with the foreign ministers of Denmark and Panama to discuss rising regional tensions and reaffirm Islamabad’s position on India’s recent actions, including the suspension of the Indus Waters
Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Senator Mohammad Ishaq Dar, engaged in separate telephone conversations on Friday with Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen and Panama’s Foreign Minister Javier Eduardo Martinze-Acha Vasquez, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported.
During his call with the Danish foreign minister, Senator Dar provided an overview of the evolving regional situation, focusing on Pakistan’s firm rejection of what he described as India’s unfounded allegations and provocative unilateral actions. He also outlined the decisions of Pakistan’s National Security Committee, including Islamabad’s strong condemnation of India’s move to suspend the Indus Waters Treaty—a step he deemed a blatant violation of both treaty obligations and international law.
Senator Dar reaffirmed Pakistan’s commitment to protecting its sovereignty and advancing regional peace and security. In response, Foreign Minister Rasmussen voiced concern over escalating tensions and stressed the importance of restraint. Both ministers agreed to maintain close coordination, particularly within the UN Security Council, where Pakistan and Denmark are currently serving as non-permanent members. They also discussed deepening cooperation in trade, investment, and diplomatic engagement.
In his conversation with Panama’s Foreign Minister Vasquez, Senator Dar once again denounced India’s inflammatory rhetoric and the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, reiterating that such actions contravene international legal norms.
Foreign Minister Vasquez underscored the need for de-escalation and reaffirmed Panama’s dedication to global peace and stability. The two ministers agreed to continue working collaboratively in the UN Security Council and expressed mutual interest in enhancing bilateral relations.
