Experts have also drawn attention that the stand taken by Pakistan in the matter of attack on Ukraine is similar to that of India, China and UAE. But the ambassadors of these countries did not issue such a statement there.
The statement was issued by the foreign envoys just before the start of the discussion on the resolution brought in the UN General Assembly to condemn Russia. His statement said that the resolution introduced in the General Assembly supports Ukraine’s sovereignty, independence, unity and territorial integrity. In it, Russia has been asked to immediately withdraw its forces from Ukraine. The ambassadors said- ‘The international community must unite and protect the rules-based international order.’
Pakistan government on independent foreign policy
The statement was signed by the ambassadors of the countries of the European Union as well as Japan, Canada, Britain and Australia. Observers say that through this statement, the US-led western countries have bluntly warned Pakistan. This clearly means that Pakistan can also come under the target of Western countries if the policy of adopting a soft stance towards Russia continues. According to experts, the real reason behind Pakistan’s soft stance towards Russia is its proximity to China. China is supporting Russia in Ukraine dispute. In such a situation, it has become difficult for Pakistan to adopt a different stand.
While the Government of Pakistan says that it is following an independent foreign policy. It has said that it has adopted the same stance in the United Nations General Assembly as that of India, Armenia, Gabon, Cameroon, Kazakhstan, Mauritania, Namibia, Senegal, Somalia, Sudan, United Arab Emirates and Uzbekistan. All these countries withdrew from voting on the anti-Russian resolution. Several Latin American countries have taken a similar stance.
