Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is set to raise long-standing issues on United Nations Security Council's agenda which includes Jammu and Kashmir along with the war-torn Palestine. The PM will also address the rising tide of Islamophobia across nations, the country's foreign ministry said in a statement.
"Will present Pakistan's perspective to the world, advocate our interests & strengthen international partnerships," Shehbaz said on X, who will address the 79th United Nations General Assembly on September 27 in New York.


Last year, Pakistan had raked up the J&K issue at UNGA saying that Kashmir was the "key to peace" between India and Pakistan.
"Pakistan desires peaceful and productive relations with all our neighbours including India," interim PM Anwaarul Haq Kakar had said adding that "Kashmir is the key to peace between Pakistan and India."
India had condemned the statement saying: "In order for there to be peace in South Asia, the actions that Pakistan needs to take are threefold first stop cross-border terrorism and shut down its infrastructure of terrorism immediately. Second, vacate Indian territories under its illegal and forcible occupation. And third stop the grave and persistent human rights violations against the minorities in Pakistan."
