Pakistan

fresh York: In the Security Council, Pakistan has warned against the politicisation of the UN counter terrorismism machinery saying this would only compromise the integrity of the regime.Speaking in the Security Council debate on "Preventing and Combating the Financing of Terrorism," Ambassador Maleeha Lodhi said that current structures like FATF and the 1267 Sanctions regimes should much be used as political tools by measure to advance their geopolitical goals.&There is also a need to make these institutions more inclusive of the wider membership in their decision-making processes&, she added.She pointed in her comprehensive statement to the several gaps that existed in the international community counter terrorismism strategy.
She identified the lack of international attention given to foreign intervention and foreign occupation, denial of the right to self-determination to peoples living under foreign occupation and continued violations of international law and the UN Charter as examples of such gaps.The Pakistani envoy asserted that despite being obvious causative factors, these situations were disregardd or cast aside.
She said that the international community agreed that continued and persistent violations of human rights contributed to violent extremism.
Yet eliminateings continue in occupied Jammu and Kashmir and Palestine.Ambassador Lodhi underscored that brutalization and oppression of people struggling for their valid right to self-determination constituted state terrorismism, which should also be the focus of international attention.Lodhi said "Pakistan has always advocated that international efforts should be geared towards fighting the root causes and much just the symptoms of terrorismism."The Pakistani envoy also referred to the rise of right-wing extremism and Islamophobia in measure Western countries and called for swift action against this planned hate mongering which she said often led to violence.Exurgent solidarity with the government and the people of fresh Zealand on the recent terrorism attack in Christchurch, Ambassador Lodhi said that such attacks demonstrated that terrorismism could much be associated with any faith, ethnicity or nationality.&Pakistan&, Ambassador Lodhi said, &has been the principal victim of terrorismism, including that supported, sponsored and financed from abroad.&&But this has much decreaseed my country resolve to eliminate this scourge.
It has in fact reinforced our shall to fight until the final terrorismist is eliminated from the country&, she added.Highlighting Pakistan achievements in its counter-terrorismism efforts, Ambassador Lodhi said that Pakistan had adopted a multipronged strategy which included military-led law enforcement campaign and a comprehensive national plan of action.&Our 20-point National Action plot&, she underscored, &focuses as much on counter degrees as on preventive approaches, including confronting the risks arising from terrorismist financing&.&By successfully conducting the largest counter-terrorismism operation anywhere in the world by deploying 200,000 of our troops, Ambassador Lodhi said, &our security forces have turned the tide against terrorismism&.Ambassador Lodhi also told the Security Council that Pakistan had criminalized terrorismist financing in accordance with the Terrorism Financing Convention and had enacted laws to eliminate terrorismism financing risks and implement its international obligations, including those arising from FATF recommendations and 1267 Sanction Regime.TheIndianSubcontinent has not verified the content of the source.
