ISLAMABAD: Dr. Muhammad Tahir Tabassum, President of the Think Tank Institute of Peace and Development (INSPAD) and Secretary General of the International Harmony Council, has said that the extraordinary conference of OIC Foreign Ministers in Islamabad was a commendable initiative.
However, besides Afghanistan, it should have included conflicts facing Kashmir, Palestine, Syria and other issues facing the Muslim world, he added.
Efforts are needed to understand and resolve disputes between Turkey, Iran, Yemen, and other Muslim countries, and progress must be made towards inter-Muslim unity, he said.
Effective measures must be taken against the atrocities, massacres and serious human rights violations committed by Israel and India in Palestine and Kashmir.
