At the SCO summit in Tianjin, China, Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar reaffirmed Pakistan’s commitment to maintaining the ceasefire and regional stability with India. However, he warned that peace cannot prevail if aggression and force become state policies. Tensions between India and Pakistan escalated after the April 22 Kashmir attack, later diffused through US-brokered mediation. Dar emphasized resolving disputes through dialogue and diplomacy, calling for SCO to act as a platform for regional stability. He also addressed anti-terror collaboration and the situation in Afghanistan.
