BRUSSELS:

Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister (DPM/FM) Senator Ishaq Dar on Friday called for strengthened multilateralism, inclusive cooperation and renewed global dialogue.

Addressing the Indo-Pacific Ministerial Forum Roundtable, Dar warned that the world stood "at a pivotal moment", facing rising conflicts, great-power rivalries, economic disruptions, and rapid technological transformation driven by artificial intelligence.

He described the decision to place the Indus Waters Treaty in abeyance as "illegal and unilateral," warning it posed a serious threat to regional stability and demanding its immediate reversal.
