PESHAWAR:
Speaker of the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Assembly, Babar Saleem Swati, has strongly condemned the United States’ unprovoked attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, terming it a blatant and serious violation of Iran’s sovereignty, territorial integrity, the United Nations Charter, and international law.
He stated that the strike comes at a time when Iran is already facing aggression from Israel, adding that such actions will not only escalate tensions in the region but also pose a grave threat to global peace. Swati expressed full solidarity and sympathy with the people and government of Iran, urging the international community to take immediate notice of the aggression and play its role in ensuring peace and stability in the Middle East.
He further emphasized that international institutions like the United Nations must not remain silent spectators, and that upholding international law should be their foremost priority.
Meanwhile, Adviser to the Chief Minister on Information and Public Relations, Barrister Dr Saif, has strongly criticized Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s reported proposal to nominate former US President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, calling it the “height of sycophantic politics.”
Barrister Saif said it was incomprehensible to suggest such an honor for a man “responsible for raining bombs on Muslims.” He pointed out that President Trump not only directly attacked Iran during his tenure but also rejected ceasefire resolutions on Gaza eight times.
“Instead of mediating peace between Iran and Israel, innocent civilians are being directly targeted — and Shehbaz Sharif remains silent, yet talks of nominating Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize. This is not only shameful, it is condemnable,” he stated.
He further said, “There is a limit to flattery, and Shehbaz Sharif’s recent remarks are not just disgraceful but reflect the ultimate level of servitude. Nominating Trump is tantamount to insulting the entire Muslim Ummah.”
