We are taking our responsibility but Pakistan alone cannot take this responsibility. The world must intervene immediately, Qureshi said.
He said that the meeting of the OIC foreign ministers council is being held in Islamabad on December 19. The only agenda of this meeting will be the situation in Afghanistan. I want to convince the world that if Afghanistan’s situation is not taken seriously, the emerging humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan can become a serious situation, the foreign minister said.
