Encirclement and Legal Challenges
International mediator Muhammed Faisal, closely monitoring the current Middle East situation, stated that former US President Donald Trump is not the only leader with anti-war ideology; former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan shares similar views. Both leaders find themselves entangled in legal troubles, which Faisal attributes to the global warlike establishment. This encirclement, he warns, endangers the peace of the entire world. Faisal expressed that the Biden administration’s decisions, following Trump’s departure, have exacerbated conflicts, notably the Russia-Ukraine war, now threatening Europe’s borders. He also highlighted the impact on Muslim countries, where Imran Khan’s government was overthrown by Pakistan’s powerful military.
Regional Instability and OIC’s Role
Faisal criticized the Biden administration for bypassing the Doha peace plan, leading to increased uncertainty between Pakistan and Afghanistan, further destabilizing the region, including Iran. He pointed out that both Imran Khan and Trump had opposed such destabilizing moves. Addressing the Middle East, Faisal stated that the responsibility does not lie solely with the US and Israel; Muslim countries also share the blame. The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has failed to take any decisive diplomatic or economic action against Israel, contributing to the ongoing strife.
International Reactions and Concerns
The international community is on high alert as tensions escalate. Faisal described the atmosphere as being overshadowed by the clouds of a serious war. He urged the Arab and Muslim world to leverage the OIC to intervene and help maintain peace. Without such efforts, the situation could spiral into a broader, possibly global conflict. The world watches closely, hoping for a diplomatic resolution to avert a larger crisis. The urgent call for peace underscores the critical need for cohesive and strategic actions to mitigate the looming threats.
