Pakistan has openly opposed Hamas regarding Gaza. Pakistan has also voted for this in the United Nations Security Council meeting. Pakistan is a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council. Pakistan is also currently presiding over the United Nations Security Council. This decision of Pakistan has created a stir in the internal politics of the country and the international diplomatic world.

Questions are being raised that why has Pakistan, which talks about making Palestine a separate country, finally voted against Hamas? Let us understand in detail the questions and answers related to Pakistan, Hamas and the recent decision in this story…

1. How did Pakistan oppose Hamas?

America has sent a proposal to the United Nations. In this proposal, control of Gaza after the ceasefire has been mentioned. According to the proposal, a committee will be formed under the leadership of the US President. This committee will control Gaza until the upcoming elections are held there.

It has been said that Egypt and Qatar will be given a bigger role in the committee. Both countries will train troops in Gaza. Both of them have the responsibility of disarming Hamas. However, Hamas has refused to lay down its arms. Hamas has opposed this proposal.

Hamas says that America wants to control Gaza through the backdoor. We will not let this happen. Pakistan has supported this proposal of America. Voted in its favor in UNSC.

2. Why did Pakistan oppose Hamas?

America has presented a resolution against Hamas. Countries like Saudi, Qatar and Egypt are also in support of this proposal. In such a situation, Pakistan was not in a position to oppose it openly. If Pakistan had protested, it would have had to face the anger of Donald Trump. This is the reason why Pakistan has supported this proposal.

According to Asim Iftikhar Ahmed, Pakistan’s permanent representative in the United Nations Security Council, this decision has been taken to stop the bloodshed in Gaza and to save the children. Pakistan says that if this resolution was not passed, war could have started again in Gaza.

3. What will happen next in Gaza after the proposal?

After the approval of the proposal in the United Nations Security Council, the peace proposal will now be implemented. Egypt and Qatar’s work is on the ground. The first effort of both the countries will be to convince Hamas. This proposal can be implemented after Hamas accepts it. After the implementation of the proposal, first of all basic facilities will be provided in Gaza.

After this, peace will be established in Gaza. After peace is established, general elections can be held in Gaza. After the elections, the chair will be handed over to the leader who wins.
