Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, praised Pakistan for its firm and consistent stance on the Palestinian issue and called for deeper cooperation between the two countries.
He made these remarks on Monday in Tehran during a meeting with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and his delegation. Speaking on Pakistan’s role in the Muslim world, Khamenei stressed the need for joint action to stop the Zionist regime’s actions in Gaza.
In a statement shared on social media after the meeting, the Supreme Leader said, “Pakistan’s position on Palestine is admirable.” He acknowledged Pakistan’s strength in resisting repeated offers made to Muslim countries to normalise relations with Israel.
Despite these pressures, he said, Pakistan remained committed to its principles.
Khamenei shared his optimism about the future of the Muslim world, saying that recent global events had renewed this hope. He also welcomed the recent easing of tensions between Pakistan and India, expressing hope that both sides could find peaceful solutions to their issues.
He pointed out that while some global powers continue to spread war and division, unity among Muslim nations is vital. According to him, this unity is necessary for achieving peace and security in the region.
The Iran’s Supreme Leader also encouraged greater cooperation between Iran and Pakistan through the Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO). He called for efforts to revive and strengthen the organisation.
He reminded the delegation that Iran and Pakistan have long shared warm and brotherly ties. Even during difficult periods like the Iran-Iraq war, he noted, Pakistan stood by Iran and offered support.
Khamenei’s remarks reflected both appreciation and a call for action, reinforcing the idea that solidarity between Iran and Pakistan could play a major role in shaping the future of the region.
