Mr. Samson Salamat read the following appeal for worldwide peace at this occasion:
We, Rwadari Tehreek Pakistan, stand in solidarity with the victims of war and conflict around the world, especially in the Middle East where we are witnessing heavy war.
We urge world leaders to prioritize compassion and humanity in these devastating times. The ongoing conflicts in various regions are causing immense suffering, loss of life, and environmental damage, leaving deep scars on individuals, families, and communities.
We appeal to leaders to choose dialogue, peace, and justice over destruction and violence. It's time to silence the guns and lift the voices of the oppressed. Let's protect human life, safeguard our planet, and build a world where diversity and coexistence thrive.
We believe that peace is not a weakness, but a responsibility of leadership. We also believe that war is not a solution but a problem itself. Therefore, we call on global leaders especially to UN Secretary General Mr. António Guterres, Holy Father Pope LEO XIV, and other influential voices to play their role in ending wars.
We also call upon the global leaders to rise above politics and interests, and work towards a future where humanity, dignity, and respect prevail. Our hearts are with those affected by conflict, and we stand committed to promoting peace, justice, and human rights for all “.
