Pakistan’s proposal at the United Nations to tackle Islamophobia has been accepted, showing global support to address the issue. The resolution, led by Pakistan, gained backing from many countries, emphasizing the need to stop discrimination and violence against Muslims. It asks the UN leader to appoint a special person to fight Islamophobia, recognizing it as a danger to world peace. The goal is to deal with the causes and effects of this problem to promote respect and peace.
The resolution to end Islamophobia got strong approval, with 113 countries voting for it, and none against, indicating widespread agreement on its importance. However, 44 countries, like India, didn’t join the vote, raising doubts about their commitment to fighting Islamophobia and promoting religious harmony.
On the International Day to Combat Islamophobia, UN leader António Guterres urged for peace during Ramadan. He criticized divisive talk harming communities and called for unity against intolerance. Guterres also condemned hate speech on social media and urged an end to religious-based harassment. He emphasized the need to fight bigotry, especially after a recent terrorist attack in New Zealand targeting Muslims.
