Pakistan renews refusal to recognize Israeli occupation entity

Islamabad, SANA-Pakistan reiterated its refusal to recognize the Israeli occupation entity.

“There are cultural and historical reasons, as well as reasons related to the Pakistani people, and we are proud that we decided a long time ago not to recognize apartheid states,” Sputnik quoted Pakistani Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari as saying during a press conference at the UN headquarters in New York on Saturday.

Bhutto added that “We used to write on the Pakistani passport that it valid for all countries except South Africa and Israel … Today, we write that it is valid for all countries except Israel and this is the stance of Pakistan.”
