KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia and Pakistan expressed cautious support for U.S. President Donald Trump’s 20-point plan for Gaza during their meeting on Monday (October 6).
“We (Malaysia and Pakistan) jointly, of course, look favourably at the 20-point peace initiative by President Donald Trump, although Malaysia does express some concerns,” Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar said during a joint statement with his Pakistani counterpart Shehbaz Sharif, who is on a three-day working visit to Malaysia. Sharif, the previous week, had welcomed Trump’s plan.
“At least on the point of cessation of hostilities, to stop the insane bombings and killings by the Zionist Israeli regime on Gaza," Anwar said, "that is a clear position taken by Arab countries, Muslim countries, and most of the world now".
Sharif’s visit, which runs from October 5 to 7, includes bilateral meetings aimed at strengthening trade, investment, and defence cooperation between Malaysia and Pakistan.
