Analyst Calls for Boosting Pakistan-Italy Cooperation in Diverse Sectors

In order to strengthen the relationship between Pakistan and Italy, an analyst suggests focusing on cooperation in various sectors. Italy, as a founding member of the European Union and an important country in Western Europe, has provided crucial machinery to Pakistan’s industrial sector.

Both Pakistan and Italy share common views on many international and regional issues. Italy has a unique stance on the Gaza issue and has also refrained from sending forces to the Yemen conflict. This shared perspective creates an opportunity for increased trade between the two countries. Pakistan has the potential to export textiles, rice, surgical instruments, sports goods, and other products to Italy.

Brigadier (Retd) Ahmed Saeed Minhas, a defense analyst, believes that the United States can play a significant role in resolving the conflict in Gaza. However, he points out that the saying “Might is Right” seems to hold true in this situation. Countries with greater economic and military strength are more influential on the global stage. Despite international resolutions condemning Israel’s actions in Gaza, the United States, driven by its national interests, continues to support Israel. The international community and world organizations have failed to effectively address the human rights violations in Palestine. Pakistan, with its strong military, has always expressed solidarity with the oppressed Palestinians.

The sacred event of Hajj holds immense importance in Islam and is one of its five pillars. Hajj is obligatory for financially and physically capable Muslims, as mentioned in the Holy Quran. It is performed during specified months, and every Muslim is expected to undertake the pilgrimage at least once in their lifetime. Hajj serves as a unifying event that brings together Muslims from around the world, promoting brotherhood, unity, and equality. It is believed that performing Hajj with a pure heart can absolve one of their sins. The method of performing Hajj has evolved over time, from traveling on foot to using horses and camels. This spiritual journey not only encompasses rituals but also connects pilgrims to the past and future.

To facilitate the influx of pilgrims from different parts of the world, the Saudi government has made special arrangements. The pilgrimage to Mecca is a significant event for Muslims, and the Saudi government ensures that pilgrims have a smooth and comfortable experience.
