🇪🇺 President of the European Council @eucopresident and President of the European Commission @vonderleyen meet 🇵🇰 Prime Minister @CMShehbaz at #UNGA. @MIshaqDar50 @GovtofPakistan

[António Costa @eucopresident]

Very good meeting with Prime Minister @CMShehbaz at #UNGA.

The EU values its partnership with Pakistan.

Our Strategic Engagement Plan reflects both the breadth of this partnership and the shared commitment to democracy, the rule of law, human rights and civic space.

We work together on stability and security. We thanked the Prime Minister for his initiative to mediate in the conflict between the US and Iran.

Pakistan is playing an important role in support of de-escalation, dialogue and peaceful resolution of conflicts.

We discussed how to take our partnership forward, from trade to addressing illegal migration.

Food must never be used as a weapon of war.

[Kaja Kallas @kajakallas]

Grain from Ukraine feeds people all over the world.

But Russia is blocking exports through the Black Sea and is deliberately causing global food insecurity.

The EU is calling for attacks to stop and grain to flow again.

Food must never be used as a weapon of war.
