Sadiq said instability, sectarian divisions and immense human under-development in the Muslim world had retarded genuine development and fruitful integration of the Muslim world.

Al-Malkiy endorsed Sadiq’s proposal for collaboration to confront shared challenges and stressed the need for deeper engagement between the two countries. “National interests of Pakistan are obviously national interests of Saudi Arabia,” the ambassador maintained.
He assured the Speaker that Saudi Arabia was Pakistan’s partner in uplifting regional development, adding that Riyadh considered Islamabad its partner in addressing regional and global challenges.
