PM Gilani seeks world’s support for fighting terrorism

Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani on Friday sought pro-active support of the world community to fight terrorism, since it is a common enemy of all the peace-loving countries.

Addressing the plenary session of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) here, Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani forcefully stated the terrorism is a serious problem that was affecting the very fabric of Pakistan’s society.

He briefed the 45-member world body on Pakistan’s position on terrorism and said his country was tackling it most seriously by various means in order to ensure peace and security at all levels.

He hoped the ASEM countries, that represent diverse cultures and faiths, would contribute to inter-faith harmony and culture understanding as a means to counter terrorism and militancy needs no emphasis.
