The Foreign Office (FO) has expressed deep concern over attempts to “drag” Saudi Arabia into the Middle East conflict and restated Pakistan’s support for the security of the kingdom.
In a statement published on social media, the FO reiterated its “unwavering support for the security, sovereignty, territorial integrity and prosperity of the brotherly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia”.
It also condemned the continued threats issued by the Houthis against Saudi Arabia and commercial shipping in the Red Sea, particularly expressing concern over “reports of threats directed against vessels engaged in lawful commercial trade with the kingdom”.
