Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif addressed the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly, according to the Associated Press of Pakistan (APP), the country's state-run news agency, which documented the appearance.
The General Assembly's high-level session brings together heads of state and government from around the world each year at UN headquarters in New York, where leaders use the platform to set out national positions on international affairs, security and development. Pakistani prime ministers have regularly used the annual address to raise issues including regional security and the situation in Kashmir.
APP's report did not include further detail on the specific contents of the prime minister's remarks in this instance. Pakistani officials have in past sessions used the UNGA platform to call for renewed international engagement on unresolved disputes in South Asia and the wider region.
The 81st session continues over the coming days, with additional national statements and side events scheduled at UN headquarters.
