President Dr. Arif Alvi on Saturday said that the world was going through a complex situation and it was desperately waiting for a morality-based world order, dominated by human compassion and equality among humans.

During his interaction with the speakers and participants of Islamabad Security Dialogue under the theme of ‘Comprehensive security and reimagining the international cooperation,’ President Dr. Arif Alvi regretted that human history was replete with wars, destruction and deaths.

He said it was a matter of concern whether the nations had learnt from the history or not. What should be the criterion for the security of states with respect to avoidance of tussles? he posed a question.

Human nature was based upon compassion and repulsion with certain elements of phobia and motivated with a survival instinct which often led to stress and tussle among countries, he added.

The president referring to some major human destruction in the world history said, the Mongols onslaught, the 100-year war between England and France, WW1 and WWII led to huge human toll. The world nations, he said, then looked for certain principles to avoid future wars, adding that among the powerful nations, the geopolitical dialogue would be important.

President Dr. Arif Alvi said to ensure global peace, efforts were made to encourage globalization through economic and goods flow among the world countries. It was expected that when flow of goods and economy were linked, it could ensure peace, but it could not be achieved as the flow was not equal out of hypocrisy.

The president said Pakistan had hosted millions of Afghan refugees on its soil for forty years, but on the other hand, refugees were being drowned in the Mediterranean Sea. He observed that the voices of smaller countries could be heard if they were economically strengthened. The president further said that an enlightened utopia was not perceivable, still there was a need to trust-building measures.

Denouncing the recent Indian firing of missile towards Pakistan as the highest act of irresponsibility, he said Modi’s psyche through the instigation of Hindu nationalism was hell-bent upon changing the Indian society.

He further observed that world efforts over reduction of poverty, focus on health and education were paying dividends, besides an increase in per capita income.
