UN Secretary-General in Pakistan
UN Secretary-General António Guterres has arrived in Pakistan on a two-day visit to express solidarity with the Government and people of Pakistan braving a colossal climate-induced natural disaster caused by unprecedented rains and floods across the country, according to the foreign office.
Guterres was received by State Minister for Foreign Affairs Hina Rabbani Khar. He will be visiting the flood-hit areas of the country.
The UN secretary general took to Twitter soon after he landed in Pakistan and appealed to the international community to offer ’massive support“ for Pakistan.
I have arrived in Pakistan to express my deep solidarity with the Pakistani people after the devastating floods here.
