Islamabad, November 3, 2026: Speakers at a seminar on “impact and significance of Tehran Muslim Unity Conference” agreed that Iran War has provided an opportunity for regional countries to reshape the region, without foreign interference.
The International Parliamentarians Congress (IPC) had organized a seminar on the landmark Tehran Muslim Unity Conference in which there was a lively and candid discussion on the impact and consequences of the October 21 meeting in Tehran with the Makkah Defence Alliance on the initiative of Pakistan.
Mushahid Hussain Sayed said that “we are living in an era of transformation, turbulence and transition” and he said that the “division and decline of the West together with the rise of China and the emergence of Muslim Middle Powers were new global realities”. Among Muslim Middle Powers, he listed Pakistan, Turkey, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Indonesia and said these countries had a broad consensus that the main threat to the Muslim world came from Israel and hence there was a need for strong Muslim unity.
He said that Pakistan had done three major achievements in the last few months starting with the April 7 ceasefire between Iran and the United States, the 17 June Islamabad MOU and the 21 October historic meeting in Tehran between the four Muslim countries.
He said that the Islamabad MOU already agreed upon by Iran and the United States with Pakistan also as a signatory was still the only viable framework for durable peace, security and stability in the region.
He reiterated Pakistan’s principledposition of condemning the US and Israel’s unprovoked and unwarranted aggression against Iran, which had destabilized the region and caused a major global energy and economic crisis. He said the “time has come for regional hands to reshape the region’s future, without foreign interference”.
The Ambassador of Iran, Dr. Raza Amiri Mughaddam, in his speech talked about the historic development of the Iranian Revolution under the Imam Khomenie which transformed Iran from what it was once called ‘second Israel’ under the the Shah to a bastion of resistance against Zionism. He referred to the leadership and contributions of Imam Khomeni of Iran in mobilizing millions of Iranians in support of the Islamic Revolution.
The Ambassador of Iran also welcomed Makkah Defence Alliance as a positive step and he praised Field Marshal Asim Minir fir his good initiative to bring Islamic countries together in Tehran on 26 October and he said that all our leadership welcomes it because if we four countries (Pakistan, Iran, Turkey and Saudi Arabia) have unity and we come together, nobody can harm us.
