In this enlightening presentation the prime minister will underscore the need for: · An assessment of the current events of the regions and what core issues must be addressed · A renewed commitment to regional peace, security and economic prosperity · How Pakistan must serve as a key player as a major Muslim country, which can be a stabilizing influence for the entire Muslim world and the world at large. · Root Causes of Terrorism and Possible Solutions · Bridging the Gaps Between Faiths and the Need for Promoting Interfaith Harmony
