UN Secretary-General António Guterres, Tuesday, said he was moved by the show of religious unity he witnessed in Pakistan after paying visits to a mosque, a Sikh temple and Kartarpur Corridor, the visa-free crossing which allows Sikhs to travel between nearby holy sites on each side of the India-Pakistan border.
Secretary-General during a three-day visit to Pakistan pressed for climate action and praised Pakistan’s compassion for hosting Afghan refugees, as well as the country’s major contributions to UN peacekeeping. He left Pakistan on Wednesday after completing a successful visit to the country.
Lauding Pakistan's rich culture, the UN chief thanked the people of Pakistan in a tweet.
"I concluded my visit to Pakistan after enjoying the rich history and vibrant culture of Lahore — from the Lahore Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to the majestic Badshahi mosque," the UN chief tweeted.
