    Guiding principals of Pakistan Foreign Policy:


    The foreign policy of Pakistan is guided by the vision and principles set forth by the founding
    father of the country, Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, who said that:

    Our foreign policy is one of friendliness and goodwill towards all the
    nations of the world. We do not cherish aggressive designs against
    any country or nation. We believe in the principle of honesty and fair
    play in national and international dealings and are prepared to
    make our utmost contribution to the promotion of peace and
    prosperity among the nations of the world. Pakistan will never be
    found lacking in extending its material and moral support to the
    oppressed and suppressed peoples of the world, and in upholding the
    principles of the United Nations Charter. 1

    Article 40 of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan also outlines a number of
    principles that shall guide Pakistan’s foreign policy for all times to come. This article states that:

    The State shall endeavor to preserve and strengthen fraternal


    relations among Muslim countries based on Islamic unity,
    support the common interests of the people of Asia, Africa and
    Latin America, promote international peace and security, foster
    goodwill and friendly relations among all nations and encourage
    the settlement of international disputes by peaceful means.

    Thus, the Quaid’s vision and Article 40 of the Constitution outline the guiding principles of
    Pakistan’s foreign policy.

    1. The primary objective of Pakistan’s foreign policy is to safeguard the national security,
    territorial integrity and political sovereignty of the country.
    2. To protect Pakistan’s economic interests abroad.

    4. To promote peace, stability and friendly relations with Afghanistan.
