Ahmad Shahzad OBE:
Chairman of Human Rights Society of
Pakistan UK
The Human Rights Society of Pakistan UK strongly condemns the recent comments made by Mike Huckabee, suggesting that Israel has the right to occupy land extending “to the River Nile.”
We consider these remarks deeply irresponsible and dangerous. Such statements not only contravene established principles of international law but also undermine the core values enshrined in the United Nations Charter. They risk legitimising territorial expansion through force, which is in clear violation of international norms and human rights standards.
The Society reaffirms that any claims to territorial expansion at the expense of others are unacceptable and threaten global peace and stability. Respect for internationally recognised borders, adherence to human rights, and commitment to peaceful resolution of conflicts must remain paramount.
We urge the international community to reject such rhetoric and to uphold justice, legality, and human dignity for all.
