On October 12, 2024, French President Emmanuel Macron made an impassioned plea for an end to arms exports that are being used in the ongoing conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon. Macron’s statement comes in the wake of increasing international pressure to halt the sale of weapons to countries involved in the Middle Eastern conflicts, which have led to significant civilian casualties.
Macron’s call resonates strongly with global human rights groups that have been urging Western nations to take responsibility for their role in fueling regional conflicts. France, a major arms exporter, has been criticized for its defense deals with nations that are involved in military operations in the Middle East.
In Pakistan, Macron’s comments have been followed closely, as the country has been affected by the broader geopolitical tensions in the region. Pakistan has called for peace and stability in the Middle East and has often voiced concern over the humanitarian impact of the conflict on civilians.
