‘It’s not our document’: Pakistan’s top diplomat on Trump’s Gaza plan
Ishaq Dar says President Trump’s plan, released by White House, does not include all of our proposals.
Pakistan’s top diplomat, Ishaq Dar, has said that US President Donald Trump’s 20-point plan to end the Israeli war on Gaza is “not our document”.
“This is not our document, which we sent to them. There are some key areas that we want covered… If they are not covered, they will be covered,” he said, adding that the immediate objectives of the plan were to ensure a ceasefire, “stop the blood, let the humanitarian aid flow and end forced displacement”, Dar said while addressing a news conference in the capital Islamabad on Tuesday.
Consider Trump’s announcement of the 20-point plan as “an announcement from their side”, he added.
“We have issued a joint statement on behalf of eight countries. We own this. If there is any difference anywhere, we would go by, we are committed to this,” he said, referring to a joint statement issued by eight Muslim countries supporting Trump’s plan.
Leaders of Türkiye, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE, Egypt, Jordan and Indonesia held a meeting with Trump on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly session, where the US president discussed his plan for ending the Israeli onslaught in Gaza.

Some issues in Trump’s Gaza plan ‘require clarification, negotiation’: Qatar
Sep 30, 2025
Qatar’s Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed has said some issues in US President Donald Trump’s Gaza plan “require clarification and negotiation”.
“Trump’s proposed plan achieves a key objective by ending the war, but there are some issues that require clarification and negotiation,” Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani told the Doha-based Al Jazeera television.
“We hope everyone will look at the plan constructively and seize the opportunity to end the war,” he said.
The Qatari premier said that Doha has not yet received Hamas’ response to the plan.
“We still do not know Hamas’s response to the plan, which requires consensus with the Palestinian factions.”
Sheikh Mohammed said mediators Qatar and Egypt made it clear to Hamas during Monday’s meeting that their main goal was to stop the war.
“The main focus for Qatar now is how to end the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza,” he said, adding that his country’s priority is “ending the war, famine, killings, and displacement in Gaza”.
“What was presented yesterday were principles in the plan that require discussion of their details and how to work through them,” he said.
The premier said Arab and Islamic countries have made every effort “to ensure that Palestinians remain on their land and achieve a two-state solution”.
“The current phase is important and is part of negotiations that are not expected to produce perfect language,” he said. “The current path must be built upon and made effective and successful.”
