Can PM Imran unite the Muslim world?
Sep 26, 2020
Prime Minister Imran Khan, who is already known for his pan-Islamist ideas, has once again emerged as a leader of the Muslim world. The subject matter of his speech at the United Nations General Assembly, 75 th session, on September 25, was reflective of his ideological position; the Muslim world must get united to counter Islamophobia.
Notably, in September last year, Prime Minister Imran Khan, along with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and then Malaysian counterpart Mahathir Mohamad agreed to jointly counter anti-Islam forces. The three leaders reportedly took part in a trilateral summit on the sidelines of the 74th session of the UNGA where they agreed on possible measures to counter Islamophobia.
PM also announced on his Twitter handle that a TV channel was going to be launched by these three countries. “President Erdogan, PM Mahatir and myself had a meeting today in which we decided our 3 countries would jointly start an English language channel dedicated to confronting the challenges posed by Islamophobia and setting the record straight on our great religion – Islam.”
He further noted that “Misperceptions which bring people together against Muslims would be corrected; the issue of blasphemy would be properly contextualized; series & films would be produced on Muslim history to educate/inform our own people & the world; Muslims would be given a dedicated media presence.”
