Pakistan has called for the preservation of balance in the defence capabilities of states at the lowest level of armaments and military forces.Speaking at a key U.N. panel, Pakistani delegate Atif Raza underscored the special responsibility of militarily significant states in promoting regional security.He said conventional arms control, risk reduction, and confidence-building measures have laid the groundwork for peace in many regions of the world.Pakistan envoy said when a state spurs these regional approaches because it perceives its global ambitions as incompatible, it obstructs the path to peace.He said without progress towards eliminating underlying disputes and causes of mistrust between states, the utility of CBMs diminishes.'He further said regional security is global security, and denying one imperils the other.Source: Radio Pakistan
