He expressed these views while talking to the outgoing Ambassador of Tajikistan to Pakistan, Ismatullo Nasredin, who paid a farewell call on him in Islamabad today.
Dr Arif Alvi also called for greater cooperation among the OIC member states in the areas of science and technology to meet modern-day challenges.
The President expressed satisfaction over the steadily expanding bilateral relations between Pakistan and Tajikistan in all areas of mutual interest, especially in trade, energy and defence.
Taking about the situation in Gaza, the President said that Pakistan deeply shares the pain of the people in Gaza where Israeli forces are committing genocide and gross human rights violations.
He regretted that the international community has failed to stop the Israeli atrocities, despite the painful imagery coming out of Gaza.
