Claim: A viral post has been circulating widely on Facebook and other social media platforms, claiming that Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Federal Minister for @ForeignOfficePk, @MIshaqDar50, has given a statement suggesting Pakistan should recognize Israel. The alleged quote says: “Recognizing Israel will not bring the end of the world. By doing so, we can benefit 90%, expand our businesses tenfold, and get 70% of our debt waived.” The graphic closely resembles the visual style of @siasatpk , leading many users to mistakenly believe it was authentic. The public reacted strongly, criticized the claim, and expressed anger over the idea, calling it unacceptable, inappropriate, and contrary to national values.
Fact-Check: Our team’s investigation confirms that the viral quote is false and fabricated. There is no such statement from Deputy PM and Foreign Minister @MIshaqDar50 on any official account, nor on any verified government platform. Furthermore, the image has not been posted by @siasatpk; its layout only imitates their design without proper branding, indicating deliberate misinformation. According to the @ForeignOfficePk, Foreign Minister @MIshaqDar50 has issued no such statement and Pakistan’s policy on Israel remains unchanged. In previous official statements, Pakistan has consistently upheld its position, stating that it does not recognize Israel and will not do so until a just and lasting solution to the Palestinian issue is achieved, including the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital. Conclusion: It is now clear that this claim is baseless and fabricated. The public is strongly advised to verify such content through official government sources before accepting or sharing it. Spreading unverified political statements can harm national interest and create unnecessary confusion among citizens.
