According to a statement issued by the Foreign Office, Dar made the remarks during a telephone conversation with Kuwait s Foreign Minister Sheikh Jarrah Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah.
The two leaders discussed the evolving regional security situation.
During the call, the Kuwaiti foreign minister expressed serious concern over the continued attacks on his country s territory and voiced hope that all parties would exercise restraint and fully implement the Islamabad MoU.
He also appreciated Pakistan s constructive and mediatory role in promoting dialogue and regional stability.
Dar underscored the urgent need for de-escalation, emphasised respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all states, and said maintaining regional peace and security should remain the foremost priority.
Both leaders agreed to remain in close contact on issues of mutual interest.
The conversation came hours after Kuwait accused Iran of targeting civilian sites and critical infrastructure following attacks on an oil facility, a power plant and a water desalination facility.
In a statement, Kuwait s foreign ministry said the repeated attacks on vital installations reflected "a systematic hostile approach" targeting civilian infrastructure and endangering public safety.
Meanwhile, Reuters reported that Pakistan and Kuwait are holding preliminary discussions on expanding defence cooperation in exchange for greater energy collaboration and investment.
According to the report, the negotiations remain at an early stage and could be affected by rising tensions between the United States and Iran.
Reuters had earlier reported concerns in Islamabad that Pakistan s existing defence agreement with Saudi Arabia could draw the country into the ongoing US-Iran conflict.
Following a Houthi attack on Saudi Arabia earlier this week, Pakistan reportedly conveyed to Iran that any attack on the Kingdom would be treated as an attack on Pakistan.
Kuwait currently maintains a limited defence cooperation agreement with Pakistan covering military training and joint exercises, signed in 2023.
According to Reuters, Kuwait is seeking broader defence cooperation similar to Pakistan s agreement with Saudi Arabia, including the deployment of troops, fighter aircraft, drones, air defence systems and other military assets.
However, Pakistani officials familiar with the discussions indicated that Islamabad is not considering the deployment of combat troops at this stage.
"Kuwait s wish list includes everything, but we are not and cannot consider a deployment of combat troops at this stage," a Pakistani security official told Reuters.
A Middle Eastern source also confirmed discussions between the two countries on defence procurement but said it remained unclear whether they would result in a formal defence pact.
Pakistan s military media wing and Kuwait s information ministry did not comment on the report.
Regional security cooperation has gained momentum over the past year, with Gulf countries exploring alternatives to traditional security arrangements.
According to Reuters, Turkiye, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are also working on a separate multilateral mutual defence agreement, while Bahrain is reportedly interested in a similar arrangement and Jordan has expressed interest in weapons procurement and military training cooperation.
