'Pakistan needs your help' says Foreign Minister Shah Mehmoud Qureshi

Pakistan's Foreign Minister Shah Mehmoud Qureshi has told the BBC's Lyse Doucet that the country's stability is at risk if the world does not offer assistance with the floods crisis.

His comments come after UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon described the floods as the worst disaster he had ever seen.

Mr Qureshi said the international community could not abandon Pakistan if the militants were to be defeated.
