Pakistan rejects the baseless statement by the Indian Ministry of External Affairs on Islamabad’s legitimate, targeted and proportionate actions against terrorist infrastructure in Afghanistan.
This was stated by Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Tahir Andrabi, while responding to media question seeking Pakistan’s reaction to the statement made by the Ministry of External Affairs of India.
The Foreign Office Spokesperson said this preposterous statement has been made by a country that has historically interfered in and undermined the sovereignty and territorial integrity of its neighbouring countries, in contravention of the UN Charter, and continues to suppress the right to self-determination of the Kashmiris in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir, in violation of the relevant UN resolutions.
Tahir Andrabi said India has also been actively aiding and sponsoring terrorist groups operating from Afghan soil against Pakistan, in violation of the relevant UN Security Council sanctions regime, and continues to play the role of a regional spoiler.
The Foreign Office Spokesperson said India’s baseless accusations and inflammatory statements against Pakistan must not be entertained.
He said Pakistan has been and will continue to take all appropriate measures to uphold the safety and security of its citizens in accordance with international law.
