COAS General Qamar Javed Bajwa & United States Secretary of State, Antony J. Blinken held a telephone conversation today

If it was to be a protocol and Secretary wanted to talk to the government, he would have called the defence minister. But strangely PTI govt has an extremely ineffective defence minister. He is a good local politicians but not a good defence minister.

There is no need to protest. COAS does not get the call directly without consent of the political government.

[Vapour]

Not agreed even 1 % .
This conversation is purely regarding future military planning of US regarding Afghanistan , and who well inform person could be then COAS of Pakistan . Don't be emotional . Russian FM met with COAS so you can say it was a bit related to that as well . Pakistani civilian govt has already created a lot of mess in last 3 years . Don't advise them to take another Panga with another institution .

Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa has welcomed US President Joe Biden’s announcement of troop withdrawal from Afghanistan by September this year.

The statement comes after Angela Ageler, US Charge d’ Affairs to Pakistan, called on General Qamar, a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Thursday.

During the meeting, matters of mutual interest and overall regional security situation including recent developments in Afghan peace process were discussed in detail, it added.

“The COAS welcomed President Biden’s announcement of withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan by September 2021,” the ISPR handout read.

He further reiterated that a prosperous, stable and peaceful Afghanistan is in the best interest of Pakistan in particular and region in general.

The military’s media wing said Gen Qamar also expressed hope for greater Pak-US bilateral cooperation in all domains in future.

The visiting dignitary appreciated Pakistan’s sincere efforts for bringing peace and stability in the region, specially the Afghan reconciliation and also assured of US continued assistance for the common cause of peace in Afghanistan.

Earlier in the day, the Foreign Office called for progress in the peace process before all foreign forces leave Afghanistan in a first formal reaction to President Biden's announcement to end the longest foreign war in American history.

While the Biden administration said troops withdrawal cannot be conditioned based any more, Islamabad believes that drawdown has to be accompanied by progress in the peace process.

This means that Pakistan in so many words want the foreign forces to stay on till some tangible progress is made in the peace efforts.

"In our view, it is important that the withdrawal of foreign troops from Afghanistan coincides with the progress in the peace process," the FO said in a formal reaction to the Biden's decision to complete the troop withdrawal by September 11.

Meet these peoples but remember this very important fact “ we can never deliver or make Taliban do things on behalf of USA & Russia. This is a very unnecessary trip by our COAS tgoing to USA for. He will only succeed the anti strong Pakistan lobby there that we aided and control the Taliban, to win .

our silly establishment will never learn to keep its noses out these terrible problems. In the 90s we had zero influence on Taliban we could not even make them give up osama bin Ladan lol

look at the cost, war terror turned out for us in Pakistan

Sounds like a goodbye with a clear f*** you from both to eachother.

 

[ghazi52]

Yes, watch their body language ,

 

[BATMAN]

Did Bajwa mention of any thing of Pakistani interest? like.... permission of re-export of engines used in T-129.

 

[khanasifm]

Nice move, cut out the middle man, and speak to the man in charge.


Rs 5 lakh fine, and two years in jail for you.

Gen Baja was asked during his visit to ... by some officer the same question why are you getting involved . His answer a valid question but what can I do when politician cannot get along they come ask help, when karachi businessman donot get along with GOVT they complain to army, everyone last stop is army and we donot want things to go south

Same is the case

C19 cannot be handle call army, census call army

Cannot deal with legally prosecuting terrorist call army and army courts

Bottomline all institutions are pretty much dead after zardaris and Patwaris era and need to be cleaned first of the garbage and revamped

 

[CrazyZ]

Blinkin should not call the COAS. He should of called the civilian government. They are democratically elected.

Sounds like a goodbye with a clear f*** you from both to eachother.

Knowing the history of these Pakistan Military generals, I don't think so. Don't be surprised if these same generals make dangerous decisions again which will destroy the lives of ordinary Pakistanis even further. I am saying this because this has happened again, and again and again since 1947.
