Pakistan disappointed by US reliance on false narrative

[ziaulislam]

How about "This rhetoric that the world's most powerful military force with the most advance technological surveillance system is unable to win against a rag tag bunch of militants is due to Pakistan's support for them is getting old and needs to be revised"

How about how come world 95% opium a 20billion dillars $ of drugs is produced in Afghanistan which funds the war

It's like the Pakistani foreign ministry has the same template that it always uses. Just change the date and name & send it to the press. Abject incompetence. These sorts of statement insinuate that pakistan is guilty of the allegations leveled against it. Makes an entire country of 200 million seem like a teenage boy trying to get into the good graces of his elders. Extremely shameful stuff.

Its fault of 10million educated people who knowingly elected such people and even now support them.

If US leaves Afghanistan, the things will become more dangerous for Pakistan. SInce they wont have bargaing chip of supply route, US can take any economic action against Pakistan. Even now, US can strong arm Pakistan by using its economic clout.

Weeks? War lasted 4 years. South Korea was not antiquated North Korea was. If they were routed by UN Forces then how come they have stood on 38th Parallel since last 63 years ?

It is because USA observed the ceasefire

It was not a random tweet from his personal account, It was a change in policy
Bureaucrats are the ones making policy not the politicians, politicians can only prioritize / delay / discard policiys not make it.

Modi dosenot know anything about demonetization or its repercussions, similarly Nawaz is clueless about implementation and long term vision on CPEC. Politicians only read official statements prepared b some one else

Who told you that the bureaucrats make foreign policy in US? It is the president who is the most influential person along with other secretaries such as defense, foreign, etc. Most politicians and even US military wants to focus on good terms with Pakistan. The public in US doesn't give a fkk what goes in Afghanistan as there are several priorities in homeland.

Trump is such a clown character who is completely clueless on how to run the govt; left and right he is loosing and piss in off US allies. Turkeye, Germany, Phillipines, and now Pakistan.

To be fair, this is not Trump's policy. It's a policy that was long in the making and is as much Obama's policy as it's Trump's. When your country sends Husain Haqqani type traitors to represent its national interest, this sorts of policies shouldn't come as a surprise. In fact, Haqqani's input made it to this policy formulation. He's written opinion pieces that were well championed by the drafters if this new policy. The failure of your country to check the excess if Haqqani type politicians ( and there are many) shows the abject failure of your establishment. Haqqani is not alone. There are many like him both active and inactive and your establishment looks the other way. It calls for introspection

That is where the establishment failed. How could they let it slip so easily? Hussain, in pursuit of a happy American life for himself and family ranted against Pakistan and his lies helped enemies of Pakistan into luring the DC ears.

Haqqani is a traitor. Should be treated as one. Zardari's gift to Pakistan. There is a need to identify all traitor politicians and throw them to the firing squad.

Pakistan disappointed by US reliance on false narrative

ISLAMABAD: In a toughened up stance, Pakistan on Tuesday expressed disappointment over the US Afghan policy which it said “ignores the enormous sacrifices rendered by the Pakistani nation” urging Washington to work with Islamabad against terrorism “instead of relying on false narrative of safe havens.”

The hard-hitting statement came as initial reaction from the Foreign Office in response to US President Donald Trump’s recently announced Afghan policy that aims at targeting Pakistan to ‘do more’ in its counterterrorism drive.

“No country in the world has done more than Pakistan to counter the menace of terrorism. No country in the world has suffered more than Pakistan from the scourge of terrorism, often perpetrated from outside our borders. It is, therefore disappointing that the US policy statement ignores the enormous sacrifices rendered by the Pakistani nation in this effort,” the statement came following a crucial cabinet huddle with Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi that discussed the issue.

“As a matter of policy, Pakistan does not allow use of its territory against any country. Instead of relying on the false narrative of safe havens, the US needs to work with Pakistan to eradicate terrorism.”

Trump tough talk unlikely to move Pakistan

It said: “Pakistan reiterates its view that there is no exclusive military solution to the crisis in Afghanistan. The military action during the last 17 years has not brought peace to Afghanistan, and it is not likely to do so in the future. Only an Afghan-led, Afghan-owned politically negotiated solution can lead to sustainable peace in Afghanistan.”

The statement added that the threat to peace and security could not be isolated from the complex interplay of geopolitics, continued existence of festering disputes and pursuit of hegemonic policies. Non-resolution of the Jammu and Kashmir dispute remains the primary obstacle to peace and stability in the region.

They fucking better be more.than disappointed

blaming Hussain Haqqani for your troubles in America is a cope out

based on their experience in Afghanistan lower ranks of the US military completely distrust you. some of them are moving up the chain of command.

Before distrusting US those stupid soldiers should try to focus on their mission (which they have been unable to achieve in last 16 years) which was to eliminate threats inside Afghanistan.

It is not the job of Army Chief. it is the job of PM and Foreign Minister.

Right! where is our PM now? secondly we are so dull to give a quick response, as it is not a one person decision, you have to take all parties & institutions in one page to make a strong policy in this regard, so yes wait and wait

First of all another thread where all Indian Baboons should be ignored even before reading their Sensless comments.
Now the real thing. Pakistan should realize that Whatever US thinks or does does not matter Self interest matters. USA is not Voice of the world.
Look at turkey. USA is arming helping Kurds. Turkey being a NATO member don't Give a F*** What USA thinks or does. It never compromises its self interests when it comes to Kurds and US knows it very well. So they keep their mouth shut for good against Turkey.
Just ignore USA and Aggressively protect our own interest not by words or condemnation or reassurances but actions.
And i am still waiting for the day one Pakistani Establishment will Clearly Speak out that Afghan regime and Indian interests in Afghanistan is a security Threat to Pakistan and We will operate inside Afghanistan against anything that threatens our national interests.
And then we will see who will start to complaint here.
and please don't even bother to comment if you truly believe Pakistan economy is significantly dependent on US AID money or US is in any position to Sanction Pakistan over this matter or Pakistan is militarily significantly dependent on USA.
