Pakistan says it hasn’t spared any terror group

[El Sidd]

Should we forgive Indian terrorism?

Never.

But the problem is. People will keep bringing Zia policy and blame PA for it but never point out the Indian involvement.

The same with Dhaka fiasco. They will blame Yahya Bhutto and everyone but not Mukti Bahani and the indian terrorism.

The elite are in bed with both the Congress and BJP. Its a vicious cycle of uncontrolled capitalism.

What can i say more.

Peace with India is possible only after resolving Kashmir issue, military spokesperson says

“But all this has come with a huge price. Besides cost in blood of over 75,000 Pakistanis, there has been loss of more than $123 billion [Dh451.6 billion] to the national exchequer,” said Major General Asif Ghafoor, Director General of the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) — the media wing of the Pakistan Armed Forces.

On the possibility of peace between India and Pakistan, Major General Ghafoor said he believed that all issues between the two nuclear-armed countries, including the core issue of Kashmir, need to be resolved to normalise the bilateral relationship.


What measures are being taken to eliminate terrorism from Pakistan? Would you share what has been done so far and what is planned?

Pakistan has fought a successful war against terrorism — a war which entered Pakistan through the 2,611-km scantily manned Pak-Afghan border when US-led coalition forces started military operations in Afghanistan against AQ [Al Qaida].

Effects of operation have visibly reduced the level of violence throughout Pakistan. This residual presence also takes advantage of 2.7 millions Afghan refugees inside Pakistan by morphing into peaceful refugees. There is a need to undertake their respectable repatriation to their country.

Presently there are over 200,000 Pakistani troops deployed in FATA [Federally Administered Tribal Areas] along Pak-Afghan border.

To safeguard own success, Pakistan has started to fence entire 2,611-km length of Pak-Afghan border and construction of new forts/posts along the border to deny free cross-border movement of terrorists.

Besides kinetic operations, Pakistan has undertaken major socio-economic development projects in cleared areas. This is aimed at carrying forward relative stability to enduring peace.

Pakistan is sending a military force to Saudi Arabia. Is it for the war in Yemen?

Pakistan’s contingent is part of the ongoing Pak-Saudi bilateral security cooperation since 1982. It is neither part of Islamic Force nor it shall be deployed outside KSA borders. The role of Pakistani troops is training and advice.

Pakistan has similar bilateral security arrangements with other GCC and regional countries.

What measures are being taken after the US suspended aid to Pakistan amid allegations that Pakistan is not doing enough to tackle terrorists and eliminate safe havens?

Pakistan has repeatedly conveyed the above stance to US authorities. Present violence inside Afghanistan should not be linked to Pakistan. Pakistan shall do anything to support achievement of peace in Afghanistan but can neither fight inside Afghanistan nor will do it again inside Pakistan.

To ensure achieving peace in Afghanistan, ungoverned spaces inside Afghanistan would have to be cleared by Afghan and RSM [Resolute Support Mission] Forces. A better Pak-Afghan border security arrangement are quintessential towards this end. Pakistan has long been pursuing this with Afghanistan.

How do you see UAE-Pakistan relations?

Pakistan maintains excellent brotherly relationship with UAE. UAE has assisted Pakistan phenomenally for socio-economic development projects during our counter-terrorism effort in FATA.

We don’t foresee any deterioration in our relationship and look forward to continued strong relationship. UAE Army contingent is participating in a Pakistan National Day Parade this month.

Pakistan is blamed whenever there is any terrorist attack in Afghanistan? Why?

Various independent international surveys report that more than 50 per cent of Afghan areas are not under effective control of Afghan forces. There is scanty presence of Afghan forces along Pak-Afghan border. Lack of effectiveness inside Afghanistan cannot be done away with by throwing blame on Pakistan.

If Afghanistan still believes that there is a support to TTA from Pakistani soil, they must come up with actionable intelligence.

No country other than a Pakistan is more keen to see a peaceful Afghanistan as we are the immediate neighbours. Peace in Afghanistan is important for peace in Pakistan.

What is the biggest threat to Pakistan currently. Is Pakistan Army still ‘India focused’ or more focused on handling issue of terrorism?

Threat from India is perpetual. India is not only challenging Pakistan conventionally along our eastern borders, but is busy in fomenting unrest through terrorism using Afghan soil. And this is not mere rhetoric. Pakistan has arrested a serving Indian naval officer, Kulbhushan Jadhav working as RAW [Research and Analysis Wing, India’s primary foreign intelligence agency] agent in Pakistan. So we are not having any let-up in safeguarding against Indian threat.

We have successfully fought against threat of terrorism and now consolidating it for enduring peace and stability. While threat remains from India, both in conventional and sub-conventional domain, our biggest challenge is to maintain this stability with threat still residing inside Afghanistan coupled with economic difficulties.

Having said that, Pakistan has a strong and combat-hardened professional standing armed forces

Is there any chance of normalising relations between Pakistan and India?

For normalised Indo-Pak relationship, all issues including the core issue of Kashmir between the two nuclear countries need to be resolved.

How is the army making sure of continuity of the CPEC after the next general elections?

Continuity of China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is not linked to elections or any other event. China is our time-tested friend and CPEC is a nation-to-nation project.

We know enemies of peace and of Pakistan are trying to scuttle CPEC. Pakistan Army has the responsibility for security of the project, which is engine of progress not only for Pakistan but for the region. For this special security, a division has been raised.

Do you think it is the right time to invest in Pakistan? Is it safe for foreign investment?

Pakistan has been successful in war against terrorism. Peace has gradually returned to Pakistan. We are moving towards enduring stability. CPEC is progressing well. All this is affording economic investment opportunities in Pakistan.

Peace and prosperity is our destination and we expect the world to contribute in promoting peace and economy not only in Pakistan but in the region as well.


How are the above points hypocritical or self-serving propaganda? Also, politics is about serving your own country's interests before the interests of other countries. Every country does this.

The answer is in your mind, and resounding loudly. Everyone can sense it and hear it, before even you speak it. Read your sentences through carefully, and see for yourself what you have admitted.

Thanks for the riddle but I'd rather you gave a direct and clear response. That being said and looking back, I should have used the phrase "By the way" instead of "Also" when talking about serving one's own country's interest in politics. Regardless, I don't see how what was said in the interview was hypocritical or irregularly "self-serving" — certainly not to such an extent to warrant a comment on.

What, not even a guess?

Disingenuous.

Most respectful sir, maybe you are quite right, but i in my humble opinion, this is the only viable and long lasting solution for this issue ............ maybe this will happen in far future or maybe in near future but this is the only way forward towards the ultimate peace

Me apke thoughts ko janta or pehchanta ho.

Per its more kind of routine and indoctrination rather than a thought through opinion.

or kashmir issue fauj solve hony nhi degi

Chacha, once before yeh fauj ghutne par gire huwe thein. At that time, certain solemn assertions were made, certain solemn commitments made - by that same fauj that you speak of so fearfully. For 13 years after that, they kept their word. It is easy to take the cynical view that they had their hands full with the murderous battle for Afghanistan; it was a Pakistani battle, and your fauj was involved in every way short of deploying in order of battle. The honorable and dignified view is that the fauj kept its word until its leadership changed. From 1989 onwards, those promises and commitments became not worth the paper they were written on, or the breath spent in speaking them. From then on, it has been the unremitting objective of the fauj, the boys, as one of your best journalists calls them, to keep India in a state of turbulence and turmoil, and it has deployed a series of alphabet soup terrorist organisations to achieve its ends. Terrorist not to our reckoning; terrorist in the eyes of world multilateral bodies, terrorist in the eyes of its closest ally in the ongoing war for Afghanistan. These organisations included the Lashkar e Toyyaba, the Harkat e Mujahedin, the Jaish e Mohammed, among the most prominent.

Never, ever has Pakistan admitted that these are terrorist organisations; they have always been exempted on the grounds that they were not terrorists for the Pakistani people. They killed only outside Pakistan.

This is the hypocritical part of the ISPR vapourings.

The fauj itself has explained what can be the future, and will be the only future. What they do not admit on their own, without compulsion, without threat, and their cavalier treatment of commitments and undertakings, can only be imposed on them, and in a manner that will not be dependent on anyone's word or verbal or written commitments. It is not being suggested that India should do it. It is just to point out to you and to others that they have left the rest of the world only one single option. Nobody else is responsible for this but they. As for the future, Che sara, sara.
