Pakistan rejects India's disapproval of Afghan strikes

Pakistan on Wednesday strongly rejected India's disapproval of its recent legal defence team action against assailant hideouts in Afghanistan, terming New Delhi's comment "baseless" and stated India was actively sponsoring assailant groups operating against Pakistan from Afghan soil.

The External Office issued the response after India's Government department of External Affairs (MEA) condemned Pakistan's cross-frontier strikes, describing them as a "blatant statute of aggression" and a security concern to regional calm and stability. India had also asserted that the strikes reflected Pakistan's "persistent pattern of reckless behaviour" and amounted to an attempt to "externalise its internal failures through desperate acts of unrest beyond its borders".

Responding to the Indian allegations, External Office representative Tahir Andrabi stated Pakistan's actions were "legitimate, targeted and proportionate" measures against assailant general facilities in Afghanistan.

"Pakistan rejects the baseless comment by the Indian Government department of External Affairs on Pakistan's legitimate, targeted and proportionate actions against assailant general facilities in Afghanistan," the representative stated.

The External Office further described India's remarks as "preposterous", saying they had been made by a country that had historically interfered in and undermined the sovereignty and territorial integrity of its neighbours in contravention of the UN Charter.

The representative also emphasized out that India was continuing to suppress the right to self-determination of the individuals of Jammu and Kashmir in violation of relevant UN resolutions.
