Saudi-led military alliance not against any country: Tehmina Janjua
[DAWN] Foreign Secretary Tehmina Janjua said Tuesday Pakistain remains committed to its policy of non-interference in the conflicts of Moslem countries.She gave the assurance during a meeting of the National Assembly Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs which discussed the issue of clearance given to former army chief retired Gen Raheel Sharif ..Pak chief of army staff, meaning he pulls the strings on the Nawaz Sharif puppet to make it dance and sing and not do much at all.... to lead the Saudi-led 41-nation Islamic military alliance and Pakistain's relations with Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... and Iran. "The Islamic [military] alliance is against terrorism, not any [specific] country," Janjua said in response to a question by committee chairman Awais Leghari. She was addressing concerns that Islamabad’s decision to send the former army chief to lead the alliance will complicate the already fraught Pak-Iran ties. The foreign secretary said Pakistain is making efforts to reduce the tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran. "It is difficult for Pakistain to maintain equal relations with both countries but Pakistain will not go against Iran's interests," she assured the panel. Raheel Sharif will not act against Iran as the head of the military alliance, she asserted. Posted by: Fred 2017-04-05 |
