Khawaja Asif blasts Afghanistan after surge in TTP terror attacks
2023-07-16
[GEO.TV] Defence Minister Khawaja Asif Saturday slammed Afghanistan for not "fulfilling its neighbourly duty" and failing to abide by the Doha agreement.

Taking to Twitter, the defence minter wrote: "50/60 lakh Afghans have sought asylum in Pakistain over the last 40/50 years with all rights.

On the contrary, the bandidos forces of Evil who shed the blood of Paks have safe havens on Afghan soil."


He further wrote that the situation could not continue any longer and expressed his resolve to protect the country.

"Pakistain will use all its resources to protect its land and citizens, Insha Allah."

The defence minister's remarks came a day after the Pakistain Army expressed serious concerns about safe havens and liberty of action available to the banned Tehrik-e-Taliban
...Arabic for students...
Pakistain (TTP) in Afghanistan.

Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Syed Asim Munir on Friday visited Quetta Garrison, where he was briefed on the recent terrorist attack in Zhob in which nine soldiers embraced martyrdom.

Following his visit, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement it is expected that the interim Afghan government would not allow the use of its soil to perpetrate terror against any country, in the real sense and in line with commitments made in the Doha agreement.

Why is Afghanistan failing to curb terrorism?
Speaking to Geo News, Defence Analyst Lt Gen (r) Naeem Khalid Lodhi advised caution against pointing fingers towards Afghanistan.

"Instead of accusing Afghanistan directly, we should try to cooperate and figure out who is behind this and what powers are trying to create rifts between the two countries."

He added that several countries and agencies were hostile to Pakistain's closeness with Afghanistan, Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
and China.

Moreover, responding to Lodhi, another defence analyst, Brigadier (r) Haris Nawaz, said that it was obvious who did not want Pakistain to have good relations with the countries mentioned.

We know who does not want this. America and India do not want us to prosper, he said, adding: "This is why they have left their weapons there [in Afghanistan] when they left".

He further said tough decisions would have to be made to resolve the crisis facing the country.
