Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has accused Afghanistan’s Taliban-led government of supporting terrorism under Indian patronage and spreading false narratives to conceal its internal divisions and governance failures. Speaking through an official statement on X, Asif said there is complete consensus among Pakistan’s political and military leadership on security and foreign policy toward Afghanistan, emphasising that Islamabad’s approach remains rooted in peace, stability, and the national interest.
افغان حکومت بھارتی سرپرستی میں دہشتگردی کی پشت پناہی کر رہی ہے، افغان حکومت اپنی ناکامیوں اور داخلی عدم استحکام پر پردہ ڈالنے کیلئے بیرونی ایجنڈے کو آگے بڑھا رہی ہے، پاکستان خطہ میں قیامِ امن استحکام کیلئے پُرعزم اور دہشتگردی کے خلاف متحد ہے۔
Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Asif warned that Islamabad possesses the capability to push the Taliban “back into the caves” if provoked, asserting that even a fraction of Pakistan’s military strength could dismantle the regime. He said Pakistan chose dialogue for peace at the request of allied Islamic nations but cautioned that any act of terrorism or aggression from Afghan soil would meet a decisive response.
