WASHINGTON: Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto stated on Thursday that Pakistan informed Afghan Taliban that we have a red line regarding the TTP ban, and that if the terrorist group is not under control, Islamabad’s ties with Kabul will suffer.
“We won’t ignore if we found out that Taliban are not stopping TTP,” Bilawal Bhutto said in a statement to the media at the Pakistani Embassy in Washington.
Since the Bannu hostage crisis rocked the nation, the security system in the nation has been on high alert due to the increased number of terror occurrences. Assaults on the police force in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa this year resulted in the deaths of over 120 officers and the injuries of over 125 others.
The senior Pakistani diplomat is currently in the US, where he attended meetings, spoke at the Atlantic Council in Washington, D.C., and met with the head of the UN.
Bilawal expressed his concern over the country’s deteriorating law and order situation as a result of an increase in TTP assaults from Afghan territory and promised Pakistani assistance if necessary if the Taliban carried out operations against the extremists.
Statement
According to him, there is no new agreement about anti-terrorism cooperation with the US.
“We firmly believe that money should be unfrozen for the Afghan people, not the Taliban. “They [the Taliban] pledged to take action against terrorist groups alongside the US and the rest of the world,” Bilawal stated.
In answer to a query, the foreign minister stated that the we should sell Pakistani building in Washington because it is in poor shape.
Taxes and other costs are at the top of the list. However, I oppose selling the hotel in New York.
When asked about the elections in Pakistan, Bilawal responded that they would take place as scheduled and that Imran Khan wanted early elections to help with the rigging.
According to the foreign minister, institutions kept to their constitutional obligations, but some politicians promoted animosity and gave the impression that political disagreements were a source of hostility.
