PR No.157 Islamabad: April 24, 2019

There has been a lot of debate about Prime Minister's statement on use of Pakistan soil. The statement has been largely taken out of context. Prime Minister Imran Khan was talking about Non State Actors using Pakistani soil under foreign influence to carry out activities in Pakistan or coordinating from Pakistan, case in point is Kulbushn Jadev / alike and local facilitators. In the same manner, Pakistan is attacked using soil of Iran and Afghanistan. The same was clearly stated by the Prime Minister during his visit to Iran while referring to latest incident in Balochistan. That is why the Prime Minister is making all out efforts for peace across whole region. Prime Minister's statement being linked to any other context is an effort to misinterpret the expression which doesn’t serve Pakistan in any way. ?
