Federal Minister for Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development Sajid Hussain Turi has strongly condemned the Afghanistan’s continuous violation of Kurram border, unprovoked aggression and targeting of civilian population at Kharlachi and Borki of Kurram. Mr. Turi has demanded an immediate ceasefire. The Federal Minister said that the people of Kurram and the Pakistan Army know well how to protect their land and befitting response to any foreign aggression. Mr. Sajid Hussain Turi added that aggression and war are not the solution to any problem and Pakistan has always tried to solve all problems with Afghanistan and other neighboring countries through dialogue. He said that Afghanistan is a brotherly neighbouring country and Pakistan wants all outstanding issues to be resolved through diplomatic channels and dialogue. Federal Minister said that the land disputes between the people living on both sides of the border should be resolved through bilateral jirga and diplomatic channels so that no such incident takes place in the future that can harm friendly relations between the two countries. Mr. Turi said that we have already held jirgas and negotiations with the Afghan government on the land dispute and all disputes must be sorted out amicably through negotiations.
