While addressing
IMCTC's Defence Ministers conference at Riyadh, the Military Commander of IMCTC
General (R) Raheel Shareef, emphasized that the Sole objective of IMCTC is
counter terrorism and it is not against any country or any sect.
He said that
while all individual states are making efforts against the menace of terrorism,
the required level of synergy and the resources are lacking. He said
that IMCTC will support its partners mainly through intelligence sharing and
capacity building.
General
Raheel said that Muslim world is the biggest sufferer of the menace of
terrorism and in last 6 years alone, more than 70% of all deaths
attributed to terrorism, have occurred in Muslim countries. Fight against
the faceless enemy with extremist ideology is complex and challenging,
requiring collaboration. Pakistan has turned the tide and had has defeated
the menace.
