Commenting on the interview contents of the Indian Defence Minister, Pakistan’s foreign office said that “India’s assertion of its preparedness to extra-judicially execute more civilians, arbitrarily pronounced as ‘terrorists’, inside Pakistan constitutes a clear admission of culpability,”
Pakistan believes that such “myopic and irresponsible behavior” not only undermines regional peace but also impedes the prospect of constructive engagement in the long term.
“Pakistan stands resolute in its intent and ability to safeguard its sovereignty against any act of aggression,” the ministry added.
While talking with the Guardian newspaper Rajnath Singh said that India would enter Pakistan to kill anyone who escapes over its border after trying to carry out attacks and kept saying that India had killed about 20 people in Pakistan since 2020 as part of a broader plan to target “terrorists residing on foreign soil”.
