Pakistan will not compromise on honour and dignity: FO spokesperson

Islamabad: Pakistan has reaffirmed that it will not compromise its sovereignty, even though it seeks peaceful settlement of disputes.

According to Kashmir Media Service, addressing a news briefing in Islamabad, Foreign Office spokesperson Shafqat Ali Khan stated that India was the one who forced the entire region into conflict. He emphasised that Pakistan responded to Indian aggression and demonstrated that there would be no compromise on the nation’s honour and dignity.

He said in response to Indian aggression, Pakistan launched ‘Operation Bunyan-um-Marsoos’. The Pakistan armed forces shot down six Indian warplanes during this operation, he added.

He said: “The recent announcement of a Pakistan-India ceasefire is a positive development. We urge India to faithfully adhere to its implementation.” He said Pakistan appreciated the role of friendly countries in facilitating the ceasefire and reiterated support for US President Donald Trump’s announcement on engaging with Pakistan and India to seek a resolution to the Kashmir dispute.

The spokesperson said Pakistan always believed in dialogue and the restoration of peace and wanted a solution to all issues, including occupied Kashmir, through negotiations.

At the same time, he warned that any future aggression against Pakistan would be met with a strong response.

Furthermore, the Foreign Office said that India has orchestrated assassination plots not only in Pakistan but also in other countries. He made it clear that whenever the topic of terrorism arises, Pakistan will present its stance unequivocally. “We possess concrete evidence and material regarding India’s role,” he stated.
