Top Pakistan commander criticises Rajnath Singh’s remarks on future terror attacks
To those who harbour hostile designs across our borders, our stance remains resolute and unambiguous. There is no space for conflict or war in a nuclearised environment, says General Aamer Raza
General Aamer Raza, a top military commander in Pakistan, has criticized Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh's comments on future terror attacks. In a press conference at the BJP headquarters in Lucknow, Singh stated that any future terrorist act originating from Pakistan will draw an even stronger response. This comes as the Pakistan Foreign Office condemned Singh's remarks, stating that they are provocative and ill-advised.
Raza's comments were made during the passing-out parade of cadets at the Pakistan Military Academy in Kakul. He reiterated Pakistan's commitment to defending every inch of its territory and claimed that the country was ready to defend itself against any aggression. Singh's statements were described as reckless by Pakistan's spokesperson, Sajjad Haider Khan, who emphasized Pakistan's readiness to safeguard its sovereignty and territorial integrity.
The Defence Minister's remarks, which came after India launched Operation Sindoor, Balakot airstrikes, and surgical strikes targeting terrorist targets in Pakistan, were met with criticism from Pakistan. Khan warned that any aggression against Pakistan would be met with a forceful response, emphasizing that Pakistan's restraint and commitment to peace should not be mistaken for weakness.
