Pakistan rebukes Afghan Taliban's 'deeply misguided approach' to resolving bilateral tensions
Warns that it will take all necessary measures under international law to eliminate threats to national security
On October 31, 2026, Pakistan's Ministry of Information and Broadcasting rebuked the Afghan Taliban for their approach to resolving bilateral tensions. The spokesperson, Zabihullah Mujahid, accused Pakistan of lacking the readiness to engage in dialogue, stating that efforts to ease the dispute had failed thus far. The Ministry emphasized that the Taliban's unwillingness to address terrorism emanating from Afghan soil was the root cause of deteriorating relations.
Pakistan maintains that terrorism is a red line and that the security of its citizens is non-negotiable. The ministry warned that Pakistan would not tolerate terrorist sanctuaries across its borders and reserved the right to take all necessary measures to eliminate threats to its national security.
