The Minister of Defense, Khawaja Asif, has issued a clear warning that the increase in tensions with India could push the region dangerously close to the nuclear conflict, since Islamabad extends from a deadly cross -border assault that has described a “act of flagrant war.”
In an interview with a private television channel on Wednesday, Asif warned that the risk of climbing was “very real”, after the air attacks in India in Pakistan and Azad Jammu and Cashmira earlier in the morning.
“This region has faced nuclear threats before, and we could go to another strategic confrontation,” said the minister. “India is going through an important internal crisis.”
