GENEVA:
A superior Pakistani diplomat warned India that he will respond with “greater ferocity and resolution” if he attacked again while caughting the attention of the UN conference on disarmament in Geneva to recent hostilities between the two nations of southern Asia.
“Southern Asia does not need another crisis: it requires a future formed by cooperation, not confrontation,” said Bilal Ahmad, permanent representative of Pakistan to the UN offices in Geneva, said the 65 -member forum established by the international community to negotiate weapons control and disharmony agreements, which began their session on Tuesday.
“If India chooses the path of aggression again, the consequences, and responsibility, are completely at their door,” he said, warning, “Pakistan will be ready to meet any Indian aggression at each growing level with greater ferocity and resolution.”
Pakistan, Bilal Ambassador Ahmad added, will adhere to the high fire, noting that his preference remains unchanged: constructive commitment, results -oriented dialogue and the peaceful resolution of all pending disputes, including the Jammu and Kashmir dispute, according to UN safety resolutions.
He said that the illegal threat of India and the use of force against a neighbor with nuclear weapons, now in the form of the revisionist position of Indian leadership, the so -called “new normality, raises a serious threat to strategic stability in southern Asia.
In fact, the attacks of missile, drones and air of India in the Pakistani territory earlier this month were part of a larger pattern intended to “normalize the idea that military attacks between nuclear weapons states are acceptable,” said the Pakistani envoy to the delegates.
“India seeks to normalize the idea that military attacks among nuclear weapons states are acceptable; that military losses are tolerable if the political narrative can be handled; that ghost victories can be claimed while the real setbacks refuse, even when international media are exposed.”
