Pakistan says committed to standing by ceasefire arrangement
Pakistan on Tuesday reiterated its commitment to stand by the ceasefire arrangement even as it criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s remarks during his address to the nation.
In his first address to the nation after Operation Sindoor, Prime Minister Modi on Monday sternly warned Pakistan that India will not succumb to nuclear blackmail and sent a clear message to the world: terror and trade, terror and talks cannot go together.
Pakistan categorically rejects the “provocative" assertions made by the Indian Prime Minister in his address yesterday, the Foreign Office said in a statement on Tuesday.
It said that at a time when international efforts are being made for regional peace and stability, his comments have the potential to escalate the situation.
“Pakistan remains committed to the recent ceasefire understanding and taking necessary steps towards de-escalation and regional stability," it claimed.
The Foreign Office claimed that the portrayal of Pakistan as seeking a ceasefire in “despair and frustration" is yet another “blatant lie".
It alleged that Indian actions set a “dangerous precedent for aggression, dragging the entire region to the brink of disaster".
