GENEVA:
A senior Pakistani diplomat warned India that she would respond with “greater ferocity and resolution” if he was attacked when he drew the attention of the United Nations Conference on Disarmament in Geneva to recent hostilities between the two South Asian nations.
“South Asia does not need another crisis – it requires a future shaped by cooperation, and not on the confrontation,” the Ambassador Bilal Ahmad, a permanent representative of Pakistan at the United Nations, told Geneva in Geneva, which began its session on Tuesday.
“If India again chooses the attack on the assault, the consequences – and the responsibility – will reside entirely at its door,” he said, warning, “Pakistan will be ready to meet any Indian aggression at each increasing level with greater ferocity and resolution”.
Pakistan, added the Ambassador Bilal Ahmad, will adhere to the ceasefire, stressing that his preference remains unchanged: a constructive commitment, a dialogue focused on the results and the peaceful resolution of all the pending disputes, including the dispute of Jammu and the cashmere, in accordance with the resolutions of the UN Security Council.
He said that India’s illegal threat and remedy against a nuclear weapons neighbor, now in the form of the revisionist posture of the Indian management – the so -called “new normal – constitutes a serious threat to strategic stability in South Asia.
Indeed, the strikes of missiles, drones and air of India in Pakistani territory at the beginning of the month were part of a larger scheme aimed at “normalizing the idea that military strikes between nuclear weapons are acceptable,” the Pakistani envoy to delegates told.
“India seeks to normalize the idea that military strikes between nuclear weapons are acceptable; that military losses are tolerable if the political narrative can be managed; that ghost victories can be claimed while real setbacks are refused – even when exposed by international media.”
