Former Azad Jammu and Kashmir President and Pakistan's ex-ambassador to the United States, Sardar Masood Khan, has sharply criticised what he termed as "baseless and politically charged" Indian efforts to portray Pakistan as a threat in the intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) domain.
In an exclusive interview with a news network, Khan dismissed recent allegations linking Pakistan to intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) development as fabricated and politically motivated distortions. He claimed the narrative is being deliberately amplified by Indian intelligence agencies and media outlets as part of a broader campaign to undermine Pakistan's strategic credibility and disrupt its growing relationship with Washington.
Khan pointed to a recent article in Foreign Affairs that mentioned Pakistan's missile programme only briefly, noting that the focus was primarily on nations such as China, Russia, North Korea and Iran.
"Despite being referenced in just one paragraph, Indian actors have inflated this into a full-fledged disinformation drive," Khan said, calling the move "an act of narrative desperation."
