Indian allegations, provocative statements not conducive to peace: FO

Pakistan says there must not be any miscalculation about it's resolve to thwart any aggression

ISLAMABAD:
After Indian defence minister warned Pakistan of a “strong response” for alleged cross-border terrorism, the Foreign Office on Saturday responded by saying that unfounded allegations and provocative statements were not conducive to peace in the region.

Following a week where 11 security personnel were killed in attacks in Indian Kashmir, for which Indian Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar had blamed Pakistan, Times of India reported.


"I feel that there has to be some strong response which will once and for all reduce these blatant attempts. It's an open secret that they (militants) came from Pakistan."

In response, the FO spokesperson in statement on Saturday said that these “unfounded allegations and provocative statements are not conducive to peace in the region.”

“There must not be any miscalculation about Pakistan's resolve to defend itself and thwart any aggression.”
