Jaishankar's remarks on Pakistan's military spark strong backlash from Islamabad.
India’s External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar’s recent remarks regarding Pakistan’s military leadership, particularly Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir, have prompted a strong backlash from Pakistan, labeling the statements as “highly inflammatory, baseless, and irresponsible.” Jaishankar emphasized the link between Pakistan’s military and its support for terrorism, asserting that India’s challenges stem from such associations. The comments follow India’s Operation Sindoor, which targeted terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan in response to a deadly attack. Pakistan’s Foreign Office condemned Jaishankar’s statements as an attempt to divert attention from India’s actions and reiterated its commitment to national security and defense against aggression, reflecting the ongoing tensions between the two nations.
