2015-09-20
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] The Defence Minister of Pakistan has said that his country and the region won’t be safe until there is insecurity in Afghanistan.
Slip of the tongue? Or mistranslation?
It could be a typo...
Khwaja Asif, has told Pakistan’s Geo news that Pakistan has shown its resolve in fighting the terrorism.

He said Pakistan has targeted Afghanistan’s enemies in its territory but Afghanistan has not shown its resolve in this regard.

His remarks come after a deadly attack at a Pakistani Air Force base that left 29 people killed and 29 others wounded in Peshawar on Friday.

23 of those killed belonged to the Air Force.

Pakistan’s military spokesman told reporters after the attack that it was carried out by a splinter group of Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).

He claimed that the attack was organized, executed and operated from Afghanistan.

“We have recordings which reveal the attack was planned executed and controlled from Afghanistan,” ISPR’s Asim Bajwa told reporters in a press conference.

However, he said that there is no believe that Afghan government would be involved in the Attack.
