In the weekly press briefing, Foreign Office spokesperson Dr Mohammad Faisal said Pakistain strongly rejects accusations of supporting the Afghan Taliban and the Haqqani network and opposes terrorism in any shape and form.
Pakistain has been rendering continuous sacrifices for the cause of global peace. It will not allow its land to be used against any of its neighbouring countries, and it expects the same from its neighbours, said the spokesperson.

470 attacks were carried out in Pakistain from Afghanistan, he said.
The spokesperson noted that the 27 suspects handed over to Afghan authorities recently were in connection to the Afghan Taliban and Haqqani network.
We want a solution to the Afghan issue in accordance with the wishes of the Afghan public, the spokesperson said, adding that Pakistain wants immediate and dignified return of Afghan refugees to their country.
Pakistain’s foreign policy is in accordance with the wishes of its people and national interests, he said.
