Hina asks whether India deserves regional security role after 2019 like military misadventure

Islamabad, June 22, 2023 (PPI-OT): Minister of State Hina Rabbani Khar has asked the world whether a country like India, which is “a very belligerent neighbour who indulged in military adventurism by sending jets to Pakistan in 2019. “deserves a role in regional security”. In an interview with Voice of America (VoA) she termed the move “unprecedented” and “unthinkable”. “The world has to see whether there was conflict preservation instead conflict resolution due to them (India), then it did not augur well for the region. We hope that nothing will go wrong for the region and Pakistan,” she remarked.

Commenting on the Indian Prime Minister’s visit to the US, Minister of State Hina Rabbani Khar said that Pakistan would always look positively at bilateral ties between sovereign countries and not view them in a negative light. “There is no need to look at anything negatively,” she said. The Indian PM is currently in the US for his first visit with the full diplomatic status of an official state visit.

The visit is also the third state visit of Joe Biden’s presidency and the third by an Indian leader to the US, indicating the strengthening bond between Washington and New Delhi.
