Islamabad, February 21, 2023 (PPI-OT):Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari says the US withdrawal from Afghanistan has led to increase in terrorist incidents in Pakistan. In an interview with a television channel during the Munich Security Conference, he referred to the recent incidents of terrorism in Peshawar and Karachi in this regard.
The Foreign Minister reiterated Pakistan’s commitment to confront the terrorists on its soil. However, he said the dangers posed by terrorism can be reduced by finding a permanent solution to the problems in Afghanistan. Referring to the difficult economic condition faced by Pakistan, the Foreign Minister said it is the result of Ukraine war and last year’s floods in the country. However, he said Pakistan has the capacity to become an emerging economy and resolve its financial issues.
