Pakistan: Pakistan has categorically rejected and condemned the highly inflammatory, baseless, and irresponsible comments made by the Indian External Affairs Minister in his recent statement.

According to Radio Pakistan, Foreign Office Spokesperson Tahir Andrabi stated that Pakistan is a responsible state and all its institutions, including the armed forces, are dedicated to safeguarding the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country. Andrabi highlighted the May 2025 conflict as a clear demonstration of the professionalism of Pakistan’s armed forces and their resolve to defend the motherland and its people against any Indian aggression in an effective and responsible manner.

Andrabi further noted that the attempts by Indian leadership to defame Pakistan’s state institutions and leadership are part of a propaganda campaign designed to distract from India’s destabilizing actions in the region and beyond, as well as state-sponsored terrorism in Pakistan. He urged India to investigate the fascist and revisionist Hindutva ideology that has led to a reign of mob justice, lynchings, arbitrary detentions, and demolition of properties and places of worship.

The Spokesperson emphasized that Pakistan believes in coexistence, dialogue, and diplomacy, but remains united and resolute in its intent and ability to safeguard its interests and sovereignty.
