SOCHI, Russia: The National Security Adviser (NSA) of Pakistan Lt. General (retd) Nasser Khan Janjua has that Pakistan pursues a policy of friendly neighbourhood and believes in resolution of disputes through dialogue and according to resolutions of United Nations.
While speaking on the topic of “Flashpoints of International instability: from conflict to dialogue” at IX International Meeting of High-Level Officials Responsible for Security Matters held in Sochi on April 24-26, 2018, Nasser Janjua also reiterated that Pakistan continues to follow a policy of non-interference in the internal affairs of other Countries and refrains from fighting others’ wars and is purely focused on the economic revival and social development.
The national security adviser highlighted that the strategic security paradigm of the World is evolving and undergoing a fast shift. He reiterated Pakistan’s resolve to find solutions to the conflicts through dialogue and in line with the UN resolutions.
Highlighting the flashpoints, the NSA questioned the forum that can anyone work out the price Afghanistan, Pakistan, Egypt, Libya, Syria and Yemen have paid and continue to pay for the war inflicted upon them.
Nasser Janjua categorically pointed out “Whether someone can see what is happening to innocent Kashmiris, Palestinians and Rohingya Muslims and whether someone can hear the cries of Kashmiris or are they just falling on the numb and dumb conscience of the World”.
The World of today is locked in a cycle of escalation and provocation and is only sub-servient to its self-interests, the NSA added.
Elaborating upon Pakistan’s contributions to ensure global peace and security, the adviser counted upon the successes achieved by Pakistan, its armed forces, law enforcement Agencies (LEAs) and people. He also highlighted the sacrifices made by the Country.
