On the other hand, Pakistan&#8217;s resounding success in neutralising the Indian fighter jets and military targets is an indisputable fact.<\/p>\n<p>Shafqt Ali Khan said instead of misleading their compatriots, the Indian leaders would be well-advised to acknowledge the losses incurred by their armed forces and accept the active role played by the third parties in realising the ceasefire.<\/p>\n<p>FO\u2019s spokesperson said India did not avail itself of the immediate offer made by the Prime Minister of Pakistan for a transparent and independent probe into the Pahalgam Attack. And instead, it chose the path of belligerence and aggression. It also acted as a judge, jury, and executioner at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>Shafqat Ali Khan said against this backdrop, any claims regarding the so-called &#8220;Operation Mahadev&#8221; do not hold any significance for Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p>He said the account given by the Indian Home Minister is replete with fabrications, leading to serious questions about its credibility.<\/p>\n<p>The spokesperson raised a question whether is it a mere coincidence that the alleged perpetrators of the Pahalgam Attack were killed at the start of the Lok Sabha debate<\/p>\n<p>He said Pakistan also reiterates its unequivocal rejection of the ceaseless Indian statements on establishing a &#8220;new normal&#8221; in bilateral relations.<\/p>\n<p>FO\u2019s spokesperson said, as Pakistan has already shown through its resolute actions in May this year, Islamabad will forcefully counter any future aggression.<\/p>\n<p>He said for Pakistan, the only &#8220;normal&#8221; in bilateral relations is respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, and adherence to the principles and purposes of the United Nations Charter.<\/p>\n<p>He further said that the Indian narrative of an alleged &#8220;nuclear blackmail&#8221; by Pakistan is a misleading and self-serving construct, and an attempt to veil its own escalatory impulses while shifting blame onto Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p>Shafqat Ali Khan said it is well known that Pakistan deterred India through its conventional capabilities, affirming that discipline and restraint remain its guiding principles.<\/p>\n<p>He said Pakistan also wishes to register its disapproval of the Indian leaders&#8217; misplaced assertions regarding the Indus Waters Treaty.<\/p>\n<p>He said India&#8217;s decision to hold the Treaty in abeyance shows its blatant disregard for the sanctity of international treaties, and strikes at a fundamental pillar of regional cooperation. Instead of taking pride in a unilateral and illegal move, the Spokesperson said India must immediately fulfil its Treaty obligations.<\/p>\n<p>Shafqat Ali Khan said India&#8217;s continued reliance on disinformation, jingoism, and chest-thumping risks destabilising South Asia. However, as a responsible country, Pakistan remains committed to peace, regional stability, and a meaningful dialogue for resolution of all outstanding issues, including the core dispute of Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has categorically rejected the baseless assertions and provocative claims made by the Indian leaders during the Lok Sabha debate on the so-called &#8220;Operation Sindoor.&#8221; Responding to media queries pertaining to the debate in the Indian Parliament on the so-called &#8220;Operation Sindoor&#8221;, foreign office spokesperson Shafqat Ali Khan said the statements by Indian leaders [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":36849,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33,31,32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-37696","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-india","category-news","category-pakistan"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37696","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37696"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37696\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":37697,"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37696\/revisions\/37697"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/36849"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=37696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vosa.tv\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=37696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
