Pakistan's defence minister made a striking admission regarding their involvement with terrorist groups, stating "We have been doing this dirty work for United States for 3 decades," when questioned about Pakistan's role.
During a widely circulated interview with Sky News presenter Yalda Hakim, she directly questioned him about Pakistan's historical involvement in supporting terrorist organisations.
Khwaja Asif responded by acknowledging, "We have been doing this dirty work for the United States for about 3 decades... and the west, including Britain...That was a mistake, and we suffered for that, and that is why you are saying this to me. If we had not joined the war against the Soviet Union and later on the war after 9/11, Pakistan's track record was unimpeachable."
In the same interview, the defence minister issued a concerning statement about the possibility of full-scale conflict with India.
After the Pahalgam attack claiming 26 lives, the government implemented several diplomatic responses, including shutting down the Attari ICP, cancelling the SVES for Pakistani nationals with a 40-hour departure notice, and reducing diplomatic staff at both High Commissions.
The government also suspended the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty following the Pahalgam incident.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has pledged severe consequences for both the attackers and conspirators. He emphasised that the time had arrived to eliminate remaining terrorist strongholds, stating that 140 crore Indians' determination would defeat the perpetrators of terror.
