RAWALPINDI: Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa on Friday reiterated that Pakistan had undertaken operations against terrorists of all hue and colour and there were no safe havens inside Pakistan which were being used against Afghanistan.
According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the army chief, during a meeting with a nine-member Afghan media delegation at the General Headquarters (GHQ), said that Afghanistan was Pakistan's brotherly neighbour. General Bajwa said that terrorists were common enemies of Pakistan and Afghanistan and a trust-based coordinated response was required against them rather than blame game. He said media could play a vital role in mitigating the negativity created by inimical forces.
Emphasising the need for an effective border management along the Pak-Afghan border, he said Pakistan had taken measures on its side of the border, including fencing and establishment of new border forts and posts.
The Afghan media delegation thanked the army chief for his time and candid discussion. They acknowledged that such interactions were very useful to understand each other and added that they were carrying back home a facts-based positivity through this tour. The delegation is on a week-long visit to Pakistan in coordination with the ISPR.
