Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that US President Joe Biden did not call him. "I know he is a busy man. He does not depend on phone calls from US but wants normal relations. "They do not know the Haqqani network.
Pakistan suffers a lot from being an ally of the US after 9/11. I would not have allowed the invasion of Afghanistan if I had been the Prime Minister at the time of 9/11. I cannot afford to destroy my country by fighting the war of others. "The very basis of Pakistan-US relations was wrong. In a way, we were mercenaries for them.
Afghanistan is currently at a difficult juncture in its history. The situation in Afghanistan is disturbing and there is a fear of chaos and a major humanitarian crisis. Afghanistan may also face terrorism. No one can predict what will happen in Afghanistan in the future. No one can be controlled and no one can come from outside and give rights to Afghan women.
Instead of controlling Afghanistan, the world should help them. The world should give the Afghan Taliban a respite on human rights issues, the international community should recognize them. In an interview with CNN on Wednesday, Prime Minister Imran Khan said, That Afghanistan is on the path to peace after 40 years.
This could be possible if the Taliban formed a government with all factions. On the contrary, if the other way is taken, a huge humanitarian crisis could arise. If Afghanistan becomes unstable, there is a possibility that Afghanistan could again become a safe haven for terrorists. We hope and pray that May peace prevail here after 40 years. At the moment, however, no predictions can be made about Afghanistan.
He said that Afghan women are strong and given time, Afghan women should be free to work to the best of their ability. Pakistan cannot afford to fight another's war.
He said that initially Pakistan sheltered 5 million Afghan refugees, including members of the Haqqani tribe, many of whom were born in Afghan refugee camps in Pakistan.
The Americans did not know what the Haqqani Network was. The Haqqanis are a Pashtun tribe in Afghanistan. Pakistan lost 150 150 billion in the war on terror. After 9/11, when the United States became an ally, about 50 militant groups were carrying out attacks against Pakistan. Despite all this, the United States also carried out 480 drone strikes on Pakistan.
The Prime Minister vehemently denied the safe havens of terrorists in Pakistan and said that the Pak-Afghan border has been closely monitored by drones.
"I can't afford to destroy my country by fighting others. As prime minister, my responsibility is to serve the people of my country," he said. No matter what happened in Afghanistan, they are all in a state of shock, ”he said. The US CIA will talk to the Afghan Taliban because they have to talk.
"We have a three-pronged threat of terrorism, the first being the terrorists in Afghanistan who can use the territory to attack us, including ISIS, the Baloch terrorists and the Pakistani Taliban."
