Defence Minister Khawaja Asif said Pakistan remained committed to peace and regional stability, but warned his Indian counterpart that the country was fully prepared to defend its sovereignty with a swift and decisive response to any threat.
His remarks came in response to a recent statement by India’s Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, who cautioned Pakistan against any “misadventure” in the backdrop of the ongoing Middle East conflict, according to Indian media reports.
In a post on X, Asif warned his Indian counterpart, saying: “Illusion of space for war between two nuclear states is inconceivable and would have drastic consequences.”
