ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has expressed deep concern over the United States plan to transfer modern military technologies to India on Friday, saying it could create military imbalance in the region and damage strategic stability.
Addressing a weekly press briefing, Foreign Office spokesman Shafqat Ali Khan called on international partners to adopt a comprehensive and objective view of peace and security issues in South Asia and refrain from confirming the positions. Unilateral and divorced by ground facts.
The remarks came a day after President Donald Trump’s saying, when the United States increased military sales to India, which began in 2025, and eventually the F -35 fighter jets will be provided.
Addressing a joint news conference with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Trump said, “We will increase India’s military sales by many billion dollars. Washington.
Trump did not provide a timeline, but it takes years to work, especially for advanced technology, such as foreign military sales, especially the stealthy F-35 jet.
India has agreed to buy more than $ 20 billion US defense products since 2008. Last year, India agreed to buy 31 MQ 9bc Guardian and Sky Guardian drones after a talk that lasted for more than six years.
Today, during a weekly pressure, an FO spokesman called Pakistan’s specific reference “one-sided, misleading and diplomatic principles” in a joint statement from India-US.
Shafqat Ali said, “In a joint statement by Indo -US, Pakistan cannot cover the sponsorship of India’s terrorism, rebellion and in the region and beyond and beyond the sponsorship.”
The joint statement, accusing Pakistan of being involved in the 2008 Mumbai attacks, came a day ago after Trump and Modi’s meeting in the White House.
“Leaders [Modi and Trump] Pakistan has been demanded to bring 26/11 Mumbai criminals and Pathanot attacks quickly and ensure that its area has not been used to carry out terrorist attacks.
In response to the allegations, a FO spokesman said that Pakistan’s reference was included despite counter -terrorism cooperation with the United States.
He said that in such references, the strong reality of India could not pay international attention because of being a safe haven for those who committed hate crimes against Muslims and other minorities.
“The joint statement fails to remove India’s non -compliance with the UN Security Council resolutions, which is an important source of tension and instability in the region, nor is it an Indian occupied in Jammu and Kashmir illegally. Regrettably, it is akin to abandoning international responsibility, “he gave remarks.
The spokesperson reaffirmed Pakistan’s commitment to promote peace and stability and to cooperate in regional and global efforts to bring the war on terror to its logical end.
The Mumbai attacks of 2008 had approved the extradition of the United States’
President Donald Trump said at a press conference with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday that the United States has approved the extradition of a suspect in the 2008 militant attacks in the Indian financial capital Mumbai.
Three -day attacks on hotels, a train station and a Jewish center that killed 166 people began on November 26, 2008. India claims that Lashkar -e -Taiba, a Pakistan -based group, planned the attacks. The government of Pakistan refuses to join it.
“I am glad to declare that my administration has approved the extradition of one of the very bad people in the world and the extravagance of the bad people, who to face justice in India 2008 Mumbai terror. The surrounding attack is so going back to India to face justice, “Trump told reporters at the White House.
Trump did not name the individual at the press conference, but later in a joint statement between the two sides, the man was identified as Tahwar Rana, a Pakistani Chicago businessman and a Canadian citizen.
Last month, the US Supreme Court rejected Rana’s review petition against his extradition. Earlier, Rana was sentenced to a US federal jail, which led to Lashkar -e -Taiba.
Trump was also asked at a press conference on Sikh separatists in the United States, which India calls for security threats. Sikh separatists demand an independent homeland, known as the Constitution, should be erected from India.
Trump did not answer the question directly but said that India and the United States had worked on the crime together.
