Government Spokesperson Accuses PTI of Anti-Pakistan Activities

In a recent development, the Government's Spokesperson on Legal Affairs has accused the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) of engaging in activities detrimental to Pakistan's interests. The PTI's opposition to a National Assembly resolution denouncing US interference has sparked controversy, with allegations of the party promoting a false anti-US narrative. It is claimed that the PTI resorted to digital terrorism and hired lobbying firms in the US to lobby against Pakistan, raising concerns about external interference in the country's affairs.

Emphasizing the importance of safeguarding Pakistan's sovereignty, a Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) lawmaker highlighted that a sovereign state cannot tolerate external meddling in its internal matters. While Pakistan seeks a strong partnership with the US, it firmly rejects any form of interference in its domestic affairs.

The National Assembly found itself embroiled in a heated debate when the Defence Minister alleged that terrorists from Afghanistan were launching attacks in Pakistan. This led to discussions on potential retaliatory measures, which faced opposition from the PTI, resulting in accusations of supporting terrorists. The decision to allow members of the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) to resettle in Pakistan was also cited as a contributing factor to the rise in terrorism within the country.

The ongoing debate in the National Assembly underscores the delicate balance between protecting Pakistan's sovereignty and fostering international partnerships. As the country navigates through these challenges, it is crucial to address concerns of external interference while also addressing internal security threats effectively. The need for a comprehensive approach to national security remains paramount in ensuring a stable and prosperous future for Pakistan.
