ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister’s Advisor on Foreign Affairs and National Security Sartaj Aziz has called upon the international community and United Nations to take notice of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s statement.
During an address in Dhaka the Indian prime minister had acknowledged his country’s interference in the 1971 war.
Sartaj Aziz addressing the Senate on Wednesday said the people of Pakistan and Bangladesh were bound by strong bonds.
He added that India was not eligible for a permanent seat on the UN Security Council.
“Such statements not only vitiate the atmosphere but put a question mark on India’s sincerity to establish good neighbourly relationship with Pakistan”.
Aziz stressed that Pakistan wanted to have good relations with all its neighbouring countries.
On Tuesday, Pakistan’s Foreign Office also took note of the Indian prime minister’s statement. Foreign Office spokesperson Qazi M. Khalilullah called on the international community to take notice, emphasising that attempt by India to destabilise relations between Pakistan and Bangladesh would not succeed.
