ISLAMABAD:
Chief of Army Staff Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir on Wednesday called on President Asif Ali Zardari at Aiwan-e-Sadr and briefed him on the evolving security situation, including Pakistan’s “measured and befitting response” to the Taliban’s aggression.
The president expressed full confidence in the armed forces, praising their “vigilance and professionalism” in defending Pakistan’s borders. “The nation stands united with its military in safeguarding the country’s sovereignty at all costs,” he said.
“President Zardari expressed full confidence in the strength, valour, capacity, and preparedness of Pakistan’s armed forces,” President Secretariat Press Wing said in a press release.
The president also reaffirmed that Pakistan would defend its national sovereignty and territorial integrity at all costs.
The latest flare-up marks one of the most serious confrontations between Pakistan and the Taliban regime since the group’s takeover of Kabul in 2021, underscoring the growing strain in relations between the two neighbours.
