BERLIN: World has not recognised Pakistan’s contribution to the war against terror, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Asim Bajwa told Deutsche Welle Urdu on Wednesday.
“The world had abandoned Pakistan to handle and face the terrorists in the region alone, and Pakistan has completed the task.” He said it was an injustice against Pakistan to suggest that the country did not “do enough” against terrorism.
He also addressed accusations that Zarb-e-Azb military operation did not target the Haqqani network, saying the operation tackled terrorist groups of all hues.
“A soldier in the warzone cannot discriminate among terrorists and who belongs to which group. There were terrorists from the Haqqani network, ETIM, IMU, Al Qaeda and TTP, and we fought against all of them,” he said.
“At that time the global community, including the United States, had admitted that the operation was being carried out across the board and effectively.”
