Islamabad, Sep. 11 (ANI): Pakistan’s Information and Broadcasting Minister Qamar Zaman Kaira has clarified that Asif Ali Zardari Government is perusing its own foreign policies and not those formulated by Pervez Musharraf.
Kaira pointed out that peace in South Asia was not possible without achieving stability in Afghanistan.
The political process should be continued in Afghanistan and removal of foreign forces from Afghanistan would not ensure stability, the Daily Times quoted him, as saying.
Kaira added that Pakistan is the victim of terrorism, and the government would continue to take action against all those who challenge its writ.
Denying any activity by US private security firm Blackwater in Pakistan, he said the PPP would never compromise on issues of national security.
On the question of by-election in Rawalpindi, Kaira said the provincial government had requested the federal government to postpone the election due to the poor law and order situation of the region. (ANI)
