Pakistan has reaffirmed its commitment to bring to justice the perpetrators, facilitators and instigators of the Bisham terrorist attack that claimed the lives of five Chinese citizens.
In her weekly news briefing in Islamabad today, Foreign Office Spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch said that this attack was organized by the enemies of Pakistan-China friendship.
He said that such efforts will not succeed and we will continue to work together to develop CPEC and promote cooperation.
He said that Pakistan will not allow any police force to damage the relationship between the two countries.
The Speaker said that Pakistan and China are close friends and Iron brothers. He said that the two countries together will act firmly against these elements and defeat them.
Mumtaz Zahra Baloch said that Pakistan will continue to work with the Chinese brothers to ensure the safety and security of Chinese nationals, projects and institutions in Pakistan. He said that Pakistan has further enhanced the security of Chinese nationals.
Responding to a question, the Speaker said that Pakistan-India trade relations were non-existent since 2019 when India took illegal steps in the illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir. He said as of now, there is no change in Pakistan’s position on it.
Mumtaz Zahra Baloch pointed out that the Indian occupation authorities are about to auction some blocks of lithium resources found in illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
There are concerns that corporations from outside the region will get the contracts to exploit this valuable resource that belongs to the Kashmiri people.
He said that these measures by the occupation authorities to deprive Kashmiris of their right to the natural resources are illegal and exploitative.
He called on India to abandon such exploitative plans and respect the right of the Kashmiris to their own land and natural resources.
Mumtaz Zahra Baloch expressed concerns about Israel’s continued aggression in Gaza regardless of the UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire.
The Speaker said that Israel should be encouraged by its supporters to end the massacre of the Palestinian people, lift the inhumane blockade and allow humanitarian aid to all parts of Gaza.
