On August 17, Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi had said the Pakistani nation was ready to respond to any Indian false flag operation.
Addressing media in Islamabad, Shah Mehmood Qureshi had said Pakistan held the right to respond to any aggression.
“India could stage a Pulwama-like drama once again. This is a long battle which we have to fight at every front. Kashmir desk is being established at every important embassy of Pakistan in the world and a Kashmir cell will be created at the Foreign Office as well to spread awareness on this issue,” he had said.
He had termed the UN Security Council meeting, held a day earlier, as encouraging. “It is such a major development that people cannot gauge it at the moment. The meeting was held despite India’s opposition to it.”
FM Qureshi had said Pakistan had all the options available to contact any institution if and when need be. He warned that as soon as the curfew would be lifted in Kashmir, India could face a retaliation.
