Pakistan Will Not Take Sides In Any Wars: Asif

Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif said on Monday that Pakistan will no longer take sides in another country’s war, Geo News reported.

He believes that Pakistan only bore losses and gained nothing after allying with the United States during the Cold War, Geo News stated. 

"The US has not threatened or put sanctions on any other country as it has on Pakistan in the last 40 to 50 years,” he said, adding “we have never been treated as an ally.”

 “We are fighting the war against terrorism and will no longer pick sides in any conflict. In case of another cold war, Pakistan will not side with any country,” he said.

According to Geo News he speculated that there is a possibility of another cold war between Russia and US, given the current tensions between the two countries.

On the presence of Daesh in Afghanistan, Asif said the terrorist group has not been wiped out but has only changed its address.

He said Pakistan did not take part in the Yemen war, and that it wants Iran and Saudi Arabia to end their differences.
