It is increasingly evident that Pakistan’s policies towards Afghanistan continue to raise deep concern. The recent strikes on Kunar, Paktia, and Khost, three major Afghan provinces are not only violations of international law but acts that disregard basic humanitarian principles. Such actions undermine regional stability and inflict unnecessary suffering on innocent people.
For decades, Pakistan’s strategic approach has been shaped by short-term geopolitical calculations, often at the expense of Afghan sovereignty and peace. Its behaviour mirrors a pattern seen in other conflicts where disproportionate force and external interference exacerbate tensions rather than resolve them.
Afghanistan, like any sovereign nation, has the fundamental right to defend its people and its territory. The international community must recognise these realities and ensure that principles of justice, sovereignty, and human dignity are upheld.
