ISLAMABAD, Mar 2 (APP):President Asif Ali Zardari, Monday, said that the year 2025 marked a turning point for Pakistan, defined by the resounding military victory in Maarka-e-Haq, which decisively repelled external aggression and shattered the myth of regional conventional superiority.
Addressing a joint session of the parliament, he said “By the Grace of Allah, this was not just a military victory; it was an expression of our national resolve in crisis. United as one proud nation, we bravely repulsed India’s aggression and emerged victorious, both militarily and diplomatically. Our decisive and principled response was acknowledged by world capitals, beyond a shadow of any doubt. Let me take this opportunity to say that India must listen to us attentively: Pakistan will continue to give its fullest diplomatic and moral support to the just cause of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.”
The president said that nobody in South Asia would be free and safe until Kashmiris win their freedom from Indian occupation.
Today, he said, trapped in their strategic short-sightedness Indian leaders said that they were preparing for another war.
“As a lifelong advocate for regional peace, I would not recommend it. At the same time, I would also say that any aggressor should prepare for another humiliating defeat. Make no mistake. We are ready for you. My message to them is to move away from war theatres to meaningful negotiating tables because that is the only path for the regional security,” he further asserted.
