Pakistan Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa said on Friday that prevalence of peace in Pakistan and Aghanistan share an interlinked nexus and anything that tries to threaten that connection, should be defeated.
This statement came when General Bajwa was talking to a 15-member Afghan media delegation who met him during a visit to the GHQ, according to a statement by the Army.
General Bajwa said the media can act as a bridge to create a conducive environment for promoting cultural and social as well as people-to-people engagement between the two countries.
바카라It is the responsibility of the media and people to identify and defeat the spoilers of peace. Peace in Afghanistan is Pakistan바카라s earnest desire because peace of the two countries is interlinked,바카라 he said.
He went on to add that the "spoilers" will not be allowed to derail the peace process.
Referring to Pakistan바카라s comprehensive border management regime, he said security of borders is in the best interest of the two countries.
Talking about the benefits of regional connectivity for the two countries, he highlighted the importance of restoration of peace in Afghanistan for sustainable development of the region.
Appreciating Pak-Afghan Youth Forum바카라s initiative for organising the journalists바카라 visit, Bajwa hoped for more frequent exchange of visits in future.
He said Pak-Afghan youth is the hope for future peace and progress of the region.
Since the announcement of the withdrawal of US forces by August 31, violence has been rising in Afghanistan and efforts to broker a peace settlement between the Afghan government and insurgent Taliban have slowed.
