Space for war between two nuclear states inconceivable, Asif reminds Indian counterpart - Pakistan

Khawaja Asif, Pakistan's Defence Minister, responded to Rajnath Singh, his Indian counterpart, who warned against any "misadventure" from Pakistan. Asif criticized the rhetoric as a sign of "strategic anxiety" and accused India of fabricating crises for political gain. He cited the Pahalgam incident last year, where India falsely blamed Pakistan for an attack, leading to a brief escalation between the two countries. Asif asserted that Pakistan's response would be swift and decisive while emphasizing its commitment to peace.
