ISLAMABAD -UNS: Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry has issued a stern warning that Pakistan will respond decisively and forcefully to any ceasefire violation by India.
In an interview with a British TV channel, the military spokesperson stated that any incursion or challenge to Pakistan’s sovereignty would provoke a harsh and immediate reaction. “Our response to any aggression threatening our territory or integrity will be severe,” he asserted.
Only days after the ceasefire understanding was reached, Gen Ahmed Sharif cautioned that any military confrontation between the nuclear-armed neighbours could result in devastating consequences for both.
“If India imagines there’s room for limited warfare with Pakistan, it’s inviting mutual destruction,” he added.
Highlighting the gravity of nuclear risk, he noted that major global powers, including the United States, recognise the danger posed by any escalation.
Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has expressed interest in mediating the long-standing Kashmir issue. However, India has traditionally opposed external mediation and has not formally agreed to negotiations under the truce terms.
