Afghanistan Rubbishes Pak Claim On ‘India Sponsoring Terror’

Kabul: The Afghan government on Sunday rejected Pakistan’s claims that India was using Afghanistan to sponsor terror attacks against Pakistan as baseless.

The Afghan foreign ministry said Afghanistan has been the main victim of terrorism in the world and the top priority for the country’s foreign policy is to become the centre of cooperation for fighting terrorism, Tolo News reported.

“We are committed to the policy of combating all forms of terrorism in the world without any discrimination. We will never allow Afghan soil to be used for disruptive activities against other countries,” the ministry said in a statement.

The statement came a day after Pakistan’s military spokesman Major-general Babar Iftikhar claimed that they have “verifiable evidence of terrorist funding by India”.

He claimed that “Indian diplomats in Afghanistan have been regularly supervising various terrorist activities”.

Also, Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi said that they will present evidence to the UN and other international bodies that India was sponsoring terrorism against Pakistan.
