Pakistan calls on the UN to hold "sponsors of cross-border terrorism" accountable
Baghdad/NINA/ — Pakistan called on the United Nations this Thursday to take more effective measures to combat cross-border terrorism and to hold accountable those who fund and arm militant groups. It also warned against using counter-terrorism as a pretext for carrying out extrajudicial killings beyond national borders or violating the sovereignty of states.
Muhammad Jawad Ajmal, an advisor to the Pakistani mission to the United Nations, stated that his country has lost more than 4,700 people to terrorism over the past three years. He emphasized the "necessity of dismantling the militant networks that threaten the security of countries neighboring Afghanistan."
He further stressed the "need to distinguish between terrorism and the legitimate right of peoples living under occupation to self-determination," and called for "ensuring respect for international law and human rights within the framework of counter-terrorism efforts." /End
