ISLAMABAD,:Pakistan on Friday unequivocally condemning the Indian illegal acts of violating its sovereignty, said that India’s reckless conduct had brought two nuclear-armed states closer to a major conflict, and that the country’s jingoism and war hysteria should be a source of serious concern for the world.“Indian actions were a flagrant violation of the UN Charter, international law, and established norms governing the inter-state relations. It is most unfortunate that India’s reckless conduct has brought the two nuclear-armed states closer to a major conflict. India’s jingoism and war hysteria should be a source of serious concern for the world,” Foreign Office spokesperson Shafqat Ali Khan said at his weekly press briefing.He said that India had been violating Pakistan’s sovereignty since May 7 and that Indian strikes against Pakistan had endangered the regional peace and stability.

He said that being a home to over one-fifth of the world population, South Asia could ill-afford the irresponsible actions like the ones being carried out by India.
He said that in the wake of Pahalgam attack, the Indian leadership had once again used the bogey of terrorism to advance its sham narrative of victimhood, jeopardizing regional peace. We once again reject any attempt to link the Pahalgam Attack with Pakistan, he added.He said that international organizations like the United Nations and OIC had called for exercise of restraint during the last two weeks to which India did not pay heed.Referring to the Indian foreign secretary’s accusations against Pakistan at a special press briefing, the spokesperson said that alleging Pakistan of escalating the situation through the Pahalgam attack was “totally absurd” as India could not yet produce any credible and verifiable evidence of Pakistan’s involvement.“The Pakistani forces did not attack Pahalgam but the Indian forces did attack multiple locations in Pakistan. Accordingly, Pakistan reserves the right to take all appropriate measures in its self-defence.”He said Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif proposed a transparent and independent probe into Pahalgam Attack through neutral investigators but India chose the path of belligerence and aggression.“Can any country in the world be allowed to attack another country on the basis of a few social media posts? India is attempting to act as a judge, jury and executioner,” he remarked.
