Afghanistan’s soil should not be used against Pakistan and the Afghan government should take necessary steps in this regard, the premier added. The prime minister said that the enemy cannot digest the development in the country and therefore they are targeting soft targets. “The enemy wants to sabotage the development process in Pakistan but they will not succeed in their nefarious designs.” To a question, he said that holding of the ECO summit in Pakistan is another success of the country. Nawaz said Pakistan wants peaceful relations with all neighbours, including India. He said we should not even think that Pakistan and India can hatch conspiracies against each other.
