ISLAMABAD: Federal Defence Minister Khawaja Asif on Monday criticised Western policies of staying aloof and not supporting the war against terror, remarking that it would only give rise to terrorism.
Participating in a panel discussion on countering extremism and terrorism at the Munich Security Conference 2017 he said ninety percent of terrorism victims are Muslims.
Khawaja Asif said Pakistan is in partnership with the whole world to wipe out the menace of terrorism.
