Author: Online

ISLAMABAD: National Security Adviser Nasir Janjua, a retired lieutenant general of the Pakistan Army, has said that Pakistan is a peace-loving country and it wants peace and stability in Afghanistan.

Addressing a ceremony here on Tuesday, he said that Pakistan hosted three million Afghan refugees despite adverse circumstances. He said that Pakistanis provided them shelter in their homes with dignity and respect and extended hospitality to them. He said that many of the Afghan refugees were being used in acts of terrorism and smuggling in Pakistan.

He said that Pakistani armed forces and the nation rendered unprecedented sacrifices for the sake of peace, but the world was under the impression that Pakistan was playing a double game in Afghanistan. He dispelled this impression.
