No One Can Stop Us If Tensions Escalate: Pakistan’s Defense Minister

International Desk

Tensions between nuclear-armed neighbors India and Pakistan have reached a peak following a militant attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, resulting in fatalities. In this context, Pakistan’s Defense Minister Khawaja Asif has issued a warning, stating that if India escalates tensions, no one will be able to stop Pakistan.

According to a report by Pakistan’s Geo News on Sunday, April 27, Asif said, “The entire nation of Pakistan stands united behind the armed forces. If India escalates tensions, we will respond to Prime Minister Modi’s government just as we did after the Pulwama incident.”

Asif claimed that the Pakistani armed forces are fully backed by the nation and warned of a strong military response to any aggression.

He further emphasized that a conflict between two nuclear-armed states poses significant threats to both regional and global peace. Asif stated that the matter has been brought to the attention of the international community, which may investigate the Pahalgam incident.

Warning India, Asif added, “If tensions escalate, no one will be able to stop us. If Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi chooses the path of provocation, we will pursue him all the way.”

Asif also accused Modi of repeating the same strategies used during Pulwama, describing them as false propaganda. However, he stressed that Pakistan is strong enough to respond effectively.
