Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has said that the chances of conflict with India were increasing with the passage of time despite efforts by different countries to defuse the tensions between the two neighbours.
According to report by PTI, “Chances (of conflict) are increasing with the passage of time; they are not decreasing. Though many countries have been trying to avert the situation,” he said.
Asif also vowed to give a suitable response to India in case of any attack on Pakistan but refused to provide the details of the Pakistani response.
“If there is a violation by India, we will respond and the nature of our response will be determined by the Indian action,” he said. “There should be no doubt about our response.”
He expressed his desire that ‘India will see sense’ but added that there was no evidence on ground because there was no decrease in the escalation.
Replying to a question, he said may God help to avert the situation of conflict.
