“Everything off the table, if Afghan Taliban do not cooperate on TTP” Pakistan’s special representative on Afghanistan Ambassador Sadiq Khan @AmbassadorSadiq while speaking at a seminar organised by @IPRI_Pak said that TTP is a big challenge for us, it cannot be tolerated, because our young boys are being martyred every day, it has become so common in certain areas. It would be criminal to ignore that. Afghanistan has to work with us on this, if they are not working with us then all deals are off, and there can be no further progress on anything. Pakistan can be very helpful to Afghanistan, if we could stop terrorism coming from the other side of the border. I will be honest and pragmatic about it, we have an issue in Pakistan, that is one part. But people coming from Afghanistan is also an issue that has to be stopped. The solution is not necessarily killing people, the solution is not necessarily arresting people and handing them over to Pakistan. The solution is restraining it, the solution is containing them on which I think no one should have any objection.
