Our slogan is that if anyone looks at Kabul with hostility,

we will strike Islamabad. If Kabul is made insecure, Islamabad will be insecure.

If Kabul is bombarded, Islamabad will be bombarded.

Eleven members of one family were martyred, have we taken their revenge? In exchange

for one person,

we have killed dozens of their military people and soldiers.

If the war drags on, how prepared are you? If the war lasts for ten years,

we will fight for ten years too and we have no fear at all. For prolonging

the war from Pakistan’s side is the presence of TTP a reasonable justification,

or have they taken on a project from America?

Their fundamental pain is the Durand Line. Why is Pakistan afraid of a stable,

strong, powerful, self- reliant Afghanistan? The government of Afghanistan,

the current system of Afghanistan,

the people of Afghanistan do not want war.

They wanted you to call TTP terrorists? This is an illusion, impossible,

and madness. Did the previous government’s

commando forces also tell you to be prepared?

A special interview with the Minister of National Defense,

Mawlawi Mohammad Yaqoob Mujahid.
