The world had put pressure on us: PAK Minister

There is no threat to Pakistan while we are there: Ahsan Iqbal
On opposition party’s protest, he said, ‘There is no need to teach us about the defense and integrity of Pakistan. We are the protectors of Pakistan’s independence and sovereignty. He stressed that there can be no threat to the integrity and sovereignty of Pakistan with PML-N (Shahbaz Sharif’s party) in power.
He said, ‘Muslim countries have taken an initiative to stop the bloodshed in Palestine. The opposition is refusing to accept peace for the people of Palestine. If the government had decided not to join the peace board, opposition members would have alleged that Pakistan was not given any importance, it was isolated.
