Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has reiterated that the US is seeking to sabotage and damage Pakistan’s nuclear facilities in a bid to undermine its (Pakistan) security and sovereignty and prolong its military presence in the region, Iran’s Fars News Agency reported on Tuesday.
“We have precise information that the US is seeking to sabotage Pakistan’s nuclear facilities in a move to weaken the Pakistani nation and the government to dominate that country,” the news agency quoted Ahmadinejad as saying while addressing a press conference in Tehran.
The Iranian president also underlined that Americans also want to use the UN Security Council and other international bodies and organisations as a leverage to pave the way for their extended military deployment in the region and also to weaken Pakistan’s national sovereignty.
Ahmadinejad’s remarks came nearly two weeks after NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said that security of Pakistan’s nuclear weapons was a matter of concern. “I feel confident that Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal is safe and well protected,” Rasmussen said, adding “but of course it is a matter of concern and we follow the situation closely.”
Senior officials in Islamabad have repeatedly dismissed such concerns, saying Pakistani nukes are in safe hands. Analysts say the US and its Western allies are preparing the grounds for widespread military presence in Pakistan, the news agency reported.
