Pakistan’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Maleeha Lodhi has said on Wednesday that Pakistan nuclear programme cannot be limited.
Addressing a joint press conference with Foreign Secretary Aizaz Chaudhry, Maleeha Lodhi said that US Secretary of State John Kerry had urged Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to limit Pakistan’s atomic programme. However, she said that it had been conveyed to the US Secretary of State that the proposals which were expected from Pakistan should also be implemented by India.
“Pakistan’s nuclear programme cannot be limited,” she said. “The world should first put an end to nuclear activities undertaken by India,” she added.
Speaking on the occasion, Aizaz Chaudhry said that the world acknowledges efforts and sacrifices rendered by Pakistan in the fight against terrorism. He further said that no other state had acted against terrorism as much as Pakistan had.
The Foreign Office Secretary and envoy to the UNO Lodhi held a joint press briefing yesterday to report on Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s meetings with leaders of the world ahead of the UNGA speech.
The premier met with the fresh British PM, Theresa May, Muhammad bin Nayef, crown prince of Saudi Arabia, premier of New Zealand among others.
Nawaz Sharif also convened a meeting with Secretary of the State, John Kerry.
Well, they do have a point. Why only few countries in the world should have nuclear weapons
