At the United Nations, Pakistan has called on the international community to take greater knowledge of the growing terrorist threat that Tehrik-in-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), The Majeed Brigade and Da’ish, warn that the threat extends beyond Afghanistan and Pakistan that affects the entire region and beyond.
In his statement on the UN Security Council’s briefing on “threats to international peace and security caused by terrorist acts,” Pakistan’s permanent representative of the UN, Munir Akram, called on the world to take decisive action against the expanding terrorism crisis.
He also rejected all claims that Da’ish re -recruiting took place in Pakistan, confirming that over two dozen terrorist groups operate inside Afghanistan, with the country serving as a “main hub” for da’ish recruiting and relief, as Confirmed by UN Monitoring Team’s recent report.
Akram emphasized that Pakistan, who has successfully run groups such as al-Qaeda within its borders, continues to confront threats from TTP, da’ish and majed brigade operating from safe ending up the border.
He called for greater international attention to these groups and emphasized that their presence and activities are well documented in UN reports and should be urgently urgent.
Pakistan’s ambassador also condemned terrorism in all its forms and repeated the country’s significant role in the global terrorist fighting.
He reflected on the heavy costs that Pakistan has carried in his fight against terrorism with the loss of over 80,000 innocent life and significant damage to its economy.
