Former ISI chief lt gen (retd) Hameed Gul has said that the time has come
when the government should tell the US clearly that it should not try
to take revenge of failure in Afghanistan from Pakistan, adding that
Pakistan Air Force had put its defence system on red alert on Sunday
night due to US flights on Pak-Afghan border.
General Hameed Gul said that recent incidents clarify that the
Pak-US relations cannot remain at that level where were in Musharraf
era, adding that every leader of Pakistan says that we don not accept
America as our Master, and this is the voice of whole nation.
He said that it is time to say US that we are not like Cambodia, we
are a nuclear state. “It is time to say that if you would do this than
we response in this way,” he added.
Hameed Gul said that the Haqqani network is a pretext, which has two
or three thousand fighters and they are working as subordinate of the
Taliban, adding that the main target of America is Pakistan.
He said that Musharraf committed wrong with country, he gave binding
hands to United States without any written agreement and are facing the
consequences of decisions of Musharraf.
Hameed Gul said that Pakistan Air Force alerted its defence system
due to flights of US fighter planes near border on Sunday night and
this event was not reported in media. He said that the visit of Chinese
vice prime minister scheduled to be start today (Monday) and meeting of
Corps commanders is a signal which says that the civil and military
leadership has common understanding regarding the threats faced by the
country.
If today we have decided to answer America than it is a right decision and should stand with this decision, Gul added. SANA
