NEW YORK: Afghanistan’s UN Ambassador, Mahmoud Saikal said that there is clarity among the UN Security Council members on the existence of terrorist safe havens inside Pakistan.
In an indirect reference to Pakistan, he said his government has provided evidences to the UNSC about violations of its resolution by “a country in the region”. In an interview to Indian media, the envoy said he has stressed the need for action against “the country”, as mandated by the UNSC resolutions.
He said there is unanimity more than ever and clarity among UNSC members about the presence of terrorist safe havens in Pakistan, days after an ambassadorial-level of delegation of the 15-member powerful body returned from a trip to Kabul.
Noting that the issue has come to the attention of the UNSC more than ever, the ambassador said some of the council members were now openly talking about it.
He said Pakistan has been “unsuccessfully trying to change the narrative” in the past couple of years, but there are no takers for arguments coming from Pakistan’s diplomats, either at the UN or other international forums.
