According to Geo News, Pakistan’s foreign minister, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, stated on Saturday that the government had chosen to call the US ambassador in response to US President Joe Biden’s remarks about Pakistan’s nuclear capability.
Joe Biden described Pakistan as “perhaps one of the most dangerous nations in the world: Pakistan.” Nuclear weapons with no cohesiveness.”
Joe Biden made the remarks on Friday at a Democratic congressional campaign committee reception when discussing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the US ties with other countries.
“We know how to protect our nuclear arsenal,” Bilawal Bhutto was quoted as saying by Geo News.
“Pakistan is adamant on maintaining its integrity and safety.” If issues are to be raised, they should be about Indian nuclear weapons, according to the report.
Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan blamed Shehbaz Sharif for Joe Biden’s statement, claiming it demonstrated the government’s absolute failure in foreign policy. Following Biden’s statements, the former prime minister tweeted that the current administration had shattered all records for stupidity.
In response to Joe Biden’s comments about Pakistan’s nuclear program, the former prime minister stated, “….having been PM, I know we have one of the most secure nuclear command and control systems.”
