Islamabad : Pakistan today dismissed India’s call to effectively secure its nuclear assets as “self serving,” and said New Delhi should instead work with it on establishing a “regional strategic restraint regime”.
Following a suicide attack yesterday outside the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex at Kamra, considered a base for some of the country’s strategic weapons, Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao had said that India hoped the Pakistan government would “continue to take steps to effectively secure their nuclear assets”.
Responding to a question on Rao’s comments, Foreign Office spokesman Abdul Basit today said, “Such remarks are evidently self-serving and integral to India’s efforts to seek unilateral advantage at the cost of regional strategic stability by its feverish militarisation and working on dangerous military doctrines.
