\nTalking to private news channel on Saturday, DG ISPR said that our armed forces are ready to resist enemies.
\nPakistan has left no stone to help Afghan peace process, but we are not the guarantors of peace in Afghanistan. All the Afghan respondents will have to decide their future course, the military spokesperson said.
\nBabar Iftikhar said that we have created a strategy to combat future hazards and dangers, adding that our soil will never be used against any other nation.
\n\u201cWe are keeping a close eye at ever-changing situation of the region. We have taken all the precautionary measure to nullify hazards that will take place after US withdrawal from Afghanistan\u201d, the military spokesman said.
\nTalking about the impacts of turmoil in Afghanistan, he said that chaos and instability in the neighboring country will have adverse effects on Pakistan.
\n\u201cSituation in Afghanistan can create security challenges for Pakistan. Re-activity of sleeper cells of terrorists in Pakistan and a unification of banned terrorist organizations remain top threats,\u201d the ISPR Major General said.

\nHe said that international bodies were accepting Pakistan\u2019s role to curb terrorism from the region and Pakistan\u2019s fight against terror.
\nOur nation has given immense sacrifices during this war and our economy saw huge losses. Now we have wiped out terrorism and its masterminds from our soil, he said.
\nTo a question related to India\u2019s increasing role in Afghanistan, DG ISPR replied that their [India\u2019s] role was increased in Afghanistan which was used to harm Pakistan.
