Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, during his meeting with Turkiye Ambassador Dr Irfan Neziroglu in Islamabad on Saturday, said that Pakistan's response was "responsible and measured to India's provocative actions" after the Pahalgam terror attack , which has claimed the lives of 26, including a Nepalese tourist, as reported by Radio Pakistan.
The prime minister emphasised that "despite India's provocative actions following the Pahalgam incident, Pakistan's response was responsible and measured".
Reiterating Pakistan's stance against terrorism, he stated that the nation has consistently opposed all forms of terrorist activities.
The prime minister claimed that India has "failed to share any evidence and is falsely trying to link Pakistan to the Pahalgam attack".
He further alleged that India has "yet to respond to Pakistan's offer to have a credible, transparent and neutral international investigation to ascertain the facts behind the Pahalgam incident".
Sharif expressed Pakistan's willingness to fully participate in such an investigation and welcomed Turkiye's potential involvement.
The relationship between India and Pakistan deteriorated after the Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir.
The mid-day attack on April 22 is the deadliest since the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019, targeted tourists relaxing in the lush meadows of Baisaran, about 7 km from Pahalgam town. Survivors allege the attackers, believed to be six foreign terrorists, selectively targeted men after asking their religion and demanding they recite Islamic verses.
