Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto said on Thursday that the Afghan Taliban have been told that the banned TTP is Pakistan\u2019s red line.
\nBilawal Bhutto while talking to the media at the Pakistani embassy in Washington said that if we find out that the Taliban is not stopping the TTP, we will not ignore it.
\nExpressing his concern over the deteriorating law and order situation in the country due to rising TTP attacks from Afghan soil, Bilawal said if the Taliban carry out operations against the extremists, Pakistan will provide help if needed.
\nMr Bhutto-Zardari made a similar observation in his talk at the Atlantic Council, urging world powers to work with Afghanistan\u2019s de facto rulers to stabilise the region.
\nThe foreign minister, however, stressed the need to \u201cimpress on our neighbours, particularly Afghanistan\u201d that they have to demonstrate the will and the capacity to take on the TTP or other groups functioning from there.
\nIn response to a question, the foreign minister said that the building owned by Pakistan in Washington must be sold as the condition of the property is bad.
\nBilawal, when asked about elections in Pakistan, said that polls will be held on time and Imran Khan wants early elections to get help in the rigging.
\nThe foreign minister said that institutions confined themselves to their constitutional roles, but some politicians are spreading hatred and giving the perception of enmity to political differences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
