Pakistan accuses US of Sliding with India; Nuclear war could arise

Pakistan, Dec 19: After US praising India and asking Pakistan to take strict action against terror outfits, Pakistan has accused US of sliding with India.

Pakistan's National Security Advisor Nasser Khan Janjua also said that a possible nuclear war could arise in South Asia due to the delicate security situation.

"The stability of the South Asian region hangs in a delicate balance, and the possibility of nuclear war cannot be ruled out," Janjua was quoted by the Pakistani media as saying at a seminar in Islamabad on Monday.

"India has been stockpiling a range of dangerous weapons as it threatens Pakistan continuously of conventional warfare," he said in a seminar on the "National Security Policy – Vision for Pakistan".

The seminar was organised by the Center for Global & Strategic Studies (CGSS).

"India is being given priority over Pakistan in Afghanistan, something that will shape the political and strategic dynamics of the war-torn country" he added.
