if America attacks us, we will attack India.. Former Pakistani diplomat Abdul Basit’s harsh comments

 Former Pakistani diplomat Abdul Basit has shown his bluntness. He made controversial remarks that if America attacks their country, they will target India in retaliation. Basit’s remarks that they will bomb the cities of Delhi and Mumbai are causing a stir. Basit, who participated in a discussion program, said that if America attacks them, they will immediately attack India and leave Mumbai and Delhi alone. He then made bold remarks that we will see what happens next.

Abdul Basit said that there would be a similar response even if their country’s nuclear assets were targeted. However, while admitting that this is an almost impossible scenario, it is noteworthy to describe it as ‘strategic madness’. Such irresponsible comments from Basit, who served as Pakistan’s High Commissioner to India from 2014 to 2017, are being widely criticized. Pakistan is currently facing border tensions with Afghanistan. At this time, Indians are angry that Basit is unnecessarily dragging India into a dispute.

Netizens are criticizing that Pakistani officials have become accustomed to threatening India while ignoring their own problems. However, there has been no official response from the Indian government to these comments so far.
