While talking to participants, COAS spoke on various challenges to national security and response measures. COAS said that national cohesion and unified response to guard and promote Pakistan’s national interests is imperative for progress.
Pakistan has faced many challenges but came out stronger every time. Our fight against terrorism is one such example which only succeeded due to whole of the nation approach, COAS reiterated. Peace and stability can only be achieved if rule of law and state’s writ is established, COAS emphasised.
