Islamabad, July 2 (TIWN) In a bold decision, Pakistan has decided and announced that it will not provide any bases on its soil to the US to operate from, after its troops exit Afghanistan.
During the all-important meeting, the members were informed that US seemed to be deliberately leaving a "mismanaged and unstable" Afghanistan as it wanted to undermine China, Pakistan and the region.
However, Pakistan has decided that it is ready to face any consequences of its decision to not provide any bases to the US.
"Pakistan is not going to give military bases to the US; we are not going to fight their proxy war. Nearly 70,000 people were martyred since the US did it the first time," said a member of the parliament, who was present during the briefing.
