Anti-US agitation in PAK
Pakistan's radical religious party Jamaat-e-Islami has launched a movement demanding the removal of the US ambassador from the country. Party chief Siraj-ul-Haq said that US President Joe Biden has insulted us by calling Pakistan the most dangerous country in the world, so US Ambassador to Pakistan Donald Bloom should be expelled from the country immediately.
Last year, Tehreek-e-Labaiq (TLP) demanded the expulsion of the French ambassador from the country over a controversial religious cartoon in France. 8 policemen were martyred in this violence.
Pakistan is not a servant of America
Jamaat-e-Islami chief Siraj-ul-Haq said on Monday – What America is finally proud of. Pakistan is a free country and we Pakistanis are not its servants. I appeal to the former and present rulers of the country to openly oppose this act of the US President under any circumstances. The US ambassador to our country should be expelled immediately.
Haque also appealed to former Prime Minister Imran Khan. Said- Imran always opposes America. The government sitting in Islamabad should also take a tough stand and expel the American from the country.
Why did Pakistan protest?
• US President Joe Biden attended an event last week. During this he made very strong comments about Pakistan. Said - Pakistan is the most dangerous country in this world. It can be more dangerous, because it has no nuclear weapons and no defense system.
• Biden's comments are drawing strong opposition. As pressure mounted on the Shahbaz Sharif government, they summoned the US ambassador and objected to Biden's statement. However, there is no clarification from the US yet.
• Whatever the US President has said about our country is wrong. We have kept our nuclear power very conservative for 10 years. Pakistan is a very responsible country.
There were also demonstrations against France
Two years ago there were protests against France in Pakistan. When President Emmanuel Macron endorsed a controversial cartoon published in his country. Many Muslim countries, including Pakistan, started opposing France. These countries also boycotted French products.
Pakistan protested the most. Here a radical Islamic religious leader named Saad Hussain Rizvi opened a front to expel the French diplomat from the country.
Thousands of supporters of Rizvi's Tehreek-e-Labaik Party (TLP) Pakistan started street protests, killing 8 policemen. Importantly, there is no French ambassador in Pakistan.
