Pakistan has responded to the European Union’s recent comments regarding military courts, firmly reiterating its sovereignty. A Foreign Office spokesperson stated that Pakistan’s judicial system operates in accordance with its constitution and laws, and no external pressure will be entertained.
The spokesperson further emphasized that military courts play a vital role in the fight against terrorism and were established in specific circumstances where swift justice was required. Pakistan made it clear that its policies are solely based on national needs and the security of its people.
Pakistan has urged the international community to respect its judicial system and avoid interference in its internal matters.
