Garhi Khuda Bakhsh:<\/strong> In a compelling address on the 18th martyrdom anniversary of Benazir Bhutto<\/strong>, President Asif Ali Zardari<\/strong> recalled the critical role that the famous slogan “Pakistan Khappay<\/strong>” (Pakistan is needed) played in securing the nation’s future following Benazir Bhutto’s tragic assassination<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

He proudly declared, “Alhamdulillah<\/strong>, Pakistan is safe, functioning, and will continue to prosper indefinitely.”<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Reflecting on the May conflict with India<\/strong>, President Zardari praised the leadership of Field Marshal Asim Munir<\/strong> and the Pakistani Armed Forces<\/strong> for their quick, forceful response<\/strong> to Indian aggression. He emphasized that the retaliation sent a clear and resolute message to India, particularly to Indian Prime Minister Modi<\/strong>, that Pakistan\u2019s strength and resolve<\/strong> should never be underestimated.<\/p>\n

Zardari stated, “The response made it clear that Pakistan takes any threat seriously and will not back down.”<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

As the inheritor of the legacies of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto<\/strong> and Benazir Bhutto<\/strong>, Zardari reiterated that both he and his party, the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP)<\/strong>, are always prepared to defend the country and make any sacrifice necessary for its protection.<\/p>\n

He reminded the audience that the Bhutto family<\/strong> has always faced challenges head-on, never hiding in bunkers. \u201cMartyrdom comes in the battlefield, not in bunkers,<\/strong>\u201d Zardari said, reinforcing his commitment to defending the nation.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Zardari made it clear that he is ready to sacrifice everything, including his life, to defend Pakistan. He proudly stated that the PPP<\/strong> alone has the strength and resolve to challenge any adversary. “If anyone dares to harm Pakistan, they will face a strong response,” he declared, underscoring his unwavering dedication to the country\u2019s defense.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

On Pakistan’s ongoing challenges, Zardari acknowledged the country’s difficulties but assured the public that these problems would diminish with time.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on the past, he criticized PTI founder without naming him and said that a “foolish” individual had damaged the country’s international standing over five years. However, he emphasized that efforts are now underway to rebuild and strengthen Pakistan’s global relations.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

President Zardari concluded by reaffirming that the PPP<\/strong> remains fully capable of protecting Pakistan<\/strong>. He assured the public that the party would continue to play a vital role in ensuring the country’s stability<\/strong>, security<\/strong>, and prosperity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
